TEXT: Dungeon Crawl Classics #11: The Dragonfiend Pact is set in
  the small hamlet of Welwyn, a quiet place beset by an
  unusual rash of robberies. This article describes the town of
  Welwyn and the people who can be encountered there. If
  you use Welwyn as the starting point for The Dragonfiend
  Pact, it can also be used as a home base for future adven-
  tures.

  The Barracks: A 15-foot-high stockade fence surrounds the

  sive tap room and 10 rooms available for rent. The food is
  simple but of good quality and the taproom is always busy at

  Shoddy’s Smithy: Iron Shoddy, a gnomish blacksmith,
  maintains a small shop in the town circle. His nickname does
  not reflect the quality of his work, but instead his propensity
  to iron shod everything. He mostly works with mundane
  items such as cookware, tools, and construction materials.
  However, he can forge weapons and has a limited amount
  for sale, at slightly high prices. He can also repair most
  weapons and armor. He does not have any silver weapons,
  stating a pouch of silver bullets was stolen from his shop a
  few weeks ago. 
  Shoddy is a gruff individual with tanned skin and black hair.
  He is usually covered with soot and sports numerous burns
  on his forearms. He is married and has four small children.
  His two favorite topics of conversation are iron ore and his
  kids, in that order.

  and runs an honest business. 
  Her shop also serves as her home. She maintains several
  herb gardens around her house and even takes a weekly
  jaunt into the nearby forest to collect other rare specimens.
  She has several herbal concoctions for sale, although not all
  actually have an effect.
