Lore & Background
Erin's arrival in this world was accidental, yet her impact has been monumental. Upon discovering the abandoned inn—which was in disrepair but had an intact roof—she cleaned it up and claimed it as her own, gaining the [Innkeeper] class after her first night and serving breakfast to Relc and Klbkch, along with unique abilities tied to hospitality and food preparation. Unlike many powerful figures who rely on combat prowess, Erin's strength lies in her ability to create a safe haven where enemies can become allies. Her Inn quickly became a neutral ground for various races, including humans, goblins, and other non-elf races, fostering diplomacy through shared meals.
