      I did wonder why it was called the Faceless Rest, I wondered what that even meant. Then I examined the portrait behind the inn keeper.

      I think this is a case of bad translation, the painting behind the desk is described as a "faceless woman", but the painting isn't faceless, it's quite a strong face, with thick eye brows, a large nose, strong jaw line, and it's a man. I think it was meant to be named after a nameless woman, or a woman who's name was forgotten.

      Maybe the inn could be renamed to "The Nameless Inn", or we could hold a poll to think of a different name, which could be fun?

      Also behind Tabby Teapot the painting describing a "Golden Goose flying above an ivory tower", is a dragon flying above a castle.

      Neither issue is pressing, but it does kind of make the module look rough around the edges.

        @qtimeparadox The previous bartender had a conversation that explained the name, resent events removed her.

          Also, we only have so many appearances for placeables in our haks.

            @qtimeparadox This is one of those 'we only have so many appearances.'

            While we could, in theory, find a faceless picture and create a 3d model for our own haks, then modify the appearance number for the placable and connect it to the mdl file required...

            It's not worth the time/effort for a single picture. This is hours of work which is better spent on something more...

                @toportime Really? Ok I guess that sort of explains it :)

                I actually thought that this module was translated at some point, because I noticed a few errors in tenses and small mistakes with plurals from time to time in different conversations.

                I did make my own Faceless Woman though haha.

                  Some of our DM's don't have English as a first language, so there are some minor grammar errors.

                  they don't mind them being pointed out though, so please do bug report any you find.
