so me and my brother have a friend that for one reason or another, has a fasination with owning an inn when we play dnd. so we came up with this idea for a setting where you are the inn keeper, you inherit this inn(/bar) in the city of dunnj from a relative(ha get it? dunnj innkeeper like dungeonkeeper ha), as well as his depts. so the goal is to pay off your debt. so youd be able to do the in's and outs of catering to adventurers, selling information, giving out quests, kicking out angry drunks,that sort of stuff. this would all be from the point of view that your are the npc and are not amazing a combat and need to use your wits to survive some incounters. of course all that can and will get boring with out stuff happening. so i was thinking of creating events that would liven things up, like:
an ex wizard now chief that you hired experimenting on the food causing people to get sick, if they confront the chief he then attacks with a cheese golem (did i mention this wouldn't be a serious game, cause its not)
or 5 rangers each dressed in a different color come to stay at your inn one of them leaves a amulet with a picture of a dinosaur that is obvoiusly magical you can keep it an use it in case you need to defend your self, or return it to its owner, or sell it, later on a creature comes and terrorises the city, which is then fought off by the 5 rangers, depending on how you served them(the food they ate, the stuff you sold to them) depends on how they fair after he is defeated, a mystrous force makes teh monster giant sized and they use there amulets to summon a giant angel, but if you had kept the amulet they would be unable to do anything and have to defeat the creature another way making more damage in the process and punching a hole in the roof of your inn or something


so what do you guys think, do you think its do-able, do you think it would be fun? i also open to any improvements ideas you have with the bulk or the events, this is by no means a complete concept
plz leave comment im eager to hear what you have to say

Maybe one shot but I can't really see a campaign unless you're really into it.

The djinnkeeper is a good character for a DM to run -- so that friend should start DMing.
