The Blue Water Inn was the central inn in Vallaki. It was owned and operated by Urwin and Danika Martikov. They regularly received shipments of wine from the Wizard of Wines Winery, operated by Urwin's father, until the shipments mysteriously stopped.
Regular patrons included the burgomaster Baron Vargas Vallakovich, the bard Rictavio, drunken brothers Nokolai and Karl Wachter, as well as local hunters Szoldar and Yevgeni.
