The tavern is the place to recruit men and hear a few tales. The patrons are random, so you may find one or more of the following: | The tavern is the place to recruit men and hear a few tales. The patrons are random, so you may find one or more of the following: | ||
* A | * A[[Mount&Blade/Neutral|mercenary]] soldier; talking to him allows you to find how many comrades he has with him seeking commission, and how much it costs to recruit them. If your party is too full to hire all of them or if you do not have enough money, you will have the option of recruiting the maximum number that you can afford or accommodate (but not less). Hired Blades and Mercenary Cavalry are among the toughest neutral units (units belonging to no particular faction) that can be found in the game and thus are generally considered good investments. | ||

For a small fee, he can also tell you where the [[Mount&Blade/Companions|companions]] are, assuming they have joined your party at least once and subsequently left for some reason (ex. sometimes you and one or more of your companions become separated if you get captured by an enemy). | ||

He is not in Native games of version 1.00 (Retail version) to the latest patch (1.011). | * A Minstrel, who currently informs you that he is "not implemented in this version".

* A Ransom Broker, who will buy prisoners for 50 denars a unit, regardless of their faction allegiance or origin (or lack thereof), equipment and weapons they possess (oddly, these are retained by the unit even after being captured by you), or level of combat experience (ex. knight versus recruit). Additionally, Lords/Vassals cannot be sold to the ransom broker. | * A Ransom Broker, who will buy prisoners for 50 denars a unit, regardless of their faction allegiance or origin (or lack thereof), equipment and weapons they possess (oddly, these are retained by the unit even after being captured by you), or level of combat experience (ex. knight versus recruit).

He can only be found in the Nord Town of Tihr in all versions after 0.960 (This includes the retail/Steam versions, version 1.00 and later patches).
