Innkeeper
The Miner's Mug Inn hasn't been some long standing business passed down from generation to generation, it only came into existence due to your grandfather.
Your grandfather came from a long line of miners, so he became a miner like most men from his neighborhood were. It wasn't exactly his favorite thing to do, and given the hard work, long hours and dangers (natural and otherwise) it's understandable that he wanted something better for his own family.
So he saved, scrimped, went without and eventually one day he'd saved enough money to buy himself a small building to open up his own business. He'd always remembered that the first thing miners did after work was go get drunk, so why not open up a tavern? He was already friends with a lot of them so he'd at least have a small base to work with.
The first few months were a little shaky, but eventually he started turning a profit. It was more than breaking even, but with another child on the way he had to do better than that. He took into consideration the number of merchants who traveled to the city, and thought expanding the business to accommodate them would bring in more revenue.
Building room additions and making his business into an Inn was a good idea, but it was still primarily a tavern at heart in a working class area. Most traveling merchants didn't want to endure the rabble rousing of drunken miners during the night, especially the snobbier ones from the Delantium Kingdom. Luckily there were customers your grandfather hadn't consideredÂ…adventurers!
Wandering adventurers became a more common sight in Klyton over the years. They were brought there for several reasons such as exploring the mountains, hiring themselves out as mercenaries for the Elven-Sotakan war or just stopping through on their way to Hessla. These types are used to roughing it and something like a little drunken revelry isn't going to bother them one bit, in fact they tend to engage in it themselves quite a bit.
When your grandfather died, your father ended up taking over the business. He more or less has continued on a conservative path with it. He doesn't take as many business chances as your grandfather did, probably because he doesn't have to as it now provides a steady income.
He does do a lot of saving since like your grandfather he believes in providing a better life for his children, namely you. If he and your mother have it their way you'll be going to Klyton University where you'll study medicine.
Whether you achieve their wishes or not remains to be seenÂ…
