Additional Information

Staircases to access the upstairs are just off of the restaurant and commons. A winding upstairs hallway connects both staircases, and there are seven latching rooms off of it. They are The Seascape Room, The Sailor's Ease, The Trophy Room, The Cozy Room, The Pine Room, The Scaled Room, and The Sitting Room, which, while latchable, is set up as a seating area instead of a bedroom.

Going through a curtain just past the downstairs staircases leads to the back of the Krawling Kraken, where two identical massive hulking half-orcs rent private alcoves. Gwamf and Gwamph offer rental of a private alcove that each of them watch; it is only accessible by whispering a password to the half-orc guarding it. The private alcove costs 5,000 to rent for one hour.

Searching around the back of the Krawling Kraken may reveal a hidden area that includes two lobster fighting pits and a brawling pit.
