Walther Voight runs the Strasser Biergarten near Swansea in Wales.
Overview[]
Just a few miles northwest of Swansea, bordering the Llanrhidian Sands and a large area of salt marshes, is the town of Llanelli. Llanelli is home to a wildfowl and wetlands center, as well as a large German-style pub, the Strasser Biergarten. Long wooden benches and tables fill the lantern-lit patio under a striped awning. Customers order their food and drinks inside the simple wattle and stone hut that serves as a kitchen, but barmaids circulate for refills in the busy summer season. A big man from Bavaria named Walther Voight owns the place. He churns out both the brews and the best soft pretzels in Wales. His wife Irma and daughters Else and Berta do most of the cooking and cleaning. Portions are generous and reasonably priced, and customers always come back for more.
This isn't surprising. Walther is in fact a low-level Ferectoi, a Fomori Larva of the Wyrm. His home brews and pretzels use a tainted yeast that is both moderately addictive and euphoric, until it wears off and leaves a person totally useless for at least 12 hours. Most victims chalk up their hangovers to jet lag or overindulgence. Meanwhile, Walther gladly keeps doling out his tainted brew and pulling in heaps of cash. Thus far, his family doesn't suspect his foul nature, but it's probably only a matter of time before something really awful happens to them.
