The bouncers at the Low Lantern are brawny former sailors of the Captain's acquaintance—tall, imposing, and able to tie troublemakers in knots. Their main function is to be silently intimidating to prevent any troublemaking before it happens. The people that guests really must be wary of are the bartenders. All the Captain's bartenders are kenku. These raven-black birdlike people seem more unsettling than threatening. Most patrons barely look at them twice. However, anyone who knows history knows that the first kenku came to Faerûn as assassins, and though most kenku pursue other professions, the Captain's kenku are certainly members of that sinister order, able to quietly and quickly remove any serious "problems" from the bar.
This strange, slightly savory cocktail is a favorite of the kenku; it's dark, elegant, and sinister. As long as the Low Lantern remains, this drink will be on the menu.
