Bart Ender can be found in The Typical Tavern.

Before starting the Typical Tavern Quest:

"Howdy, Adventurer!" says the jovial man behind the bar. "I'm Bart. Bart Ender." "Nice to meet ya, Bart. I'm <Player Name>," you say. "The Council says you need some help with something."

"Yup. We've got a bit of a rat problem, y'see. Whole cellar's just thick with 'em. I mean, sure, there are always rats down there -- rats are a crucial part of the fantasy tavern ecosystem. Our problem is that there are too many rats. I need you to figure out why there are so many of 'em, and put a stop to it somehow." he replies.

"So there are... rats... in the cellar... of the tavern," you sigh, "and I have to kill, what, like, ten of them?"

"This isn't a simple matter of 'kill ten rats,' buddy. You need to track 'em back to their source and put a stop to it, whatever it is. Here, lemme unlock the trap door for you. Careful. It's dark down there."

During the quest:

"Hey, if it isn't ol' <player name>. Had any luck finding the source of those rats? We're all counting on you!

"If you get thirsty, feel free to order a drink."

---

Upon completing the quest:

"Rat faucet got left on, eh? That was probably Luanne. She was always doin' ditzy stuff like that. Right unfriendly to the customers, too. That's why I fired her and divorced her.

"Anyhow, thanks for your help, <Player Name>. Here -- by way of thanks, have a few drinks on the house!"

You acquire 3 flagons of Typical Tavern swill

After the quest:

"Hey, <Player Name>! Welcome back!

Thanks again for taking care of that rat problem. I'll tell you, though, ever since I fired Luanne, it's all I can do to keep this place running, much less keep it clean. If you ever wanna earn some extra Meat, I can always use help bussing tables, and mopping, and emptying spittoons and whatnot. Whaddya say?"

Sure, I'll help out. (5 Adventures)

You help Bart for a while. It's hard work, but with a little elbow grease, you manage to make the Tavern slightly less filthy. For your efforts, Bart thanks you and gives you a percentage of the day's tips.

You gain some Meat.

Nah, I'm just here to drink.

What'll it be, <Player Name>?
