Oar's Rest
A small village near the southern border of what was once the Kingdom of Korvald, Oar's Rest used to rely on its trade of southern spices and the like to Issenkald. Now, the town attempts to make a living by selling coal down south, but poverty reigns.
Government
The settlement is run by a small group of Etherian soldiers lead by a Shieldcaptain. They ensure peace amongst the people and their defense against monsters. There is also a handful of trusted people who are trusted by the majority of the families that make up the village, who advise the Swordcaptain in his decisions.
Defences
The village ensures it's safety by elaborate walls with posted guards. They are desperate to avoid attention from any dangerous monsters, but they are just south enough to avoid orcish raids.
Industry & Trade
They sell coal to the southern cities, especially Fynderth. Apart from that, their fishing and hunting yields enough to feed the rest of the village.
Infrastructure
The thorp is built on the side of the slow-moving icy Fallrose Beck, with poles going down into the water to stabilize the buildings. There are several routes up the mountain from there, as well as homes built in the rock. The village moves here during rough winters.
Assets
Several mines that once gave many precious gems, but now only yield coal. A direct line to the ruins of Issenkald (which isn't worth much anymore) as well as several cities towards the south.
Guilds and Factions
The Dawn Legion influences the course of action greatly, but the council often opposes them.
