Klosterban
Notable people & places:
-
The village of Klosterban is located between Erlefort and Altenheim and located near the dense forest of Unternacht. A small but lightly fortified settlement with about 60-70 villagers.
It mostly consists of farm families that have their fields outside (some have small vegetable gardens and animal pens inside but that’s it). The have their harvests and try to sell of extras to passing traders or the bigger cities.
A small wood cutters camp is located a little bit further down the road and the crews often eat, drink, sleep and trade in the village.
A nearby small stream in the woods that ends in a small swimming lake offers some fish to add to the diet.
The town is surrounded by a simple palisade and a wooden guard tower. 2 simple large wooden gates (more like barn gates) provide the 2 points of entry. A small group of hearthguard keep watch and fend of possible beasts or raiders (5 soldiers and their sergeant).
Klosterban was established 74 years ago, all starting with a single family farm. Which grew and prospered until the village you see today. The Klosterban family settled here and toiled on the land for many generations, paving the land and promoting it for the settlers. Their old domain and “mansion” is slightly separated from the village, as the family was caught up in the war of the four divines and the grounds were left abandoned and considered a bad reminder and bad luck (also bad rumors). It’s become kind of a heritage point, a reminder of a past but not a necessary part.
