Foxglove Manor
Built nearly 80 years ago (4604AR) by a Magnimar merchant prince named Vorel, Foxglove Manor was one of the first homes raised along the Lost Coast. While constructing the manor, Vorel went into financial difficulties and was forced to borrow money from his partners.
Twenty years later, in 4624AR, When nothing had been heard from Foxglove Manor for days, rescuers sent from Sandpoint found Vorel, his wife Kasanda and a newborn baby, as well as all their servants, dead of a mysterious disease. The house was shuned by everyone and rumors of it being cursed abound.
The building stood vacant for nearly 40 years before Traver Foxglove decided to move his family into the manor to reclaim his heritage and expunge the sour taint of the house’s reputation. His wife Cyralie gave birth to Traver’s only son Aldern not long after they moved in. For 6 years, it seemed as if whatever was wrong with the manor had corrected itself. Traver’s son and daughters were growing into fine young aristocrats and his fortunes seemed to be booming.
In 4693AR heavy smoke arising from a fire at the manor was seen as far away as Sandpoint, and when townsfolk arrived to investigate, they found the servants’ outbuilding burnt to the ground and Traver dead by his own hand. His wife’s body was found burnt and dashed against the rocks below. Cowering in a second-floor bedroom, though, the townsfolk discovered the Foxglove children Aldern and his older sisters Regina and Martha. The children where sent to Magnimar, and the manor was empty once more.
Two years ago, in 4705AR, young Aldern Foxglove, now rich and popular begins petitioning in Magnimar to reclaim his family manor, and by 4706AR he arrive in Sandpoint and starts recruiting laborers for the many necessary reconstruction and renovations necessary.
On Starday, 11th of Abadius 4707, Aldern Foxglove marries Iesha and together they move into the manor.
