Starkwall

Starkwall is a fortified watchtower which now forms the base camp for the local militia units. These soldiers patrol the eastern banks of the Artonsamay, overlooking the Bandit Kingdoms. A wooden palisade wall has been erected around the fortified tower, and militias are deeply suspicious of any who approach this potentially dangerous borderland. Morale here is not good, for the militia are poorly equipped and many of the ordinary soldiers find their wages are paid late and their food rations are meager and of poor quality. The most interesting person at Starkwall is Skandar Gundersson, a wily bandit who now advises the militias on hunting the raiders from his former homelands. Skandar is detailed in the "Characters of Nyrond" chapter.
