Tilmere
Tilmere is Located almost centered between Shivershire, Cullfield and Varei. This prosperous town is an assortment of humans and halflings but mostly a gnome population is found here. Some of the up-and-coming inventors will travel here in hopes to study with some of the master tinkerers that call Tilmere home. Peaceful but far from being normal, as the gnomes have seen fit to improve upon almost everything there is inside of this town. Including transportation, water pressure systems, rapid deployment boats to almost anything imaginable. If you are looking for unique inventions and devices this is a good place to visit, just make sure you read the fine print on the warranties when dealing with the tinkerers.
During the daytime, the town is alive with busy work as gnomes try to improve on improvements, the halflings tend to their farms and the other races work in harmony to keep up in this lively town. Once the sun sets, there are numerous taverns and restaurants filled with laughing customers. It's a fairly normal routine here to work hard and play hard, plenty of bards and cooks to be found here because of this town’s simple logic as well. Most visitors here are either traveling the land, stopping in for shopping or taking vacation to sample the foods and drinks the town has to offer.
There is of course an Imperial Guard barrack here to guard the town and to uphold the law but for the most part the Empire does not interfere as much here. There are almost never any troubles here and really no reason for the Empire to get involved too closely with the town. They also have plenty of Imperial contracts involving wines, ales, foods and other supplies which are almost always met ahead of schedule.
Here is also a gnome college that has many different areas of study from inventing, tinkering, alchemist, engineering, alchemy, gem cutting, music and other trade skills. Many have traveled here to attend this college if their application is accepted into the school. Getting into the school can be a little difficult as there is a waiting list of students trying to get in, the next closest colleges are located in Talsworth and Cirrane. The college board here has been trying for years to recruit Redman from SENDER as a professor for years, this is his hometown.
It is also one of the two ports which is closest to the haunted islands off the coast, this does attract plenty of tourists that come here to take guided ship tours of those islands. Tourism does account for a small part of the town's annual income, so plenty of places to buy souvenirs, places to rent and other normal tourist attractions to be found here. As the islands are off limits to anyone without processing special permits, they can offer tour guides by boat. These tours take most of the day, sailing around the outside of the islands enjoying a nice meal and drinks while tour guides tell wild tales of the islands past.
