Plainsbrook

In the land between Limani and the raging elven tribes of Full Moon lies Plainsbrook. Founded nearly 700 years ago, Plainsbrook is a town that had used its perfectly positioned foundation as a trading route. Traveled by the likes of humans, elves, dwarves and more, Plainsbrook was able to remain stable throughout many years. But since the time of The Shadowing and the wreckage said to have been left behind from the Calamity Stone, Plainsbrook has become nothing more than a place to avoid. The town now is infested with traders, thieves and mobsters. Crime levels sore during the winter months and the population dwindles with each passing year. With very little to offer to the outside world due to the massive swamp that lays north of Plainsbrook, the town has been singled out by the masses. Although the locals of Plainsbrook continue to hope that the once prosperous trade route returns, the future is bleek. Only a few strong minded adventures and heavy willed folk remain in the area...the good days of Plainsbrook are thin.

Government

The government in Plainsbrook is low, and ultimately doesn't exist. There is a Magistrate, who does collect taxes whenever possible to help keep goods and clean water being imported, but even he is corrupt and often has his motions swayed by the heavy mob that reside in Plainsbrook. Most laws and actions are handled by the gangs that is in charge of each little district. These gangs are in a constant tug of war with each other and most issues are solved by the man who swings first.

Defences

Each man for themselves, unless a larger threat from the Smokefang Swamps occurs.

Industry & Trade

Miners from the neighboring mountains do use Plainsbrook as a place to reside during mining seasons. During the mining season Plainsbrook does raise its prices for all good and resources to help keep it afloat from year to year and season to season.

Infrastructure

With almost no infrastructure to really hold onto anymore in Plainsbrook, the residents of the area have an agreement to keep their town protected from the monstrosities that wonder into their town from the fog of the swamp.

Assets

It is said that Plainsbrook does have a deposit of Mythril below its ground, in the depths of the surface...although nothing has ever been truly recorded.

Guilds and Factions

The largest mob in Plainsbrook belongs to the Canker Mouths, a large order of thieves and backstabbers who dye their tongues black. Other gangs include the Dirks, Spikedrillers and the Snarl Coats.

Geography

A damp, moss covered city... Almost everything in town seems to have a light film of dirt covering it in some manner.
