Brackish

A small settlement found where the river of the same name meets the The Sea of Wrath, the population of Brackish is fairly split.  About half of its inhabitants work the land, and those trades which it supports (farming, butchering, hunting, felling trees, etc.) while the other half plies the dangerous seas to be found just south of The Corridor of Wrath.  It is one of the northernmost civilized settlements to be found in the entirety of The Corner, and it is tucked up right under the foothills of The Shifting Moutains.  While it does trade with the outside world, primarily with the help of its fishing fleet, it is not exactly the first place that new fashion or news stops at either.  The main village itself only houses about 30 to 40 families, with perhaps half that number again to be found spread along the road and coastline nearby.  The furthest of these which still consistently associates with the village is that on Raven Hill.

Demographics

Half of the village is composed of fishermen, and the other half of farmers. It is not a wealthy place.

Government

This is on the very outskirts of civilization in The Corner, and the north eastern corner of their lord's fief. As such, it still gets taxed, and is generally protected, but otherwise fairly isolated.

Defences

None

Industry & Trade

Fish and farms. The make most of their own necessities (furniture, boats, clothes, etc.)

Infrastructure

Has a small fisherman's port, and a road that goes south along the coast. The old military road along the border travels west and is just north of town, but it doesn't really go anywhere, so nobody really uses it.

Geography

On the coast of The Sea of Wrath right near where The North Sea meets The South Sea, so theoretically near the nigh-legendary The Corridor of Wrath. There are cliffs to the north of the village which run into The Shifting Moutains, and the river Brackish runs into the sea on the north side of town.

Natural Resources

Mostly fish from the sea, water from the river, and lumber from the edges of the woods to the west
