Barony of Cathros
Nalgen
The official records show that the city of Nalgen was lost to famine in HR3103. No resettlement efforts have been made.
The goblins of the Rip claim that it was razed by Kremish the Fierce.
Medigen
Medigen was a prosperous walled city, able to repel aggressive attacks and weather extended sieges. It was responsible for six regional holds and Spanichen relied on them for a significant portion of their food. In HR2971 the city was taken by madness and plague, only a fraction of the population escaping before the gates were sealed. With the fall of Medigen, the Baron has relocated to Redlyn and has pressured the area for increased production until Medigen can be retaken.
Redlyn
Fort Braylos
Up until recently, Fort Braylos was an empty carcass looming over Redlyn, only used in emergencies to shelter against attacks. The people of Redlyn call the place Blood Keep and believe it to be either cursed, haunted, or both. The Baron has brought in craftsmen to restore Braylos so that she can use it as a temporary base, but she intends to retake Medigen and the people of Redlyn are eager for her to leave.
Braylos Keep
The original keep was largely a ruin gutted by fire and time, but the Imperial forces have made quick work of restoring it to function.
The Block
The Block is a modern construction of enchanted stone, erected quickly to house additional troops as well as a functioning prison.
Yewlough
The area beyond the High Road was cleared of forest when Fort Braylos was constructed, primarily to give a clear line of attack for archers. Under Imperial order the field was to remain unoccupied, but when the line of Braylen failed and the Imperial garrison was moved to Medigen, houses and shops sprang up. There was concern that the buildings would be razed with the return of the Imperials, but thus far the Baron has shown no interest in adhering to the edict and is pleased with the taxes collected as she prepares for a return to Medigen.
1 Lawstone
In accordance with Imperial rule, the Lawstone of Medigen was taken when Medigen fell and placed at Heartcross Square for all to see.
2 Redlyn Scigre
Before the coming of the Medigi, the Scigre was the law in Redlyn. Since the arrival of the Baron, Scigre Rethic and his constables have been largely reduced to couriers.
3 Broken Crown Inn and Tavern
4 White Lotus
Apothecary
5 Redhammer Smithy
Orloc Redhammer and his three sons run the smithy. He has an open contract to provide gear to Braylos, but he prefers to work on jobs for the people of Redlyn and is known to buy looted gear to send back to Braylos.
Sons: Dag (Keen Mind) Krian Yon
6 Goldwater Brewery
7 Saltstone Boarding House
8 Nana Shakti's Tea House
Shakti Grimflower is the matriarch of her family, running a full service restaurant in the shadow of the High Road with her four daughters and eleven grand-daughters, all forest and rock goblins who dress in Kalostan servant skirts. Their main draw is Darkflower tea, a sweet and peppery drink that causes mild numbness due to the trace amounts of belladonna toxin in the recipe. Drinking more than one cup produces light sensitivity but also imparts temporary Darkvision, leading to many of the Braylos guards taking to an afternoon tea before night watches.
There have been a number of deaths from poisoning but the fact that Nana Shakti is openly telling her patrons about the poison means that by Imperial Law she is not responsible if her customers die from her food. As it stands, there is some concern from the foreigners about the deaths but no obvious reason for action. This could change if they learn that the body count is significantly higher than they are aware. This is because one of the other side effects of the toxin is thinning of the veil, leading to some patrons being lost in the fey realm and being thought missing or deserting.
9 Pigsticker
Pigsticker is a popular barbecue house run by Danos and Orik Falloan. Danos is a human with the golden hair of a Highlander and the green eyes of a Kalostan, while Orik is an elfborn Kalostan with a long black braid that hides a steel weight that he can use as a weapon.
The Falloan pigs are well fed and well cared for, with two distinct breeds of swine being cultivated. A larger breed is raised for meat, while a smaller one has shown to be more intelligent and suitable as adept at herding and guarding other livestock.
Mara Falloan, waitress
10 Abbey of St Dahl
Temple of Mechi
Run by Seeker Uth Vil Fannath (female Orc Priest)
11 Ghian's Tannery
Ghian is a southron woman with a great deal of skill but not much talent for business.
The Stacks
The road into the stacks is extremely hard to spot, just faint wagon tracks in the tall grass. The Stacks are populated by two families who refused citizenship and went into the woods.
