Glacierwind Valley

Map:
Spoiler: ShowHide




Glacierwind Valley is a free kingdom. The capital is Serrendale and it is ruled by King Grannot. It is split by the Zamarck River. Boats go as far south as Palsch before the river south becomes difficult to sail, and the southern swamps are unexplored due to a Malboro infestation. To the north lies the Zamarck Kingdom.

Serrandale (Riverside castle with docks): Capital and port of Glacierwind Valley. Best shopping in the valley, but the high quality shops require a special permit.

Sparrow's Tomb (Tomb in the western mountains, surrounded by snowy trees): Resting place of an unnamed hero of the Mystra Empire. Said to be haunted. At the least, it is known that zombies and ghouls favor the cave passage to Sparrow's Tomb.

Paslch (Two sided river town with the bridge): Ramshackle town of settlers. The bridge is patrolled by the military, but the town on either side of the river is much less regulated.

Pasturburg (Town in the southeastern plains): Largest collection of farms in the area. Generally quiet unless monsters come on down to make trouble.

Galimond (Forest castle): Old fortress left behind by the Mysta Empire, converted into a regional focus for the logging trade. The fortress is made of stone, but it's said that the inner parts are made of metal, of all things! But the common folk are banned from going deep within, so it's probably just bar gossip.

Various caves: The mountains of Glacierwind Valley are lousy with caves of all type. It's said they contain monsters, treasure and even unknown ruins of the Mysta Empire. The only thing for certain is the monsters, since many people who go exploring never come back.

Pasturburg Fens: To the south is swamps and rapids, infested by Malboros. There's little exploration of these lands for that reason. Malboros are powerful monsters, but they stay in their swamps.
