Schrewsberry

Mayor: Miller Waynewright, Human, M, 50s, married with 12 kids from 14 to 32.
Sheriff: Hamil 'the Hammer' Hammersly, Dwarf, M, 60s, married with 6 kids from 17 to 30.

The town has 22 constables under the sheriff.
There are several liveries, many taverns, several blacksmiths, and three temples in Schrewsberry.
There are several dozen farms near town.

The Rhone River runs along the west side of town. There is only a single fishery, however. But iron sands are easy prospecting along the shallows of the river.

The King's Road runs through the center of town. There are many shops and a local bazaar built along the King's Road with side streets allowing access to various taverns, inns, houses, liver stables, etc.

pretty much your typical successful small town.

once the characters are completed their background info will help flesh out the town and surrounding farms and mills more and will be detailed in this thread too. similarly this thread will be updated with new and pertinent persons, place, and problems.

Samuel lives in a small cabin just outside of town which he inherited from the old hunter that raised him.

The smokehouses and hide processing facilities of the town are located inside the town but not too far from his home and he can be found helping out around there fairly often.

Benedict helps out at the temple of Padron where he also helps with security, not being a cloister. He's easy going and tries to help all who come to the temple for assistance. Sometimes the politics of the temple/township/laity get him down but he powers through with good deeds and good cheer.

Andar Silverblood was orphaned by his mother after a rather untimely pregnancy.  She was
rather deep in her cup one night when she was visiting her sister here in Schrewsberry.
Wound up tangled up with his father an Elven Ambassador traveling to the capitol.  She
managed to keep him unknown by visiting her sister here until the child was born.  He
lived with his aunt until she died of the pox.   Andar still lives in her home and
uses the place for his Bowyer/ Fletcher shop.  He has managed to gather and make several long bows.  He also has a large collection of arrows with several different fletching colors gathered from the local ducks and geese.  He has an unfounded repututation for keeping to himself.  He is well known around town and does several good deed for the local community.

In reply to Andar Silverblood (msg # 5):

there is no real reason for Andar to be shunned, apart from the town, or otherwise ostracized locally. He grew up in here, his family is from here, people here know him and grew up with him. it's home to him more than any other place in the valley. if you want to play him as a outcast you'll need a reason why, like bad family reputation, he got into some real trouble in the past, etc.

everyone should keep in mind that it assumed that you guys know each other from this town. it wasn't a request. it's part of the plot and story arch. everyone should be aware that if you want to be an outsider, do outside of this game.

Andar Silverblood:
It is said he lives in an old hollow oak tree about a mile from town, but no one knows but him.


I know where you live. I know all the woodland creatures hereabouts.

Schrewsberry

Uvaic is the son of a pair of dwarven adventurers/wanderers who came into town before he was born.  He grew up and built a reputation of coming through on his word but being a bit sharp-tongued.  He’s often seen in weapons practice when he’s not working the series of odd jobs that he managed to land and retain in spite of his occasional off comment.
