New gazetteer article! My players have made their way back to Fengate, so I'm fleshing out the village. In that town, I have a trade post for the Silver-Strand Company, a militant merchant organization that maintains trading posts, paved roads, and shipping routes all over Aquerria.
This village is very loosely based on the Barrowmaze town of Helix, but I've made it blend with my campaign world, so many changes can be found, but definitely pick up Barrowmaze if you can.
Got suggestions on how to make this location better? Drop me a line at archadethered@gmail.com.
2. Talbot's Tradehall: Willect Talbot is Strand-Sergeant of the Silver Strand Company, and stocks trade goods, tools, and equipment for the villagers of Fengate. He also acts as a master of the caravan post, coordinating shipments to Anzagort in the west and the Market Grove in the north. Strand-Sergeant Talbot is a no-nonsense, humourless man in his 40’s who extolls any who will listen of his time serving in the Strand Guard and his martial prowess.
Any goods worth up to 20 gp can be found here at standard rates, but anything more expensive has a 20% chance per week of being found, and will cost 150% of normal listed prices. If the item is not available, it can be acquired on order for 200% of normal listed price and 1d3 weeks shipping time, with half the price paid in advance.
The tradehall is guarded by four men-at-arms, which can be hired out as caravan guard or similar expeditions, at a rate of 2 gp per day plus food and lodging. It would take significant negotiation (DC 20 Personality check, plus at least a half share of treasure per soldier) in order to convince him to hire them out for anything more dangerous like exploring the Barrowmaze.
Lodging: dormitory cot 1 sp per night.
Stabling: 1 gp per day (includes feed and care for horses).
Services: written messages to Anzagort or Market Grove 2 sp, messages to Peln or further afield, 5 sp. Money exchange (up to 200 sp, 100 gp, or 50 pp) 10% of value. Travel with an armed caravan 2 gp per day’s travel per person. Shipment of goods 5 gp per wagon load per day’s travel.
