A border town during the Last War, Cragwar changed hands no less than nine times, being held by Thrane, Breland, and Aundair. The site of numerous bloody battles, the town would have been abandoned long ago if not for the rich veins of silver and jewels found in the eastern Blackcaps. Cragwar serves as the base camp and trading center for dozens of smaller mining villages reaching back into the mountains. Those mines are the single largest source of mithral in western Khorvaire. House Kundarak’s influence has kept the town running and even profitable despite the battles to control the area. House Cannith also has a modest guildhall in the village, having always been a major buyer of rare metals to stock its forges.
