Lerwick

Hawthorne Guild Outpost

1494 DR

In the Year of Twelve Warnings, Lerwick was destroyed following The March of the Dawn Titanevent, where the entity named Bohu was freed from its prison within the Graypeak Mountains. After the event, the adventurers from the Hawthorne Guild have gathered with members of the Emerald Enclave and built an outpost where the town of Lerwick used to be.

1492 DR -1493 DR

East of Waterdeep, past the old Forlorn Hills and through the beautiful Delimbiyr Vale, and even just beyond the mysterious Southwood lie the mighty Greypeak Mountains. Nestled amongst the foothills of these stone colossi that one may find what used to be a little town called Lerwick. A few years ago, there was little more to find there than ruins, but during 1492 DR, a new community began to flourish, given new life by the Hawthorne adventurer’s guild who began rebuilding it.

Lerwick was a progressive town, with more variety than one would find anywhere else in Faerûn. People of all shapes and sizes could be found living and working there. Even some of those that would be considered monsters elsewhere, from goblins and lizardfolk to the kobold tribe which used to live beneath the surface. Despite their differences, they all work together under the banner of the Hawthorne Guild.

Walking through the streets you are met with an almost overwhelming variety of sights, sounds and smells, where even the strangest of creatures would barely stand out. The streets are clean and tidy, thanks in part due to an ingenious sewer system that runs underneath, designed by kobolds and built by many of the guild’s members. Strong walls surround the town, and the military camp of the Lerwick Roses regularly send out patrols to keep the town safe, working alongside the Watch to this end. A hospital provides medical services and preserves the dead, while the great central All-Faith temple is there to provide a centre of worship for all the town’s religions. The Scales of Justice was formed, dedicated to maintaining the wellbeing of the common folk. And there is even a recently constructed adventurer-supported university, to provide education for all. Various inns and taverns exist of course, and there are even a few public bathhouses.
