Eisley

Eisley is a fortified outpost that is always on guard for monsters emerging from Dankmire, the Iron Hills or the Dreadwood. It serves as a key stopover point for travelers venturing inland towards Oakenfell from settlements along Thera's Bay. The community is dominated by a small keep set atop a hill that overlooks the forest it borders. A few farms cluster around it, the locals relying on the royal garrison to keep them safe from marauders.

The outpost is commanded by its castellan, Valtan Nabor, who has led many successful raids into the Dreadwood. Valtan is a grim figure, always cognizant of the threat posed by the forest's denizens. He sees trouble behind every piece of news, and he keeps the small garrison of mounted warriors and rangers headquartered here ready to charge out at any moment's notice.

Eisley provides a safe resting place before and during expeditions into the Dankmire Marshes or the Dreadwood. A bounty board located just outside Eisley's gates offers rewards for aberrations, elementals and outlaws slain in the region, as well as larger rewards for the capture or killing of specific monsters or criminals.
