[QUOTE="Terraism, post: 289808, member: 278"] Well, let's see... since the current year is 1372 (Year of Wild Magic,) fifteen years ago would be... 1357 (Year of the Prince.) In case you'd like a year on either side 1356 is the Year of the Worm and 1358 is the Year of Shadows, and the year of the Time of Troubles. Now, considering that the Western Heartlands is bordered by the High Forest to the north, Amn to the south, and the Anauroch and Cormyr to the east - that's a pretty large area, and it includes the Sword Coast. Not knowing exactly where you'd like to be there - hmm... Since you specified 'medium sized town,' I'm going to try to keep the list down to those with under 5,000 residents. (Note that this is just from the 3rd Ed CS; I'm sure there's quite a few more in 2nd Ed supplements, but...)[list] [*][b]Asbravn[/b] - Small city near the Sunset Mountains, Asbravn is a farming community, defended by the volunteer militia. [*][b]Beregost[/b] - A decent-sized town, Beregost is located near the ruins of an old magery school and presided over by the local temple to Lathandar. [*][b]Daggerford[/b] - A small village, Daggerford is a walled settlement with more than a few shrines & full temples. [*][b]Secomber[/b]Another small town, Secomber may very well be located in the North, rather than the Heartlands; however, while relatively peaceful, they are close enough to the High Forest to have their share of adventures. [/list]I'm not sure how useful any of these'll be, but... :) As for the Dalelands - I'd guess that, though it's not spelled out, your best bet's either Archendale or Battledale, with the largest cities being Archenbridge and Esembra, respectively. Hope this helps! [/QUOTE]
