Message: <blockquote data-quote="silentspace" data-source="post: 1211512" data-attributes="member: 14316">Rowyn's comment about missing her home got me thinking.  The Duchy of Rogan is about 90 miles E-W, and 180 miles N-S.  It's bordered on the west by the Diamond Mountains, east by the Severin Forest, south Shillen proper, and north by the wilderness/borderlands leading to Goruka.  The Trade Road is 20-30 miles from the forest.  One day I'll have to make a nice map for you guys.  The Diamond Mountains and the Severin Forest are considered part of Shillen, at least by the ruling Council of Five.Zanock and Dunathar come from somewhere along the Diamond Mountains near the south of Rogan.  I've played around with the idea that Dunathar's dwarves wiped out Zanock's orcs <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />  Bert comes from the Duchy of Veln, on the Tand River, a few hundred miles south and east of your current location.  Alan comes from a town only 20 miles to the west of Carodan.  He will have visited Carodan before.  Rowyn's village is east of Flinock in the Severin Forest.  Zanock, Dunathar, Bert, Alan and Rowyn were all travelling away from their homes for a while, and were staying in villages just south of Flinock, where they met up with the caravan.Etherial's Ivory Brotherhood is located along the south western edge of the Severin Forest, also not far from Flinock.  (I may keep him as an NPC, I'm undecided.)  Devan's small farming community is not far from where your last caravan stop was (ambush location).  Manzanita, who has a more urban background, could be from Masar, the largest city in the Duchy, about 30 miles to the west of the same caravan stop.</blockquote>
