The city has 3 castles; 4 guild halls; 16 inns; 12 brothels; 9 breweries; 8 armorers; 4 stonemasonry shops; 5 butchers; 6 leatherworkers; 4 tanners, 1 lumber yard; 2 grain warehouses; 5 blacksmiths; 2 jewelers; 1 ore processing plant; 2 banks; 1 glassblower; 4 churches; and 1 cartographer.  Note:  The present "League of Assassins" module, posted on both the Story Hour and Plots & Places message boards, will include a group from these three dwarven communities.  The leader of the group will be the King of Highforge.  He will bring with him two military units, one from each of the adjacent allied dwarven lands, that will also include some non-dwarven troops.  From Fort Burin will be dwarves and orges and from Fort Drundarr will be dwarves and halflings.   They will all arrive together in Jawltorn via a dimension door cast between Ravensgate and the Jawltorn Wizard’s Guild (which has a Ravensgate wizard as a member).  The Ravensgate mage Muriel and her raven companion will accompany them.</blockquote>
