Hillsfar
Located on the southern shore of the Moonsea, Hillsfar vies with Zhentil Keep for control of the region. Like many of the cities of the Moonsea, Hillsfar is crouched behind a circular, ringed wall with a single great gate high above the sea. Access to the city is restricted to individuals approved by the current government, and non-humans are strictly forbidden.
Demographics
Due to Hillsfar's Great Law of Humanity, only humans are allowed within Hillsfar. Thus, there is a very small, marginal non-human population.
Districts
Hillsfar has become infamous for its arena, a site of gladiatorial games. Non-humans are very likely to wind up there, along with anyone who proves unpopular with the established regime that day. Hillsfar is also notable as the second city in the Moonsea to grant an enclave to the Red Wizards of Thay.
Guilds and Factions
Red Plumes - a mercenary army of warriors that operated directly under the will of their leader the First Lord. They enforce the Lord's will within the walls of Hillsfar, even going so far as to harass its inhabitants, while regularly extorting them, in order to maintain a fear of their authority. They understand their limits however, never going as far as to warrant complaints that could be overheard by the First Lord.
