Brindlewood is a boring name for a boring little villiage.

It's on a small lake. Everyone is pretty friendly. Nothing much happens. They farm, they fish, they they trade their goods with traveling merchants. It's like a place an old adventure might retire. It seems pretty safe despite being close to the woods. People there are the kind that always tell you to not ask for too much and that it's best to stay close to home and family no need to get a big head. No need for ambition. Stay....stay here.....one of us one of us!
Lol awesome. Okay that helps. Just to know background options and stuff. It sounds like Brindlewood has a fishing industry being by a lake, farmers and such in the surrounding countryside, hunters and woodsman, maybe a small logging operation, and probably some quirky druidic or "less civilized" folk who like being near Brindlewold but prefer the seclusion of the nearby woodlands? And of course the usual assortment of tradesmen and craftsmen you'd expect to find in any smallish rural D&D town?
Yeah it's at least 90% human in this region too. just fyi

like kentucky or something haha
Also magic exisists but it's not part of everyday life for most people.
People know it's around but it's kind of a novelty in this area.
I like that. I'm imagining these Brindlewooders being kind of a down home, tight nit superstitious sort of community who don't really like a lot of drama in their relatively peaceful lives and maybe think a life of adventure, filled with magic and monsters and all-o-that HULLABALOO, is for the stupid and foolhardy few. Weak minded, self agrandizing narcissists with delusions of grandure who can't really do anything else because they have no aptitude for, or interest in, a more practical and worthwhile way of life hehe.
