Defences
Vadbro is not heavily defended. They do not boast any walls or a large contingent of guards. With the Buffer of the Keilden Forest and House Hannover, they don't have to worry about aggression from the war with the Loyalist Houses of Aetius or Odinson. Nor are they close to the sea and subject to naval raids from House Udaku.
What they do have are a number of magical wards from the two apprentices of Baroness Kingwood. Also stationed within the village is a small collection of guards and hunters under house Kingwood's employ. These were stationed here by the Baroness to make sure nothing wild (whether beast or elf) threatens the northern road of House Blackharbour.
Industry & Trade
While Vadbro is a part of a major trade route, it is also nestled next to a particularly small copse of Ironwood and Lightwood. Loggers tend to the trees, while hunters, and farmers keep the surrounding areas clear and relatively prosperous in their food supply. Much of the benefits in this regard are due mostly from the management of the village counsel along with the caravans from Congregation of Merchants. These are protected in part by various mercenary groups and men loyal to the magisterium.
Infrastructure
Vadbro is first and foremost a trading village. It serves as a way station among the Northeastern Imperial Highway between Houses Blackharbour, Hannover, Odinson, Clan Oni, and Romanos. Many merchants and laborers ensure the continued flow of goods along this road between House Hanover and Blackharbour.
