Hope Springs

Hope Springs is a frontier town bordering The Squalid Plateau.

It is the last known source of drinkable water heading west.

Hope Springs is a haven for those seeking to disappear. Striceland's government officially claims Hope Springs but there hasn’t been a representative or a tax collector for generations.

Demographics

Hope Springs is for the truly independent, for those looking to escape civilization, and for those looking to lay low from the law. It is also the final watering hole before the stretch of desert leading to Yegg Hollow.

A few entrepreneurial souls have established a general store, stable, inn, and tavern, looking to exploit the vulnerable criminals that make their way that far west.

Government

There are no real rules in Hope Springs. It is considered in poor taste to accost a local business owner or to conduct yourself in such a manner as to create hardship for all.

The local militia hasn’t met in years and no government representatives have visited in at least twice that long.

Defences

There are no defenses in Hope Springs. There has never been a need for them. Who would want this town?
