Vogler
The fishing village of Vogler clings to a spit of land reaching into the Vingaard River west of the city of Kalaman. Wooded cliffs overlook the community, and the only path from the north descends past the ivy-covered remnants of a crumbling stone keep. The village’s modest wooden buildings cluster around a quaint central circle along the riverbank.
Jutting into the river - out of place and seemingly time - stands an incomplete stone bridge of incredible artisanship. The structure clearly predates The Cataclysm, eclipsing its modern peers in size and sturdiness. The bridge crosses less than half the river’s width before giving way to a series of ropes and tethered rafts serving as ferries.
On the river itself, dozens of small boats drift along the slow, murky waters as the fishers of Vogler ply their trade.
Fishers, lumberers, hunters, and farmers live here peacefully, only occasionally interrupted by bandits or predators from the Northern Wastes. In addition to a volunteer militia maintained by Mayor Raven Uth Vogler, the village is ostensibly under the protection of Hinterlund’s capital, Maelgoth. This protection takes the form of a retired Knight of Solamnia, Becklin Uth Viharin, who’s stationed at the crumbling Thornwall Keep—now more a historic landmark than a true fortification.
