Travlers Town

A Home to Those in Need

Travlers Town is a large comunity that sprang up in the wake of the first incursions over 150 years ago. It is one of the few remaining native settlements of the world, although it is comprised almost exclusively of outworlders.
Despite the town's size (bordering on "city") there are no roads suitable for carrage or horse within, only various sizes of walkway streets and the occasional alley.

Standing at their perenial guardposts at the front gate are the town's guards/greeters, Dolan and Goofus.
There is a small town guard that help protect the citizenry, but these two are always the first faces one see's upon entering the one and only gateway into town.

Districts

Travlers Town is separated into several distinct districts, each separated by walls and buildings for the overall security of the town. While most districts are lined with residential housing, they also each have specific types of businesses and shops that they cater to, with only slight overlap.

The inisde of the post office is a relatively small, clean, white walled room. Opposite the door is a long service counter with separaters making for 3 distinct areas where clerks can take packages for delivery.
On the right wall is a door, probably leading to the back area, as well as a cork board covered in notices, updates, and shipping prices (3gp 20gp per day's travel for light mail, 10gp 60gp per for heavy). On the left wall is the town's job board, another, larger cork board with posters for bounty quests, monster hunts, and other requests for adventuerers.

Story

First Encounter

When the party first approaches the town, it's in the midst of an attack!
The field is littered with broken bleached bones as a hoard of Skeletons has attacked. The town's anti-undead barrier keeps them from entering, but the gaurdsmen, Dolan and Goofus, as well as SubtraCo are still fighting them off just outside the gates.
As the PC's Party engages, 6 Skelleton Banditos emerge and attack the weaked heroes, tipping them off to the source of this attack: Miracle City
After the undead are dealt with, the PC Party is invited into the town to rest and discuss next steps. They can have a day or two to explore, but need to depart to Miracle City to deal with the waves of skelletons that have been spreading from there, or at the very least, reestablish contact with Presto's local informant, Frida Suarez.
The party will also be gifted the Energy Signature Radar, by Prof. Von Drake, to seek out the fragments of the Containment Artifact.
If asked why SubtraCo is not taking on this mission, aside from helping protect the town, they have their own mission to take on that will take them someplace else.
