Foglemire
Foglemire is a small village on the western shore of Attleboro Bay in County Navania. It is known not just for its unusually large gnomish population, but also for the gadgetry and craftsmanship that comes out of it.
Demographics
Foglemire is a town largely populated by gnomes due to the proximity of the nearby Silentdale Mine. Just over 3/4 of the population are gnomish. Other groups that call Foglemire home include dwarves, humans, half-elves, a few elves, kobolds, and halflings.
Industry & Trade
While farming is certainly the most common source of employment, the trade from the nearby Silentdale Mine provides the lifeblood for the town. Small barges containing ore travel down from Silentdale via the Lashdail Stream where it may be stored temporarily or shipped to various ports from Foglemire.
Assets
Despite having such a small population, both literally and figuratively, Foglemire boasts 16 different business. These range from the local bakery to tailors to fishing boats. The village is home to 37 different farms and one large estate.
Geography
The town sits on the southern border of County Navania along the bank of the Lashfail Stream and Attleboro Bay. The southern bank of the stream is the County of Castleport The Bog of Oroworth lays to the west of town and often provides an unwelcome source of mosquitoes in the summertime. The terrain that Foglemire calls home is a gentle slope giving rise into the Amboro Hills.
Natural Resources
Foglemire doesn't have much in the way of readily available natural resources. However, due to its location downstream from Silentdale and its mine, it has developed quite the robust jewelry industry. The heavy gnomish presence in town has also contributed to quite a spectacular gadget culture as well, with crafts from the town being found far and wide across the kingdom.
