Thornwall Village

Written by Janto

Originally founded by dwarves, it is now a mostly human settlement in the western mountains of the Commonwealth.   The Oak and Dagger Tavern    

History

In the Fourth Age, dwarves built a settlement here and lived with fae creatures inside a magic hedge wall. In the Fifth Age, an elvish kingdom conquered the area and destroyed everything except for the hedge wall. Humans probably took over the area in the Sixth Age and built the earliest structures here. The first records of a settlement called Thornwall, however, only date to the Seventh Age.   In the Ninth Age, a Ward Duke named Vaughn settled here and planned to revitalize the village, turning it into a regional center. He recently died (under mysterious circumstances) and his replacement, the current Ward Duke, has taken residence somewhere else. Quite quickly, Thornwall has lost many of the nobles who moved here to be close to Vaughn.   The recent intensification of the war with Pezzlio has made any citizens with Pezzlian ancestry pariahs. Many have moved away from Thornwall. This and the noble exodos means the village has a lot of empty properties.

Government

Mayor, who oversees a Constable.   The current mayor is Mayor Hayward and the current constable is a Pezzlian named Brom.

Infrastructure

The Temple of Huvoi maintains the only official structure for worship in the village. Its head cleric is Themis. A few other shrines are scattered around the settlement including those to Balshora (#31) , Miklay (#113), Vidur (#97), and Krella (#9).   The Constable oversees the Village Watch (made up of volunteer citizens who do light guard duty, mainly at the thornwall) and the Villiage Militia (professional fighters who do police work and keep the peace).
