Phandalin
Welcome to Phandalin!
The frontier town of Phandalin is built on the ruins of a much older settlement. Hundreds of years ago, the old Phandalin was a thriving human town whose people were firmly allied with neighboring dwarves and gnomes. Then an orc horde swept through the area and laid waste to the settlement, and Phandalin was abandoned for centuries.
In the last three or four years, settlers from the cities of Neverwinter and Waterdeep have begun the hard work of reclaiming the ruins of Phandalin. The new settlement is home now to farmers, woodcutters, fur traders, and prospectors drawn by stories of gold and platinum in the foothills of the Sword Mountains. The arrival of a white dragon threatens to destroy all that they’ve worked to rebuild.
Nestled in the rocky foothills of the snow-capped Sword Mountains is the mining town of Phandalin, which consists of forty or fifty simple log buildings. Crumbling stone ruins surround the newer houses and shops, showing how this must have been a much larger town in centuries past. Phandalin’s residents are quiet, hard-working folk who came from distant cities to eke out a life amid the harsh wilderness. They are farmers, stonecutters, blacksmiths, traders, prospectors, and children. The town has no walls and no garrison, but most of the adults keep weapons within easy reach in case the need for arms should arise. Visitors are welcome here, particularly if they have coin to spend or news to share. The Stonehill Inn at the center of town offers modest lodging and meals. A couple of doors down from the inn, posted outside the townmaster’s hall, is a job board for adventurers.There are several hi-lights around town, worthy points of interest, that you should include in the itenerary of your visit! The most prominent Inn in town is run by Toblen Stonehill and it called Stonehill Inn -- fair prices for food and rest for weary travelers! For general foodstuffs, rations, and items of the mundane, stop by Barthen’s Provisions for all your General Store needs! For weapons of armor of the vastly non-magical variety, Lionshield Coster will provide you will all you need at fair prices. Need to sell some ore, gems, or buy supplies especially handy to miners, Phandalin Miner’s Exchange should meet your needs. For the blessing of Tymora to gain that extra bit of luck we all need, the Shrine of Luck is the place to stop. Looking for quests or to speak with the Townmaster? The Townmaster’s Hall is waiting for you at the center of town.
