Mourmans Pothole

Mourmans Pothole is built around a small oasis in the northeastern reaches of the The Sanguine Wastes, in a hollow cannyon between some sand dunes, the location offers quite the respite from sandstorms and other natural phenomena. Mourmans pothole is a small but flourishing rest stop, frequented by caravaneers and travelers alike. It offers a roof, restocking of supplies and a warm mug of ale for those weary souls who enter its premises.

Government

Mourmans Pothole is run by a Helmut Skavilder, on orders of the Caravans guild in Marquadesh. The village, a rest stop one might call it, is funded by the caravans guild and exists as one of the first resupply spots in the Sanguine Wastes en route from Marquadesh. Helmut runs the day to day affairs of the village, though he takes orders from the guild. A supply caravan is sent out from Marquadesh once a month, bringing freshwater, food and other necessities.

Defences

Towers

Two old and ragged towers stand watch on the sand dunes that surround the pothole, made of sandstone bricks and thatched roofs coated in clay.

Industry & Trade

Besides the Inn, Smithy and General store that generate income for the pothole, it is common for the various caravans that stay there to offer their wares for sale. They do so in the outskirts of the town, setting up tables and benches around there tents to haggle for wares.
