Thundertree

Thundertree was once a community that prospered on the edges of the Neverwinter Woods.[5] During the founding of the village, Thundertree was defended from monsters by the hero Palien of Neverwinter, who would be honored with a statue in the town square.[6]
At some point, the village came under attack by an orc raiding party, killing most of the inhabitants at the time.[7]
When traveling across the North in the mid-to-late 14th century DR, Volothamp Geddarm did not get a chance to properly visit the village and so only briefly discussed it in his guidebook, Volo's Guide to the North.[8]
However, when Mount Hotenow erupted in the Year of Knowledge Unearthed, 1451 DR, it devastated the small town.[5] In the wake of the disaster, ash zombies drove off any who survived the eruption.[2] During this time, Thundertree lay in overgrown ruins, with many of its stone houses lacking roofs and lying open to the elements, though some remained mostly intact. It was disturbingly quiet.[5]
In the Year of the Ageless One, 1479 DR, the Ashmadai leader Favria set up camp in the ruins of Thundertree, living within a ruined inn's underground wine cellar. From there, she tracked activity in both Neverwinter and everywhere the Thayans employed their cult.[9]
By 1491 DR,[note 1] the zombies had crumbled to dust, but strange magic had turned the local flora into twig blights
In year 1 AG Thundertree was freed from Venomfang a dragon that resided there and made Thundertree its home. Thundertree is now the home to the leader Isac Gringle and Mirna Drednar.
