Fellfen

the Fellfen

Description

Marshy region with beautiful villages, but struggling with mafias and monsters

Geography

Large parts of lowlands, flats and swamps.

History

The Fellfen was the first region encountered by the first explorers exiting Mistwreath after the revelation shown to Saint Vergil.

The region was largely uninhabited by any humans, but a smattering outcasts from the Thundertop and the then fledgeling Ashen Empire were encountered. They made little impact on the emigrants, and were presumably converted to the Mistfaith and assimilated, or eradicated

The emigration expanded largely on the trailwards side of the big lake, and settlements on the leading side were regularly raided by the Beastkin from the forests there. It led to greater fortifications there, as can be seen in Stillwater Harbor which in its past has repelled all but a handful of assaults of the Khimer of Atun'Var.

Despite the new challenges the new land provided a bounty of mundane resourses like lumber, but also alchemical reagents and ingredients.

TODO:

• Why do they still live in the swamp?
  • "Not too bad when you get used to it"
  • Not everything is a swamp. That's mostly the sunwards bog, bordering the Verdant Veil

Trade

Notable exports are Allbell, Bone Reed, Dreamer's Star, Flayleaf, Leechwort and Wolfsbane, as well as several other less impactful herbs and spices.

There is also a thriving alchemical industry, profiting from selling potions and oils to neighboring regions, notably close ties between some of The Valsecchi Family and the administration in Wyvern Tor. The latter said to be providing wyvern poison in exchange for exotic potions.
