Stilben

Stilben
A shady town build around the Bay of K'Tawl on the Eastern Sea Shore of the kingdom of Tal'Dorei. Surrounded by a sprawling marshland, the air is ever sticky, humid, and uncomfortably warm. The ever-present sound of insects buzzing and distant bird calls mingle with the constant din of creaking wood, grumbling voices, and beasts-of-burden carrying cargo from the docks to the trade-lines. Money flows here primarily through a strong textile trade, an ever shifting black market (influenced heavily by what ships arrive to port), and a loosely kept set of laws that can be briefly “purchased” should they stand in your (or your business’) way. The social atmosphere is relaxed, the night life fairly lively, and there’s enough work to go around… especially if you specialize in mercenary work.

The Sunset Stride
Largest tavern within Stilben, where many of the blue-collar grunts of the local trades come to unwind. Music and laughter permeate the warmly lit interior, and a large job-board looms over the far wall.

The Vas Estate
A large, but not terribly lavish mansion built over 200 years ago by the Vas Lordship, one of the more powerful trade families that have held power in Stilben. Was once home to the heir to the Vas family fortune, Fendril Vas, but it is not known what became of the estate, nor the fortune, after Fendil was slain.
