Strathmore

"“Welcome to Strathmore: The Toughest Town in Loch’Mel”"Strathmore is a small trading settlement located on the westmost mountainous border of the Loch'Mel region. It is the only significant settlement on the Verdant Trail connecting the Sun-kissed Road to Farborough, making it a popular rest stop for travelers and pilgrims alike.

History
The town of Strathmore is built on the ruins of a much older settlement. Hundreds of years ago, the old Strathmore was a thriving human town whose people were firmly allied with the dwarves and elves of the Strathmore Entente. However, the same orc horde that sacked the mines of the Vault laid waste to the settlement, and Strathmore was abandoned for centuries.

In the last seven or eight years, hardy settlers from the cities of Westspire and Farborough have begun the hard work of reclaiming the ruins of Strathmore. A bustling settlement has grown up on the site of the old town, and is home now to farmers, woodcutters, fur traders, and prospectors drawn by stories of gold and platinum in the foothills of the Jeweled Sierras.

In its recent history, more than a few bandits and brigands settled here as well, taking advantage of the fact that the area had no local lord or authority to chase them off. A gang known as the Dead Ones, lead by a mysterious figure known at the Skeleton King, controlled Strathmore for months, extorting and bullying everyone in town. Eventually they were run out, their leader defeated and the town rallied against them by a group of adventurers who would become known as the Heroes of Strathmore (or the Strathmore Four). Since then, the town has enjoyed a period of relative peace.
