  • Description: This fortified stone watchtower is the tallest structure in Emberwood Village, and lies upon the road on the north edge of town. A two-storey wooden house abuts the base. Inside is a small kitchen, a mess hall, and about two dozen bunk beds. The tower has three main levels, one serving as a meeting room, another as armoury, and the final as a private chamber for the watchmaster. Outside the tower the Hooded Lanterns keep a small training yard and a modest stable large enough for six horses. Nearby, a covered wooden bridge crosses the narrow Timberwash stream and leads out of Emberwood Village towards Drakkenheim.

Background

This location once served as the initial outpost for the Hooded Lanterns until they successfully established a base of operations within the city proper, and the remnants of a much larger military camp are scattered about the nearby field. Now, only a small detachment keeps watch in Emberwood Village.

  • A small force of a dozen Hooded Lantern scouts are posted here, with one or two other squads out on patrol in the countryside.
  • Raine Highlash, an urban ranger with a predatory look about her, serves as watch captain.
  • Ansom or Petra Lang report in here regularly at the behest of the Lord Commander, and use the outpost to meet with mercenaries and adventurers.
