The Land: Staunton Bluffs
is a small, isolated domain. A line of sandstone cliffs, running north to south, divides the land in half. The western region
is relatively flat and good for farming, with a few wooded patches. The bluffs rise above it. At their highest point, near
the center of the land, a castle is perched on a cliff. It is Castle Stonecrest, a haunted place.
Most natives of this domain live in modest white cottages, which are scattered
across the farmland. Staunton Bluffs also has one tiny settlement named Willisford. The village is located beside a river
in the west.
The weather in Staunton Bluffs is generally cold and wet. Mornings begin with
a misty rain or fog, but the skies often clear by noon. As the sun fades, the mists return. They spill off the bluffs and
settle over the farmlands, bringing with them the weird sounds of night.
The Folk: In comparison to
other domains, life is good here, albeit boring. As long as the folk stay away from the cliffs and Castle Stonecrest, they
can go peacefully about their business. They are not rich or even comfortable, but with hard work each day, they survive.
The culture level here is pre-victorian.
Encounters:
*Note- nothing horrid wanders west of the bluffs, but a few wild aniamals can
be found there that can be dangerous. The area east of the bluffs is haunted by bodiless undead.
