Tristian

Description
The village of Tristian is a small place filled with mostly farmers surrounded by mostly farmland of the Garmoth Valley. The residents are small in number, and their farm yield is not substantial, but they contribute to the Empire and the economy like everyone else.

Miles from any major city (the nearest is Nereth) and within several days travel of any major roads, the village is mostly self-sufficient. They are not without their secrets or interesting figures, though.

Other Important NPCs

 * 1) Yorik Redaxe - A gruff red Dragonborn hunter, he is not really a resident of the town. He occasionally passes through with pelts from animals he has hunted, various items and trinkets he discovered on his travels, or anything else he thinks he might hock to someone gullible enough to pay for it. He is very good at hunting, but not very good with interacting with people. He passes through the village every couple days, always on the move and traveling all the local villages.
 * 2) Henry Vorin - This local resident is a massive Human being who is not very smart. Rumor has it his parents dropped him on his head when he was a baby and he’s never been exactly right since. He is kind and helpful, almost like a child, but his size and strength (they think he has Giant blood in him) has kept him in work to anyone who needs a hand lifting or moving something heavy. Anyone in the village will throw him some coin for his help and he maintains a modest lifestyle from that.
