Area Lore/Back Story
This fishing village on the eastern banks of the Sava River was founded by the half-elven Seremela family over one hundred years ago. In its earliest days it found quick prosperity, from verdant crops grown in the rich earth and abundant fishing in the river. Unfortunately, Riverhold's wealth drew the eye of bandits who saw it an easy jewel for the plucking. The founding
family was slain and the fishing fleet demolished. Few survived the battle, and since that time, despair and poverty has been a thick blanket weighing down the spirit of those who eake out their living. Half-elves that choose Riverhold as a home will find that the fields and pastures to the south of town are still a wonderful place to hide in troubling times and might seek out the wreckage of the Seremela mansion. Fishing is still the primary way that citizens make their living and fish in its many varieties is found in most of the stores. The Lemming, a small inn, provides a place to rest, or to toss back a pint or two after a long day at the river. Due to the mixed bloodline of the founders, all races are welcome in Riverhold.
General Information/Trivia
