Ridgerun
Ridgerun is a tiny town, consisting of maybe 100 people. Over the recent months it has grown from about 20 people to its current size after the nearby mine was bought by Tid Gildan, a wealthy merchant from Bazit.
The town is sat right up against the Barrier Ridge to the south and east and on the edge of the massive Duskpine Timberland to the north. Looking out east is the Barrier Plateau. The Godsroad Highway runs right by the town, though much of it is unguarded when travelling further south, and even well armed caravans often find themselves in trouble when traveling through the Duskpine.

Kobolds killing livestock
Kobolds have been spotted in the last few weeks and occasionally kill livestock, and wounded a man a few nights before.
- The man is called Yannick, a miner who can occasionally be found in the Wateringhole. He is a human in his early thirties and tells a tall tale of how he heroically fended off the Kobolds and sent them running.
- Can be intimidated, persuaded, or otherwise bought (with money, liquor, or anything else worth something) to tell the players he saw the Kobolds run off North into the Duskpine about 3 nights ago.
