Contract Details

Garsen's Tower is being sold by the original party members of the Garsen's Tower Adventure. The Barony of Newhaven has elected to Purchase the tower with a condition that the surrounding area and travelling routes be mapped and cleared of danger. Satisfactory results are a condition for the agreed price for the tower.

Adventure Overview

We explored the area, dispatched a cursed creature, and returned to sell the tower.

Geographical Information

Limestone Caves

Minor caves are found in the limestone cliffs scattered all over the general area of Chub's bay through to Landfall. Most are small and of no particular interest. A set of formerly inhabited were found on the west-most cliffs of Haven bay. They are of Dwarven origin, and have not been inhabited for at least 25 years. The caves are relatively small with a few rooms and some storage areas.

Haven Bay

Haven Bay can be reached by land from the south via the beach or through the bush area close to Landfall. It is possible to take horses up the banks at the southern edge of the beach, although it will be quite difficult. You can also enter by foot next to the waterfall at the north-eastern corner of Haven Bay.

Skoshi Hills Marker Stone

An unusual marker stone was discovered in The Hills of Skoshi on the top of the southerly most foot hill. The stone is round and flat, and does look quite old. We had no Aura detecting abilities and thus could not determine details of magical and other properties. Markings on the stone include a single triangle with a central spot. The apex of the triangle is points directly north. Underneath the base of the triangle (ie at the south) is the common rune 'R'.

People and Entities

Cursed Sasquach

A lone Sasquach-like creature was found in a cave on the northern cliffs of Landfall in April 1996. The creature had a curse-like disease which could be transmitted to those in contact with it. Prolonged exposure to the curse will begin to degenerate a person into a form similar to that of the creature. The water in the cave was infected with the curse at the time.

Local Fishermen

Fishermen stay temporarily on the Landfall Coast depending on the fishing seasons. A small number of run-down shacks have been erected along the coast for this purpose. Two dead fishermen were found recently killed by the creature described above.
