Impresk

Impresk was a barony of the monarchy of Erlkazar, which encompassed the territory of the Snowflake Mountains.

Description
Impresk was the barony responsible for ensuring that the monster population of the Snowflake Mountains remained low and defending the trade road to Riatavin.

The barony was inhabited by many "hill clans" and contained several farming villages, a few logging and shepherding towns in the foothills, and a single mining town.

Geography
Impresk Barony was the northernmost of Erlkazar's five baronies. It bordered Carrelath and Shalanar to the south. Shilmista, the Forest of Shadows, was its western border, and Impresk Lake was located at the southeast edge.

Government
The leader of Impresk was Baron Jivam Tammsel, who, oddly enough, was a half-steel dragon ranger. He was selected by the hill clans to lead despite his draconic heritage.
