Aurilssbarg

Aurilssbarg, was the largest settlement on Ice Peak island.

Description
Aurilssbarg was a small town of about 3,000 citizens. It acted as a general trading post for incoming traders (mainly from Luskan who had established a monopoly), as well as those of Bjorn's Hold and Icewolf. Wares such as scrimshaw, oils, animal skins, and other provisions were traded. The other settlements of the isle did not have a dock large enough to serve ships from the mainland, and thus did not have a say in which communities they sold to.

The ground and paths of Aurilssbarg were made up of felled tree trunks. The buildings were also made of wood, and their roofs were covered in turf. Green Hall, the local tavern, was known as the "heart" of the town, and several goats were cooked for its patrons.

Defenses
A standing army of 100 soldiers manned up to six longboats. The town also owned a striker, a powerful type of ship in the North that could hold up to 44 soldiers, four ballistae, and a ram.

Inhabitants
The residing Northmen were eager to hear any major news from the mainland.

History
In 1358 DR, the Heroes of Ascore arrived in Aurilssbarg. The leader of the small town, Tranjer Rolsk, told his guards to capture the heroes, so he could turn them over to Luskan for a reward.
