Morlin Castle

Castle Morlin was the seat of power for the Barony of Steeping Falls until its collapse in the early 5 century DR. It was named after the vampire known as the Baron of Blood, Artor Morlin.

Location
The castle was located on the side of a hill overlooking the Delimbiyr River.

Beneath the castle was a winding network of dungeons. These remained for over a thousand years after the castle's destruction.

History
After the collapse of the barony, in the the castle became the lair of horrifying beasts and malevolent undead. Folks from the surrounding areas avoided the ruins of the fallen castle.

In the, the young merchant's son Tyndal famously defended his family from a band of lizardfolk armed with only a dagger, very near the castle's former location. Some 16 years later he founded his own duchy, and began construction of Castle Daggerford directly over its ruins.
