Ten Towns

The Ten Towns are a loose confederation of villages in Icewind Dale to the far North. Only one is really large enough to be called a town: Bryn Shander, the most central and largest town. It was because of this that the Ten Towns' council building was constructed there. The 9 other towns are built around the three lakes of Icewind Dale; Maer Dualdon, Lac Dinneshere and Redwaters (the smallest lake):
 * Bremen
 * Bryn Shander
 * Caer-Dineval
 * Caer-Konig
 * Dougan's Hole
 * Easthaven
 * Good Mead
 * Lonelywood
 * Targos
 * Termalaine

The area is out of the way enough that not many people even know it exists, thinking the world to end at the Spine of the World mountain range. Those that do know of the existence of Icewind Dale know it for knucklehead trout scrimshaw. The knucklehead trout is a fish unique to Icewind Dale's three lakes. Its ivory is the only real export of the region and is in great demand from the rich over the length and breadth of Faerûn. The ivory itself isn't what is most important because in skilled hands it can be carved into magnificent sculptures.
