Nashkel

Nashkel is a small town on the northern slopes of the Cloud Peaks. Although formally a part of Amn, Nashkel is separated from the rest of the kingdom by the mountain passes and is relatively autonomous.

Places of Note

 * Cloud Peak Outfitters Equipment shop for mountain travelers run by Salla Pitontoes, a halfling cleric of Tymora.
 * Icedawn’s House Shrine to Auril.
 * The Northern Light Inn and Tavern constantly lit by magical light since the owner, Reis Kensiddar, fears darkness after an encounter with both the drow and the Nightbringers of Shar.

Nashkel in Baldur's Gate
Nashkel appears as a small village with a temple to Helm, an inn, two stores and a tavern. The village has become interesting to the whole region because of its proximity to the Nashkel mines where miners are disappearing, adding to the Iron Crisis. Here the player can team up with Minsc and Edwin. Berrun Ghastkill has a few quests for the player and Volo makes an appearance in the Belching Dragon Tavern. This is also where the infamous Noober is encountered.
