The Adder Swamp is a dangerous expanse of lycanthrope-infested marshland that surrounds the Adder River delta in Chessenta.
History
The native werecrocodiles had a half-sunken settlement somewhere on the seaward edge of the swamp[1] but when a community of wererats migrated to the area, the werecrocodiles territorial nature caused the two races to immediately come to blows.
The chaotic halfling barony of Ursuma managed to stay out of the lycanthrope war when it was founded within the swamp sometime during the Era of Upheaval.[2]
Environment
Like the Adder River, the Adder Swamp was also known for its large snake population. It was also one of the rare few places along the entire coast of Chessenta where sailors would not moor their boats.[3]
