Reddansyr (pronounced: /rɛˈdɑːnsɪər/ reh-DAHN-seer[3]) was a small settlement found in the Dragon Coast region of central Faerûn.[1] It had a well-earned reputation as an adventurers' town because it was a good source of information for such people.[2]
Geography[]
The town was located at the junction between the Grand Ride and the Trader's Road, along the route that connected Westgate within the cities of Teziir and Starmantle.[4]
Trade[]
Reddansyr served as a launching point for caravans heading south from the region.[1]
History[]
In the early 14th century DR, hatchings of the black dragon Aglistralarraghautha destroyed much of the farmlands around Reddansyr.[5]
Notable Locations[]
- Giant's Folly, a successful and popular festhall that was built out of a boat that had been up-ended and repurposed as a tavern.[1]
- Temple of Oghma, a holy house run by Thyrius Jorman whose clergy resented the free flow of information available from the local festhall, as they preferred to gather and hoard useful information for themselves.[1]
Notable Inhabitants[]
- Ornlaugh Turghle, a doppelganger who posed as a merchant in the late 14th century DR.[6]
