Geography

The Actar Valley is located in the lower slopes of the Southern Vashnars. It can be reached from the small plateau along the road to Cyrene. It contains an area of rich grasslands, marked by a tall, crystalline tower, a small village inhabited by friendly halflings, and a river inhabited by Naiad the water nymph, which the halflings use for fishing. The western wall of the valley is a mountainous area with a cave where a Cyclops lives and guards his treasure.

Inhabitants

The halfling village is home to a variety of halflings who range in age from youthful children to wise elders. The more notable members of the village include:

Other inhabitants of the valley include Naiad the water nymph, Dymphne the forest nymph, and the Cyclops.

Culture

The Halfling villagers are kind and welcoming to outsiders. They live a relatively peaceful and simple life, with few dangers in their village. The only threat with which they must contend, aside from the occasional marauding adventurer, is the nearby Cyclops. They rely on the advice of the water nymph to help them in their struggle against this foe. The village is headed by a village elder, Merrygold, and the other halflings attend to the business of their daily lives.

Shops

There is only one store in the small village, and it sells a few products made by the halflings, including simple clothes, and some local cheese.

Notable Locations

Notable locations include:

  1. The Crystalline Tower within the grasslands
  2. The Cyclops' Cave
  3. The Halfling Store

Flora and Fauna

The Valley is inhabited by rabbits, owls, deer, goats and crows in addition to the halflings. Some of the goats have been trained by the Halflings to be used as war goats. One can also find beautiful rainbow fish in the nearby river. Vibrant wildflowers can be seen dotting the grasslands and a small glade of birch trees can be found near the river.
