Wilkesmont

The town of Wilkesmont is the former home of the bandit lord Miklos Jakab, self-proclaimed ruler of the Shroudwood and the last serious bandit threat to Daggermark. Though Jakab was killed in 4566, his followers swore fealty to Daggermark and now live on as a small protectorate of that city. Because of Wilkesmont’s past as a bandit fortress and because of its location inside the Shroudwood, relatively cut off from the rest of the Daggermark region, each time the Daggermark military falls apart, Wilkesmont suffers. The town has been burned to the ground three times, and each time rebuilt bigger than before. The town lacks any fortifications, instead relying on the heavy woods to keep most threats away. Recently, an uppity bandit lord from Sevenarches has been making noise about claiming the Shroudwood as his own. While this has the people of Wilkesmont on edge, they have several assassins from Daggermark on retainer for just such an occasion.
