Grey Kingdom: The Game
Xadian: You've been spending time in a medium sized river town named Riventon. It does pretty good trade along the river, and has a fairly sizeable temple to St. Misipi, patron of rivers and commerce, whom most of the humans revere and the other races respect. Its a fairly nice town, though a bit muddy, even when there hasn't been rain in a while. Population is mostly human with dwarves making the next most common sight. You can sense a fairy vale nearby, probably in the marsh to the west, and you know that they visit the town often (streetwise+pact check) spreading mischief and making shoes. The town was more or less just on your way and had a nice inn for the night. (OOC: just out of curiosity, what would you like your tiefling appearance/back story to be...are you going with the 4e base, or something else (either way is fine, as is however human/tieflingy you want to loook)
The big news of course is the fact the four cows were butchered and burned in the town square last night in what it pretty much certainly a ritual of some kind. The people-folk are pretty edgy about it today, so you think its either not that common or not that acceptable. There have been priest performing their own ritual in the spot, possible a counter ritual, but you really couldn't say. Your passive insight says that they're not too positive what they're doing will make a difference.
Other than that its your basic merchant town, with its basic history and basic stories of nearby caves or battlefields that no one ever goes to or comes back from or some such.
