Hammer Hold

Map of region

Location

The Dwarven run "free town" of Hammer Hold is located at the borders of the Welcome Hills and the southernmost edge of the Hammer Peaks (the mountain range which runs down the centre of Thorast).

Inns and Taverns

For a town of its size, Hammer Hold has surprisingly few inns or taverns. This is because the town is not somewhere that travellers randomly come to, for obvious reasons. In total the town has just 2 inns (although both are of a fair size) and 5 taverns.

Inns:

• The Coach and Pony
• Rhodal's Inn

Taverns:

• The Foundation Stone - although typically thought of as an "adventurer's bar" there is also regular entertainment here.
• The Black Cat - this is where non-Dwarves and non-Humans tend to congregate. As such it is usually thought of as an "Orc bar".

Notable People

• Norrick Steelmantle

Acknowledgements

The town of "Hammer Hold" is based on the "Hammerfast" D&D supplement by Mike Mearls and hence the maps of the town are (c) WotC 2010. Hammer Hold's history, buildings, guilds and NPCs do deviate significantly from that "Adventure Site" (as it is called). Knowing the contents of the "Hammerfast" supplement will give players no readily usable information about "Hammer Hold".
