Visions

This list shows an example of what can be seen, past, present, or future.

[Bloodriven Village, Exterior]
A tall black iron gate stands as a lone entry beyond an uneven cobblestone wall that marks the border of the town, with a darkened bronze plaque set into the uneven mortar.  Sharpened tree trunks jut out of the top of the wall, providing some defense along an otherwise underwhelming line of protection.  Visible beyond the gate are rows of tall buildings with a mix of stone and metallic roofing while the road itself is made up of uneven cobblestones.


[Juggernaut, Grinning Goblin]
The honks, bleats and thumping of a dwarven brass quartet greet you as you enter the Grinning Goblin.  Crowds of dwarves and tourists alike crowd around little wooden tables, but on opposite sides of the room.  What may have been a potted plant wilts in the corner.  Behind the bar itself scowls the ugliest dwarf you've ever seen.  You realize he's the owner.  You also see a gem-studded black mithril hatch and a steel arch.
