Hasken's Manor (3.5e)
 |
Haskenport is a small town at the edge of a shallow sea. It was founded about thirty years ago¸ when Reynard Hasken¸ a paladin of St. Cuthbert¸ decided to retire to the area. He built a manor and a small private dock¸ and his followers created the community nearby.
"Some ten years ago¸ Reynard Hasken died of natural causes. He willed his manor house to the church of St. Cuthbert¸ but the priestess and her underlings cannot pay the high cost of its upkeep¸ and they have been unable to sell it thus far. Though they have removed some of the items of value from the house for safekeeping¸ they have made no attempt at the upkeep that the manor requires. Thus¸ it has slowly fallen into disrepair.
"A few weeks ago¸ a roving band of hobgoblins arrived at the manor house and took up residence there. Since then¸ they have been using it as a base of operations¸ though no one is quite sure what those operations are. Whatever their plans¸ however¸ their presence can't be a good thing. So the mayor of Haskenport and Ana¸ priestess of St. Cuthbert¸ have decided to seek help in ousting the evil humanoids.
