Phandalin

South of the Triboar Trail, nestled in the foothills of the Sword Mountains, Phandalin is a small frontier town that has a rather storied history. Established centuries ago by both Dwarves and Humans in the Phandelver Pact, Phandalin prospered initially due to the magic and wealth flowing from the nearby Wave Echo Cave.

Unfortunately for Phandalin, that wealth and magic attracted the attention of an orc invasion which swept through the region. In the devastation that followed Phandalin was ruined and the location of Wave Echo Cave was lost. Since then, Phandalin has been resettled at least twice; the first time failed due to another orc incursion, and the second group of settlers were driven out by Uthgardt barbarians (who also sacked nearby Conyberry).

These days Phandalin is slowly improving; the Miner's Exchange run by Halia Thornton has had some success in finding reliable wealth in the nearby Sword Mountains, and the Lord's Alliance is putting out feelers about placing Phandalin under official Neverwinter protection.
