Bledansuch

Bledansuch is a fictional town in the northern highlands of the realm of Veloria, created for fantasy fiction and role-playing. It lies along the Lir River at the edge of the Brackwood Hills and has a temperate climate with cool winters and mild summers. The town is described as a small, self-sufficient community focused on crafts, agriculture, and trade.

Etymology: The name is thought to derive from Old Velorian elements meaning "white spring," in reference to a local spring that feeds the river.

History: In its internal chronology, Bledansuch emerged as a market settlement in the 12th century, growing around the river ford and a timber trade route. It shifted between local lordships during the medieval era and later rebuilt under guilds. In modern depictions, it is portrayed as a tight-knit town with masonry and carpentry traditions.

Geography: The town sits in a narrow valley with beech forests to the west and granite outcrops to the east. The Lir River provides irrigation and a focal point for trade. Elevation runs from 120 to 180 meters.

Economy and culture: The economy centers on timber, stonework, and farming. Its annual harvest festival includes rustic music, crafts, and a river procession. Architecture favors timber-framed houses on stone foundations.

Notable features: The Silver Span, a centuries-old stone bridge over the Lir, is the town's landmark. Nearby Brackwood Glassworks is noted for colored glass and artisanal wares.
