Brinehold

Brinehold is a fictional settlement that appears in the tabletop role-playing game Pathfinder. It is located in the country of Avistan, specifically in the frigid northern region known as the Crown of the World. Brinehold is a coastal town known for its harsh climate and the hardy, resilient people who live there.

The settlement's primary industry revolves around fishing and whaling, as the surrounding icy waters are rich with marine life. The inhabitants of Brinehold are skilled sailors and hunters, accustomed to surviving in an environment that is both unforgiving and beautiful. The town's architecture is typically robust, built to withstand the constant winds and snow. Structures are often made of wood and stone, with small, fortified windows to keep out the cold.

Brinehold is often depicted as a place where outsiders might find a rough welcome, but also where honest work can be found. It serves as a frontier outpost, a place where the civilized world gives way to the wild, untamed north. The proximity to the dangerous wilds of the Crown of the World means that threats from monstrous creatures and the elements are a constant concern for the residents. Despite the hardships, Brinehold maintains a strong sense of community, bound together by shared struggles and the necessity of mutual reliance for survival.
