Nan

Nan

Country: Liyish

Population: 3,500

Primary Races: Some of the more nomadic races such as halflings, goblins, and malkari have found their homes here. Most likely due to the constant changing of the people in town, they have found comfort in always seeing new faces.

Ruling Body: Nan is technically run by a mayor, but is truly run by the headmaster of the school, a halfling by the name of Gunther Nilesly.

Description: Nan is a fairly small town with a tendency toward the theatric. A day without street performers or traveling troupes is quite rare. Thanks to The Stage there is always someone trying to make a name for themselves or find a worthy patron to sponsor their schooling. Some of the townsfolk believe there are more travelers than people who actually live in town, and it is possible they are right.

Notable Inns:

The Bugbear's Den - The sign out front depicts a bear sleeping in a cave. This large three story inn is a haven for the locals. Gossip and drinks are always present. Travelers are tolerated but never feel welcome, even though this is the largest inn in town. It is run by a human female name Priscilla Ren, and her familiar, the dog, Killboy.

Book Row - Book Row is a series of small inns providing room and board to students for a reasonable rate. Very few, if any, outsiders rent here, but if they wanted to rooms could be arranged. The proprietor of these inns varies, and investors are always buying and selling. Anyone looking to make some quick money can always find games of chance in the streets here, usually with students trying to make tuition.

The Bar - There is no sign above the door and if you aren't from town you probably wouldn't even know it was there. The building is made from a dark wood and looks more like a house than an inn. It has no formal name and the locals just call it "The Bar." It is the place in town to get a good meal and a fantastic drink. It is currently run by a malkari by the name of Sal. It is a well-known secret among the bard community that winning over the patrons here is a worthy feat.

Notable Locations:

The Stage - Revered as one of the great schools, The Stage, prides itself on training some of the world’s greatest performers. It is a fairly small group of buildings and doesn't provide housing but students can always be found on the grounds. Music is always present when passing nearby.

The Statues of the Old Samurai - Ages ago a band of samurai saved the town of Nan. Most of the story is lost, including the heroes’ names, but the statues are revered as the most important part of the town's history.
