Bronbog is a small village in the Dreamseep Marshlands. A dilapidated and remote place, it is primarily known as a source of queenscap, which is used to make healing potions.[2]
Description[]
Most of its buildings are made of wood rescued from the many nearby bogs, and only a circle of stone pillars remains of a long-ago destroyed temple to Pelor. But for the queenscap, a fungus that enables the brewing of potions of superior healing, the town would be unknown to anyone outside of southeastern Tal'Dorei.[2]
Points of interest[]
The Queen's Knight tavern is the biggest building in Bronbog, which has about six beds in drafty rooms to accommodate the few visitors to the village.[1]
Society[]
The population of this small marsh town are devoted to Pelor. They are also a surprisingly optimistic people; a common saying in the town is, "If you don't feel the storm, you can't know there ain't sun."[2]
Demographics[]
In 812 PD, Bronbog had a population of 740. 64% were humans, 18% half-elves, 9% halflings, and 9% were other races.[2] By 836 PD, the town's population fell to only 683. the majority remained human (53%), followed by half-elves (18%). Goblinkin then made up a significant portion of the population (11%), followed by halflings (9%) and others.[1]
History[]
During Vox Machina's six-month hiatus in 810 PD, Grog Strongjaw and Vex'ahlia were part of an adventuring party that lifted a curse from Bronbog by slaying a witch.[3]
At some point before 836 PD Eclipse, a deva of Pelor, arrived to the village, and under the guise of a humanoid priest, Father Larkylai, settled there, gaining a good reputation and conducting services from within the town's tavern.
In the adventure hook Morning Glory in the Tal'Dorei Campaign Setting Reborn, Eclipse summoned several glowing obelisks from the swamp that cause the most devout villagers to marvel, calling them "heralds of the Dawnfather, the rising sun", but all others are disturbed by their neighbors' feverish attitude.[1]
