Far Brohn

Far Brohn is a mercantile settlement in the Pytharon Empire.

Background
The trading city of Far Brohn lies near the northern edge of the cold desert of Matheunis. Tall stone walls help to protect it from the frigid winds of the south, but their real purpose is to keep out the bandits, abhuman raiders, other terrible threats that emerge from the desert. Chief among these dangers are the mind-screaming hordes of sathosh, which frequently attack trading caravans on the way to and from Nihliesh. The merchant lords of Far Brohn are always looking for help against these raids.

The city itself is secure. Its walls are laced with numenera devices (level 6) that affect the minds of those that assault them, using sonic vibrations to cause panic and confusion.
