Long ago, in the deep trenches of time, there was a town called Tombs Blight. Though looking like a ghost town to the ignorant, there were individuals who knew better. The town was run by the blight folk: roguish people they were, full of non-natives that took refuge there; especially thieves and the poor. There weren't many laws, but the main one was watch your own back... it was a shady place indeed. The town folk favored the color black to shroud themselves as well as their personality, and they were bleak and silent. Isolated from the outside world and civilizations, they had become self-sufficient, so as to avoid relying on bartering with other civilizations. The town was located in the province of Polliton, was home to eight holds, and was surrounded by three provinces: Rogeti, Rostel, and Sure Foot.
