Revision as of 23:16, 19 February 2008
A town by the side of the road leading to the Northlands, Corna has had more than its fair share of sorrows as of late. Not only must they contend with frequent raids by the sleestak-like raptorak, they have also been beset by at least one murder, as well as rumours of strange and unholy forces at work inside their graveyard.
In the face of all this adversity, the local guard force, the Steel Serpents, keeps Corna fairly well-protected with the help of a number of local heroes who have been seasoned in the constant battles with the raptorak. Although his time seems spread a bit thin as of late, the captain of the Steel Serpents, one Osaka Jizo, is perfectly willing to provide training for those wishing to learn the martial disciplines. After all, the more people who know how to use a sword, the more likely Corna is to stand against the next raptorak attack.
Despite all this sorrow and contentiousness (or perhaps because of it), Corna does play host to a rather cheerful drinking establishment, where it is said that everyone knows your name (though they'll generally call you whatever they like). This charming place doesn't water their drinks, and plays host on most days to a small and motley set of regulars who seem quite knowledgeable in the goings-on around town. One may even be able to pick up some tips on the musical arts from the friendly bard who seems to spend most of her time in the bar. A friendlier lot of drunkards one is unlikely to find anywhere.
Corna -- all in all a nice place to visit. A town in dire need of a few good heroes.
