Featherdale

Featherdale is a canonical Dale / Heartland Territory located in the Sembia & Dragon Reach, prominently surveyed on the regional map spanning From Sunset to Sembia.

Overview & Canon History

Featherdale encompasses the flat and fertile farmland on either side of the River Ashaba between Blackfeather Bridge and Feather Falls. The people of Featherdale don't believe in government or laws, doing as they please so long as they harm no one. As a result of this free-spirited outlook, Featherdale has no large settlements, no ruler, no standing army, and no capital. Crime is dealt with through vigilante justice, resulting in feuds between families that go back generations. The lack of military defenses throughout Featherdale makes the realm an easy target for invaders, but the people of Featherdale aren't rich, and they have little to arouse the envy of wealthy Sembian nobles. Featherdale is a good neighbor to the other dales.
