Peldan's Helm

Peldan's Helm is a canonical Settlement / Crossroads Town located in the The Dalelands, prominently surveyed on the regional map spanning From Sunset to Sembia.

Overview & Canon History

Mistledale, Dalelands. The small village of Peldan's Helm lies along the dangerous western edge of Mistledale. A stout stone wall protects the village, and the gate is never opened between sunset and sunrise, even for known travelers, as Ghosts from the Barrowfield have been known to possess folk and use them to gain entrance. Recently, goblins have laid siege to Peldan's Hold twice, so bell ringers now stand ready at all times to send a call for help to Ashabenford—whose militia is a day's ride away.
