Deadbridge is the capital of the Protectorate of the Black Marquis in the River Kingdoms.[1]
Description
At one time, this was an innocuous hamlet. Its increased status has not led to any kind of civic improvement; its buildings are mostly run down, and the streets between them are foul with refuse and worse. The best buildings are built upon a wharf upon the Sellen River. The current marquis, Urdul Bazzak, makes his residence in a rundown manor house, and his guards enjoy drowning trespassers in the river.[2]
It is here that river traffic (apart from those vessels belonging to the various River Kingdoms) must pay a toll in order to obtain safe passage to and from Numeria.[1] The wharf is defended by Wylia Greensword, a steadfast supporter of the Black Marquis and Captain of the Seabitch.[3]
