Loggers camp Board
Based on dragon of Icespire. This board contains a loggers camp, work hut and encounters with ankhegs.
Years after the eruption of Mount Hotenow, the city of Neverwinter continues to rebuild itself after the destruction wrought by that event. Loggers have set up camps along the river that flows out of Neverwinter Wood, using the river to transport logs to the city.
One particular camp, located on the south side of the river, is run by a craven opportunist named Tibor Wester, the half-brother of Phandalin’s townmaster, Harbin Wester. Tibor employs skilled loggers to find the best trees, chop them down, and haul them back to the camp to be sent downriver. He gets his supplies from Phandalin so that he doesn’t have to pay the outlandish “devastation tax” that Neverwinter applies on essential goods. The challenge lies in getting the supplies safely through Neverwinter Wood, which is why Harbin uses adventurers to make deliveries.
Tibor has a bigger problem than supply lines, however. His loggers have drawn the ire of anchorites of Talos, who resent intrusions into their territory in Neverwinter Wood. The anchorites have hidden a totem in his camp that has attracted ankhegs. The burrowing monsters caught the loggers by surprise, killing all twelve of them. Tibor survived by locking himself in his office, where he intends to remain until someone rescues him.
