Dangerford has grown to become far more than a convenient river crossing, between Alda-Chur and Jonstown. Dangerford Fort stands to the north of the Creek. A stone tower stands at the fort’s heart, surrounded by a palisade and guard towers. Smaller buildings run along the inside of the ramparts.
Dangerford Village lies on the opposite side of the river from the fort. The village is an important trade center on the road between Alda-Chur and Boldhome, with a thriving market. There is a sense of hustle and business here. Strangers regularly wander the streets, not just Dolutha clan-folk. The clan has benefited from all the trade.
The name Isle Dangerous comes of its role in Cinsina and Dinacoli histories where it is often the site of great duels of champions, battles, or raids.
The Lunar Empire has heavily occupied this strategic river crossing. It is a center of Lunar military activity and a focus for guerrilla action by the rebels.
Six hundred people live permanently in Dangerford. Only some fifty of these live in the Fort, the remainder lives in the village.
Isle Dangerous provides the key to crossing the Creek. Although the river is 500’ wide at this point, travelers only have to wade across two 100’ stretches of water. In Fire Season, the water can be knee deep but, in Storm Season, it may be waist deep.
Trade boats unload their cargo at Dangerford, and do not travel further upstream.
