Alamontyr is a large fishing and agricultural town in the far northeast of the Border Kingdoms. It is the easternmost notable settlement within the Border Kingdoms. Alamontyr lies on Zarcel's Run, a river that flows from the Duskwood in the south to the shores of the Lake of Steam in the north. Alamontan is the name given to an inhabitant of Alamontyr.^[1]

RulerEdit

Alamontyr is ruled by Shield Duke Bardran Thulmaer and his forty Griffon Knights who police the town and the surrounding areas fairly and with particular respect for local religious leaders. This makes him well-loved not only with the people of Alamontyr but also the people of the Realm of the Smoking Star to the west. The Shield Duke is quite old but has not yet named a successor, leading to much speculation and meddling.^[1]

TradeEdit

Because of the relative safety and security of life in Alamontyr, it has become home to many different craftspeople such as finesmiths, woodcarvers, potters, glaziers, jewellers and tailors who export their wares widely. Attempts to bring corruption to Alamontyr have been made by Chessenta, Westgate, the Red Wizards and Zhentil Keep.^[1]

Threats from the UnderdarkEdit

It is believed that disturbances made by the people of Alamontyr digging into the Shieldmaidens for copper have brought denizens of the Underdark such as ropers to Alamontyr. These creatures were found in cellars, crypts and sewers. A rumour exists that they are being aided by an inhabitant of the town.^[1]

BadgeEdit

The badge of Alamontyr is a full-face silver shield held up by two white wings on a dun background. The shield displays a rampant red griffon facing the dexter and its base (bottom tip) drips three large, crimson teardrops of blood. Apparently an image of this badge does not exist.^[1]
