'''Cores''' The economy runs on cores. They can be found buried in the ground, in a twisted simulacrum of a desert plant, or in the hearts of magic-touched monsters. Present-day science uses them in various ways; they have been adapted to generate heat, light, and ground up to replicate gunpowder of days past, to name a few. They are both scarce and, due to the savage storms that pass through regularly, always being generated. Mercenaries, hunters, and the wildly desperate go out into the desert after a storm in search of them. Only those truly skilled, lucky, or both make it back.

'''Hillrend''' Some past event split a huge mineral-rich hill. The town of just over 4,000 souls is nestled primarily within the sundered earth. Using the cliffs as a guardian from the prevailing winds from the East and the relative cool of subterranean living, Hillrend is as thriving a community as can be expected in these trying times. Utilizing subterranean farms with core-powered grow lights and deep wells dug hundreds of feet into the earth, the town is largely self-sufficient. Hillrend is always in the market for cores, but the relative wealth of Hillrend makes them a juicy target for would-be usurpers. They welcome trade but are generally untrusting of outsiders. The population is disparate, with most races present to some degree. This is where your adventure begins.

Using the remaining cliffs as a guardian from the prevailing winds from the East and the relative cool of subterranean living, Hillrend is as thriving a community as can be expected in these trying times. Although still dependent on nearby villages and hardy caravans for food and news, the town is growing year after year. The population is disparate, with most races present to some degree.
