Glimmerbrook is a small but remarkably prosperous farming village nestled beside a gently flowing river that winds through Velarion’s southern countryside. Its seemingly endless abundance is a direct result of residual arcane energy left behind by a long-forgotten sorcerer. Though the nature of their experiments is unknown, their lingering influence has permanently altered the land, causing crops to flourish at unnatural rates and enhancing the vitality of the soil. However, the magic has also left its mark on the villagers—every person born in Glimmerbrook displays strikingly unnatural hues in their hair, eyes, or even skin, with colors spanning the full spectrum of the rainbow. The village thrives on community and cooperation, its people known for their hospitality and joyful spirit. Most residents are halflings, though a mix of elves, gnomes, humans, and others have come to call Glimmerbrook home, drawn by its enchantment and promise of fruitful life.

Glimmerbrook’s vibrant beauty is unmistakable. The village sprawls along both sides of the river, connected by a curved stone bridge adorned with flower boxes that bloom in hues never found in nature. Lanterns powered by soft enchantments line the cobbled streets, casting a warm pastel glow during the evening hours. The surrounding fields are a painter’s dream—rows of crops in brilliant greens, golds, and purples sway under the breeze, nourished by unseen magical forces.
