Rainoga

Manorborn stands as the ancestral heart of Baldur’s Gate’s elite—where the city’s oldest and wealthiest patriarch families reside in stately grandeur. Nestled in the western quarter of the Upper City, it serves as a symbol of Balduran’s legacy, with its residents claiming descent from those who first settled the city’s heights. The district's cobbled lanes wind between towering, opulent manors—each adorned with carved gargoyles, imported marble fountains, and hedge-lined courtyards shielded by wrought-iron gates. Many of the nobles here serve in the Parliament of Peers, shaping the city's laws while quietly maneuvering for greater influence. Manorborn also boasts a small enclave of eccentric mages and venerable sages, among them Ragefast and Krammoch Arkhstaff, who find solace and patronage amid the opulence. The storied Manor Gate, an ancient stone arch, separates this district from the more chaotic Bloomridge below, marking a firm boundary between privilege and populism.

Manorborn is serene and stately, with pale stone villas rising behind manicured walls. Ivy climbs colonnaded facades, and copper-roofed towers catch the sun. The streets are quiet, patrolled by watchful guards in polished mail. The scent of lavender gardens and old parchment lingers in the air, beneath the toll of distant bells and murmured conversation behind silk-draped windows.
