Nestled just beyond the Basilisk Gate, Stonyeyes is a hard-bitten subdistrict of the Outer City where grit, labor, and quiet resilience define daily life. This neighborhood, home to a sizable population of half-orcs, serves as a vital artery for commerce flowing in and out of Baldur’s Gate. Many residents work as porters or stablehands, hauling wares from caravans denied entry to the Lower City. The clang of hooves and the creak of overburdened wagons are constant companions here, as are the pungent smells of livestock and manure from the area's sprawling stockyards and stables. Though lawless by inner-city standards, Stonyeyes operates on its own rugged code—one enforced, for better or worse, by the Bloody Hands, a brutal gang whose red palm insignias are feared and respected in equal measure. Despite the gang’s grip, the locals endure, forging tight bonds in the face of prejudice, poverty, and danger.

Stone and packed mud form the patchwork streets of Stonyeyes, flanked by timber stables and iron-fenced stock pens. The air is thick with the scent of sweat, hay, and wet earth. Burly half-orcs unload wagons beneath creaking cranes, while wary eyes peer from behind soot-smudged curtains. Dust rises underfoot, mingling with the distant shouts of traders and the sharper tones of gang whistles in the alleys.
