Dragon Age - Thedas

Brandel's Reach is a rugged, lawless island northeast of Amaranthine, known as a haven for raiders and pirates. Its rocky terrain, steep cliffs, and dense forests make it ideal for hiding and defending against intruders. Instead of a traditional town, the island features hidden coves, fortified hideouts, and makeshift camps where raiders store their loot and plan attacks. The primary inhabitants are raiders, smugglers, and outcasts, living off plunder from nearby coastal areas and ships. With lookout points and rudimentary defenses, the island’s economy is based on stolen goods and occasional self-sufficiency through fishing and foraging. Brandel's Reach has a notorious reputation.
