@The Outskirts of Vizima is a place of many issues. First most obviously are the @Barghest and the @Beast of the Outskirts that prowl the night, attacking all.
Another issue is the presence of @Salamandra thugs. They usually also arrive at night, but tend to seek to buy or kidnap young children for some reason. Everyone are afraid when they come around in force.
lastly, there are multiple issues with Monsters around the area, from the Outskirts themselves, but also in @Vizima Southern Swamp and @Vizima Northern Marsh .
For not completely clear reasons, the gates of Vizima are closed to outsiders who do not have a special permit. @Odo , Ealdorman of @Broadway Village, is one of the few people who can give a permit, but won't unless you do something for him, or pay him a bribe. If unable to pay, he will ask whomever is interested in entering to complete some tasks on the Notice Board in @Miller's Square .
