Another large addition to the population of Barnhaven, almost a 50% increase with 9 new members, taking the town from 23 to 32. This installment focuses on the fishermen who work the town’s lake at Felix’s Fish Camp, an establishment named after the restaurant on Mobile Bay.
This group triples the non-human population of the town, going from 1 to 3 with the addition of a half-orc couple. And with them, the first character who is not a fluent Common speaker.
The fish camp ended up taking up a lot more space than I had anticipated. The average fishers themselves don’t take up much space, getting the most meager accommodations in town, little more than a bedroll and footlocker. But, the camp needed a common workspace for cleaning and prepping fish as well as a couple market stalls.
In hindsight, the camp needs a couple clotheslines and a washbasin. Otherwise, working all day with fish and living in such close quarters would just get unbearable.
