Transk is a small farming village nestled in the hills near Kinsarmar. The small town was prosperous and peaceful until goblin raiders began appearing from the forests and running the villagers off their farms. The village is now under siege and constantly upgrading their defenses with the help of many prominent citizens, including a widely known blacksmith. Young heros might find this a wonderful place to begin making a name for themselves by helping the poor villagers regain their homes. Some might even find interesting word games with a few more light hearted villagers.
'''Transk''' is one of the nine [[newbie areas]] in Imperian. The war-torn farming village is, like most newbie areas, an area where [[newbies]] may get to know the world of Imperian in safety.
 
The village offers a number of activities for would-be adventurers such as questing, exploring and hunting. The villagers are always on the lookout for heroes willing to aid them in their struggle against the [[Goblin]] hordes.
 
__TOC__
 
== Geography ==
Nestled within the hills of the [[Vardarian Highlands]] near the city of [[Kinsarmar]], the village of Transk is a shadow of its former self. Wooden palisades surround the village, acting as the village's primary defense against raiders from [[Lorka'ig]]. Inside, the village is a cluttered collection of wooden houses and ramshackle huts erected by the recent refugees fleeing the [[Orc]] and [[Goblin]] raiders. There are few non-wooden structures in this village with the local church being the only building made from granite.
 
To the north of the village lies a small forest. The forest houses various plant and wildlife which the village makes use of as well as a destroyed farmstead in its northern corners. The farmstead acts as the base of operations for the local militia, led by Ruben and a [[Lorekeeper]] from Kinsarmar.
 
== Culture ==
The once-peaceful farming village has suffered greatly from the constant raids upon it. The villagers go about their daily activities with an air of melancholy and refugee farmers from the nearby farmlands crowd the streets of the small village. The village is lead by their Matron [[Sinikka]] who still holds hope that a hero will put an end to the raids. To this end, Sinikka is always looking for adventurers willing to help save the village.
 
A small number of the local farmers and villagers have created a local militia to help defend the village. The militia patrols the forests north of the village diligently and act as the village's sole defenders.
 
== Inhabitants ==
Transk is home to a large number of disheveled villagers who suffer due to the constant raids. Many irate farmers crowd the streets after being forced to come to the village as refugees, due to the destruction of the outlying farms by the Orcs and Goblins. On constant patrol north of the village are armoured myrmidons.
 
Notable members of the village include:
[[Lars]], the village idiot
[[Sanikka]], the village matron
[[Paavo]], the plowman
[[Asmo]], the blacksmith of Transk
[[Dagfinn]], the handyman
[[Tibean]], the Village Priest
[[Kerpal]], the Dung vendor
 
Residing in the forest north of the village in the destroyed farm are [[Ruben]] and an [[an enarmoured Lorekeeper]].
