Hello all,
This is the first town journal I have done. I decided to use it as some shameless self promotion to showcase the Maritimes collection so far!
Introducing the township of Lonetoe (what a name from the random generator!).
Lonetoe is a small town of 40 something souls, carving out an forest based existence. The town, to date, has started to grow from the discovery of highly valued after furs and pelts. This lead to the construction of the first designated forestry outpost, hiring a forester to tend to the woods, and make sure plenty of animals are attracted in for trapping. Local critters include fox, beaver, and hare.

The abundance of wild animals lead to the establishment of a trade post, and the development of a small town around it.

Another resource is the dense pine and conifer forests on the north shore, home to more wild animals, and plenty of trees for tapping.

In fact, a new industrial area sprouted up on the forests edge, burning down boughs for charcoal, which are used to make turpentine from pine resin.

So far, things are looking up in Lonetoe.
