Kendall Keep
Kendall Keep is a frontier fortress in the Borderlands, serving as the party's base of operations in the Return to the Keep on the Borderlands adventure.
History
The Keep was founded some thirty years ago by Macsen Wledig, an ambitious warrior who carved out his own fief in the wild Borderlands. He led expeditions against the creatures of the Caves of Chaos until he believed them wiped out.
Macsen died fighting a raiding party from the Horned Society. His son, Macsen the Younger, now rules the Keep.
Current Situation
The Keep has slowly rebuilt its strength after years of turmoil. However, evil stirs again in the hills—caravans are being attacked, travellers are vanishing, and rumours speak of a Hidden Temple dedicated to dark gods.
