Brief Description: The ruins of what was once a sprawling farmstead. Wild horses and boar roam all around the farmland, wandering around broken fences and through the fields. Trampled fields left to grow unchecked are filled with weeds and scattered broken stalks of corn. The vegetation has an almost sickly grey to it as you get closer to the farmhouse, which is run down and ramshackle. Doors have been wrenched off their hinges and large animal bones litter the area.

Detailed Description: This area was once home to a human family who had set up a farm here. Closer inspection reveals it belonged to the Steadman family, and there was easily a dozen or more people living here at one time. Ogres, presumably coming from the mountains, attacked the farm, overwhelming the family's meager defense, and took it for themselves.

Flora and Fauna: Wild horses and boar roam all around the farmland, wandering around broken fences and through the fields. Trampled fields left to grow unchecked are filled with weeds and scattered broken stalks of corn.

Misc Details: Contains a ruined farmstead which now houses a family of thuggish Ogres.

Fences: Wooden fences are generally used to contain livestock or impede oncoming soldiers. It costs an extra square of movement to cross a wooden fence. A stone fence provides a measure of cover as well, functioning as low walls. Mounted characters can cross a fence without slowing their movement if they succeed on a DC 15 Ride check. If the check fails, the steed crosses the fence, but the rider falls out of the saddle.
