The Homestead
The gathering of small farms where the campaign starts is known locally as 'Sixhomes', named for the six main farmstead on the land. These six homes are run by just a few families, who work together for their mutual protection, to garner better trading prices and to draw upon each other in times of need.
The family farms in the settlement are:
- The Connoughty Farm (the largest of the farms)
- The Tapley Farm
- The Hudder Farm (also known as the Blarman Farm due to the size of the Blarman family)
- The Wardle Family Farm
- The Hewer Family Farm
- The Langham farm
The Connoughty farm is also home to the Grayson and Wells families, who help run this farm. Assisting at the Tapley farm are the Shenner and Abentoft families - the eldest daughter of the Abentoft family recently married the heir to the Connoughty farm. The Hudder farm is also home to the Blarman family, who now outnumber their hosts.
