The following is an entry in
my series on Ultimate Greyhawk. Much like how comics and movies will
reboot a franchise with a new take on an old concept, this is my
personal re-imagining of the Greyhawk Campaign Setting beginning with
the venerable town of Hommlet.
Key to the Village
The following locations are numbered based on how they appear on the map of the
village of Hommlet as found in the module T1-4 The Temple of Elemental Evil.
2. Hoonan Farmhouse
 |
| Elmo Hoonan |
This is the home of farmer
and Captain of the town's militia Bodasen Hoonan. He lives here with
his wife Ulmentha, two sons Elmo and Otis, and a servant named Pavek.
The couple are devout worshipers of Saint Cuthbert and thus are
pragmatic and hard workers. The same cannot be said of their tow
sons. Elmo is a slow witted drunk with aspirations to join an
adventuring party. This is not an act, he is actually as dumb as he
seems and if recruited by an adventuring party will pose a serious
liability. Otis on the other hand inherited the brains his brother
sorely lacks. He is a con artist and a rogue. He divides his time
between Hommlet and Nulb and frequently direct merchant caravans and
adventurers into well planned ambushes by bandits from Nulb. Bodasen
and his wife realize that both their sons are lost causes, yet
familial loves prevents them from acting against them. In fact
Bodasen will often use his clout as Captain of the militia to protect
his sons from any sort of accusations levelled at them and going as
far as hiding evidence of any wrong doings.
