This town (pop: 1450), consists primarily of gnomes, stands within a recently claimed section of the River Kingdoms east of Mivon on a small tributary to the Little Sellen River. Jovvox was originally built around a remote monastery with a great open forge on the ground floor. After a turnover in local leadership, the monks rebelled and were killed. A flattering gnome merchant, Jov, persuaded the victor to cede her the territory in exchange for making weapons to fuel his rise to power. The bandit king was dead within nine months, but the gnome weaponsmith lived on. | This town (pop: 1450), consists primarily of gnomes, stands within a recently claimed section of the River Kingdoms east of Mivon on a small tributary to the Little Sellen River.

There is a small iron mine near the town, although, the halfling and humans of Jovvox also scour the battlefields of the River Kingdoms, scavenging leftovers of past battles to recycle into new weapons. The gnomes will melt down any weapons found and forge the metal into new weapons for the next client, and it’s not uncommon for a smith making a big sale to send a scout after the buyer to watch and potentially reclaim any unused or broken weapons after the client’s destruction. | There is a small iron mine near the town, although, the halfling and humans of Jovvox also scour the battlefields of the River Kingdoms, scavenging leftovers of past battles to recycle into new weapons.
