A town with a haunted memory

Fossbarrow takes its name from Fossian Crownguard. The official map also records that it was once haunted by a nightmarish demon. That short account makes the town a reminder that Demacia’s defences and hostility to magic do not remove supernatural danger from ordinary settlements.

Why this place matters

The available map entry does not provide a full civic history or a census. The dossier keeps that limit visible and links the town to Demacia’s wider story. Its illustration is regional context, not an authenticated depiction of Fossbarrow’s streets.
