White Maw

White Maw is a small, partially ruined town built around the skull of a truly massive dragon. The skull is large enough to drive two full loaded wagons in, side by side, with their animals, and still have room. The town itself is hundreds of years old and is actually the remains of several ruined towns built on top of each other. Up until a hundred years, or so ago a nearby oasis would have kept the town alive and viable, but that oasis has sense dried up, leaving only dead trees and bones to mark its passing.   No Traians have lived in the area since the oasis dried up but even before that the region was plagued by raids from Unbowed Nomads and bother bandits. The little cultural remains of the people that live here reveal that they were almost all of a religious bent and worshiped the skull of the dragon and used it for important rituals.   Over the years the Unbowed have taken to the area, using it as a temporary shelter, and several tribes have attached religious significance to the skull as well.
