The village of [[Brookside]] is nestled among the branches of the [[Brookwasch River|River Brookwasch]] on the western edge of [[Drachvald]].

==Lore==
Brookside is located in the Drachvald region in the northwest of Novia directly south of [[Spite]]. It is the hometown of [[Samael]] and was overrun by the Undead armies of [[Anapa]] not long ago. Players will encounter this town when following their quests along the Path of Love.

The town of Brookside is a village located in Drachvald between Spite and Rhun. It is the site where Samael lost his family. The village has a history of being overrun by the undead, it is a dark foggy town nestled in pine forest filled with wary town folks and decrepit buildings.<ref>[[Update of the Avatar]] [https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/?p=66943 #208 - 2016.12.23: The Making of Brookside]</ref><ref>[[Update of the Avatar]] [https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/?p=67258 #209 - 2017.01.06: The Making of Brookside] (cont)</ref>

The abandoned manor, once a luxurious estate, now lies in ruins just north of Brookside, a remnant of the undead overrun. The locals are careful not to get too close…<ref>[[Update of the Avatar]] [https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/?p=67524 #210 - 2017.01.13: The Making of Brookside] (cont)</ref>

==Trivia==
*Brookside started as a cloned scene using one of our PRT / POT templates based off of the Forest 02 POT template (a forested variation of the Grasslands POT template). It first appeared in [[Release 27]]. For [[Release 38]] it was rebuilt with new flora, new atmospheric settings like permanent fog, a graveyard, and other unique features.
*Inspiration for this scene came from New England towns, and “Sleepy Hollow”.
