Background
Berem is a small town that consists mostly of humans. Fishing and farming make up a major part of Berem's operations. The town also acts as a stopping point for fisherman and traders travelling along the coast of the great Tethys lake and has a population of 800.

Governance is enforced by a townsguard, consisting of 18 full-time guards and up to 80 conscripts. It is governed by Sherriff Kryten, who currently serves as the captain of the Town Guard.

In the Campaign
Berem was the birthplace of the Adventuring Party. In the forest outside the town, members of the party awoke to find themselves together. After defeating a demonic creature that was terrorizing the guard, Levarius, Langen Tisoff, Estinian, Sovelis and Sorella formed the Adventuring Party.

The Party took up residence in the Riverside Inn and befriended the innkeeper Bernholt, a well travelled and experienced barbarian who chose a quiet life in Berem after his husband fell ill. While there, they performed various quests such as ridding the town's Stirge and wolf infestations and caravan escorts to Mattegnome. A charity duel was also held between Levarius and Sovelis.

After their initial departure from Berem, the Party returned to rescue the town from the Rule of an Evil Wizard, during which the town was set ablaze under magical fire and buried by a magical fort.

They again returned during their voyage to Khazan, where they took a boat from Berem. After the siege, the town had used the looted castle gold to better the town as a whole.
