History
The White Rose HQ was once a roadside inn and taproom; abandoned and left unused for years before being purchased for use by the Guardians of the White Rose. Still under renovations, the old building sports a main common room with a kitchen, a small cellar, and a second floor with 10 rooms.

Outside, an old well serves up fresh water, and a circle of trees has been turned into a makeshift horse pen. A copse of trees to the northwest serves as a camp spot for those who prefer to rough it rather than enjoy one of the simple beds (such as the Quartermaster Direthel).

Local Lore and Culture
Under the jurisdiction of the City of Daran, the wilderness around the Hall is mostly undeveloped, with the exception of farms a short distance away. The southern farms support four families, growing barley, wheat, various vegetables, and some live stock such as cows, chickens, and sheep.

The northern farm is a very large apple orchard and horse ranch.

Black Rose Cavern
This large cavern in the southwest area of the region contains beautiful black roses. These rare blooms are said to be symbols of undying love, and grow next to bio-luminescent mushrooms.

The Song of the Guardians of the White Rose
This song was created to be sung by bards far and wide to help recruit others to the cause. From within the jungles dark and grim With many an outlook rather dim There came two that chose To bring with them the light of the White Rose. From afar of the island of the Great Tree, Having travelled across the Suncrest Sea, Two more did come, striking quite the pose, As they too held the light of the White Rose. The fifth hails from the great city of Daran He grew up in opulence that might befit a baron, But chose to use his talents to save others from horrible throes, And his heart too shone with the light of the White Rose. A sixth hero reformed from Vanigar he did stalk, to redeem his history, among the roses he did flock. And from this past, this new hero like a phoenix arose, his soul too was purified by the light of the White Rose. Now the final petal to complete the White Rose's head, Made from so many stories, to here many paths have led. To you who's heart feels the light to our message heed, we entreat you 'join the White Rose' to aid those in need.

Biome
The area around the White Rose HQ is a temperate broadleaf forest biome, with many of the flora and fauna that can be expected there. The river sports a variety of fish, including salmon and bass, there are multiple types of berry bushes around including blueberries, black berries, and red gooseberries (mildly poisnous). The wildlife is also varied, with the forests and lowlands having white-tailed deer, small boar, badgers, foxes, and hares. Closer to the mountains are elk, brown bears, and red deer.
