Niðaróss is one of the most important towns in the campaign world and the main settlement connected to the Fjordgate defense. It sits on the fjord and serves as the last major town before the sea for refugees and defenders fleeing the horde from inland settlements. In Fires at the Fjordgate, the town includes a central square with a speaking stone, longhouses, docks, a forgeyard, an eastern palisade, a northern wall, and newly built longhouses outside the wall for refugees. Those outer buildings were used as bait and traps during the battle.
