# Sandpoint

*The nearest human settlement. The goblins have been inside it exactly once.*

## Overview

A small coastal town on the Varisian shore, roughly three miles northwest of Brinestump Marsh as the crow flies. For the Licktoad tribe, Sandpoint was always the threat horizon — the place human adventurers come from, the place heroes disappear into, and the place goblins are expected never to reach.

The party reached it.

## Campaign Events

- **The Shalelu Deal:** Shalelu Andosana brokered entry for the party. Cooperate with her at Thistletop — get access to Sandpoint. The party agreed.
- **Ameiko's Imprisonment:** The party found Ameiko Kaijitsu in the Thistletop dungeon (D9), not in Sandpoint. She had been imprisoned approximately five days. The party freed her. She told them the backstory: her half-brother Tsuto had organized the raid with Nualia; Lyrie Akenja was involved. Tsuto had her transported to Thistletop during the raid and betrayed her.
- **Nualia's Objective:** Nualia's stated goal was to burn Sandpoint to the ground and transform herself into a half-fiend in Lamashtu's service. She did not accomplish this. She was stopped at Thistletop.
