my story takes place in a cliffside town, at the junction of two rivers (like Pittsburg, only smaller), with a major port city much further downriver and dwarven mountains upriver. Is there a actual place in the Pathfinder Campaign Setting like this, or should i just make it up? I'm not using any campaign setting source material. Any help would be hot.
I would say just look at a map of Golarian, look for the features you want, and go from there. Just north of Riddleport in Verisia is a junction of two rivers with one of the rivers flowing from a mountain range north of it.
If you can tweak your rivers a little bit, then why not Korvosa? Plenty of mountains, sea and dwarves at hand.
There is a link to a Map of Golarion that is part of the community package which I believe you can download for free.
Map download page bottom of page.
There are several places where this would work. I would suggest taking a look at the map and see if there are any locations that may work for you.
Hope this helps good luck.
thank you, it did help.
