Brynmoor is a Dragonwilds:power level 1 to 2 region in Dragonwilds:Ashenfall, ruled over by General Dragonwilds:Velgar, a green dragon. It is the first area in the game that players interact with. Brynmoor is located south of Dragonwilds:Ghornfell.
History
Template:Main Brynmoor served as a sanctuary for the first settlers when they were brought to the continent by the god of balance, Dragonwilds:Guthix. The first settlers he brought with him were his followers, who were mostly human. This region had housed the Dragonwilds:Runecrafting Guild, the Dragonwilds:Adventurer's Guild, the village of Bramblemead, and the Dragonwilds:Keep of Blue Flames. It originally had iron deposits, but these were completely depleted due to the high demand for iron.
Guthixian settlement and the Schism
Guthix and his followers founded Bramblemead in the Dragonwilds:First Age.Template:CiteJournal As the continent's anima worked on the settlers, some became Dragonwilds:Amalgamated, and the village began killing them, justifying it by denying that the afflicted were still human.Template:CiteJournal The killing of the first of them, Dragonwilds:Mia Larsdottir, went unpunished, and vigilante mobs made the Amalgamated a routine target thereafter.Template:CiteJournalTemplate:CiteJournal The town blacksmith Dragonwilds:Glass Knife murdered more than a dozen of them with the agreement of many villagers, and her marriage to one of the village elders reduced her sentence to community service, setting a precedent for how crimes against the Amalgamated were treated.Template:CiteJournalTemplate:CiteJournal
The Dragonwilds:Wild Knights responded by entering the village after dark to rescue the persecuted.Template:CiteJournal During these rescues they summoned crow, raven, and magpie spirits to distract the villagers, and their presence near the village became known as "dark tidings".Template:CiteJournal Guthix left the continent in response to the killings, taking with him those followers untouched by the prejudice and charging the Wild Knights to protect the settlers and the wilderness from one another.Template:CiteJournal Their captain took in the children the killings had orphaned.Template:CiteJournal
The prejudice outlasted his departure. Amalgamated who joined the town guard continued to face it there, with villagers turning away rather than report crimes to them, and few remained in the service for long.Template:CiteJournal
Saradominist rule
During the Dragonwilds:Third Age, while the God Wars consumed the wider world, Saradominist settlers reached the continent and established a camp on the clifftop above the valley. As the camp merged with the village below, the villagers, who considered themselves abandoned by their own god, proved receptive to its missionaries, and Bramblemead adopted Saradominist worship.Template:CiteJournalTemplate:CiteJournal The two faiths initially held equal standing on the village council, marked by copper pins for the druids and tin pins for the priests.Template:CiteJournal Counsel was given by the Bronze Advisors who were meant to speak for order and balance in equal measure, but the Saradominist faction held the greater influence, and council policy increasingly favoured it until the Guthixian faith dwindled and the church stood alone.Template:CiteJournal

The Dragonwilds:Zamorakian cult known as the Dragonwilds:Children of Shadows originated in the region under this regime and drew in three apprentices from the Dragonwilds:Runecrafting Guild who had been passed over for promotion.Template:CiteJournal The cult also placed an agent in the Duke's court as a household servant, tasked with engineering the establishment's downfall from within.Template:CiteJournal In pursuit of power the three apprentices entered ancient dragonkin vaults, where they recovered a fragmentary forbidden text and followed its instructions.Template:CiteJournal The text transformed them into creatures that drained the lives of those they encountered on returning to the village.Template:CiteJournal The assembled Wild Knights were able to kill them only once sunlight rendered the creatures vulnerable.Template:CiteJournal

Geography
Brynmoor is comprised of three subregions: Temple Woods, Bramblemead Valley, and the Whispering Swamp.
Dragonwilds:Temple Woods
The Temple Woods is located on the cliffs overlooking the rest of Brynmoor, dominated by the Temple of Saradomin. The temple itself remains preserved due to a faint aura of priestly magic that repels the more monstrous creatures of the wilds. It serves as a sanctuary in the region. To the north-west of the temple stands an old, haunted windmill.Template:CiteJournal
Dragonwilds:Bramblemead Valley
Bramblemead Valley was once the heart of human activity in the region. It contains the ruins of Bramblemead. Several key structures still stand, including the Dragonwilds:Keep of Blue Flames. The valley was also home to a great Dragonwilds:Runecrafting Guild, and an Dragonwilds:Adventurer's Guild, located to the east.Template:CiteJournal
Dragonwilds:Whispering Swamp
The Whispering Swamp forms the northern border of Brynmoor and separates it from Ghornfell. The swamp is littered with the sunken remnants of the Dragonwilds:Human-Garou War, which neither side could fight effectively in the muddy water. The swamp is rich with resources for crafting, including rare herbs and ore deposits found within its caves. The area is patrolled by goblins and watched closely by the garou from the north. An ancient horror roams the swamp at night.Template:CiteJournal

Trivia
- During the First Age, time in the valley was measured in units called krill hours, defined as the interval taken by the dominant krill shoal to travel from one end of Bramblemead Valley, around Temple Woods, and back to the other end.Template:CiteJournal
- All record of an incident known as the Day of Purple Feathers was expunged from the Runecrafting Guild archives, after which imitating a chicken was enough to alarm wizards and knights alike.Template:CiteJournal
- Domestic cats became a rare sight in Bramblemead as crossbow production grew, owing to a local superstition that it was unlucky to keep a cat and a crossbow under the same roof.Template:CiteJournal
- An embroiderer named Suizzy produced a tapestry in the region's early years depicting a dragon emerging from the underworld with a withering curse, predating both the Dragonwilds:Withering and Dragonwilds:Imaru's return.Template:CiteJournal
