Kaspar Kaspar was a city lying on the eastern side of Ulgarth in southeast Faerûn . Description . Kaspar was a thriving city of 10 , 000 people , called " Kasparians " . It was surrounded by fertile farmland growing the spice mingari , with many more farms lying to the west growing foodstuffs . These farms were called the breadbasket of Ulgarth , and Kaspar was thought to be one of the prettiest cities in the kingdom . Government . Around 1367 DR , Kaspar was led by one Baron Montar Kaspar , meaning " defender of Kaspar " , a name he chose for himself . Trade . Folk here actually preferred to trade with the barbarians of the eastern plains . Defenses . Despite this preference for trade , the city of Kaspar also had the responsibility of defending the realm against the barbarian Horde . It maintained an excellent army to guard against raids and be alert to threats . They also protected the vital western farmlands . Baron Kaspar commanded his own barony ' s army , the only baron to do so around 1367 DR . He led his forces into battle himself , which earned him the appreciation of his troops . In particular , Baron Kaspar led an elite cavalry company , mounted on the superb Dambraii horse s that he personally had imported from Dambrath . These made them the swiftest cavalry company in the kingdom , able to easily pursue or retreat from barbarian hordes . The city walls were defended by 500 soldiers , lightly armored as per local custom , but heavily armed . The majority were convicts who ' d chosen to serve their sentences out in the army . Baron Kaspar kept their morale high through a mix of trust , harsh discipline , and indulging their greed , sharing the loot of a battle and captured horses fairly among the troops . This kept the rate of desertion at less than 10 % . History . By 1367 DR , warnings circulated that the gray orc s of the Dustwall Mountains were gathering in preparation for a major assault or raids into Ulgarth . A horde of thousands of orcs was expected . The worried barons of Kaspar and Suormpar began recruiting solders to bolster their defenses . Appendix . Notes . At Candlekeep ' s unofficial errata , Simon Gibbs argues that Kaspar and Kellesar should be swapped on the maps , as the description of Kaspar better fits the southern location . That is , the apparent barbarian lands lie in the south , not the north , and the mingari farms around Kaspar could match the mingari farms east of the southern city of Kelazzan . However , information that Kaspar is preparing against raids from the Dustwall Mountains in the far north better suits its original northern location . In any case , this article remains with the canon version . On the poster map in " The Shining South " , Kaspar is spelled " Kasper " . This is presumed to be in error .
