North Seleth

North Seleth is a neighborhood in South Maradaine. It is bounded by the Maradaine River, the creek boundary with Keller Cove, Seleth, and by Benson Court near Junk Avenue.

North Seleth is a relatively impoverished area, but one with a fairly strong sense of identity and neighborliness. To ”east” is to move to a neighborhood to the east like Keller Cove because one has earned enough to leave. There are negative connotations to “easting.” North Seleth was "founded for those too Druth for the Little East, but not Druth enough for the rest of Maradaine."

The area experiences endemic crime, though in a rather organized fashion, as the Old Lady has her hands in virtually all of the action in the area. Other gangs and organized crime syndicates have their eyes on the area, particularly after the Holver Alley fire. Compared to Aventil, with its pervasive street gangs, North Seleth should probably be considered low-crime. Lieutenant Covrane discovered that the area fell into a gap on  Constabulary maps - each neighboring stationhouse marking it as another's responsibility. As a result, the few sticks who actually do appear in the area are residents themselves.

North Seleth is a major location for the events of The Holver Alley Crew. Most of the members of the team are from there, and it is where Holver Alley is located.
