As an Arkansan, I had to do this.
Overview
Possumpatty, Arkansas is a town hidden deep in the Ozark mountains. The high concentration of supernatural energy there causes reality to warp around it, making it inaccessible by normal means. The land itself is actually the size of a large county, but does not take up space on a map. There are many portals scattered around the Ozarks that lead to Possumpatty as well as secret paths known only to the Possumpattonians. Most outsiders are either very, very lost or have been there before.
Life in Possumpatty
Possumpatty is a small town of only about three thousand. The people there are a simple and social lot, but everyone owns at least one firearm and no one tolerates trouble makers. The primary languages spoken there are Hickanese and poor English.
Though it is a human settlement, non-humans are a common sight in Possumpatty. The neighboring Sasquatch tribes often trade with the people of Possumpatty, the Kwandee Indians who live in the surrounding area are quite friendly with locals, and even aliens occasionally drop by. All this is completely normal there, by the way.
Rules and stuff
If you find yourself in Possumpatty, following the laws is easy. Don't steal, destroy, or mess with anything that isn't yours unless you're willing and able to pay for it, don't kill anything that is sentient or someone's pet, and don't harass the locals. Feel free to wander around town and explore the surrounding forest. Careful, though, the Sasquatches are very territorial and there are all sorts of sacred Kwandee rules that are easy to break. There are also some freaky supernatural things that happen off the beaten path, so try to avoid getting lost. It's recommended you find a guide before wandering too far from the town.
