Fangoth was originally named Faermish, but after the hobgoblins assisted the Lemish against the Solamnics they were given the budding town of Faermish as payment. The hobgoblins renamed the town to Fangoth, and allowed for humans to live in the city. Elves were arrested on sight, but the city doesn't enjoy the same wealth as the other villages. The streets are dirty, and the rulers are poorer. Sometime after the War of the Lance, the hobgoblins were overthrown from power.

The Knights of Takhisis attacked the city, coming from the east across the Fangoth Field to attacking the waiting force of Solamnics. The Solamnics lost and the city fell after a six day siege to the Dark Knights. It is unknown when or if the city was liberated from their control.
