Please consider using Template:Infobox RegionData instead, which automatically fetches the relevant and always-correct data from the game engine itself. Use this template for historical pages where the region data is no longer available (e.g. the sunk south islands).

To convert, use the "image" property - the first number is the world-id, the second the region-id.

Enlod is the Capital of Arcachon and the spiritual home of the Adgharhin Way.

Demographics

Most of Enlod's population are farmers in the outlaying countryside or unskilled laborers. About 170 noblemen and their families reside in estates within the city. Several hundred are employed as clergy or various assistants by the Adgharhinist church, and several hundred more in military roles.

Economy

One census master remarked of the city,

"There are 7 blacksmiths, 8 taverns, 5 inns, 8 butchers, 29 barbers and 40 tailors. There are 18 wine and ale sellers, 7 spice merchants, 17 weavers and 20 pastrycooks. There are 67 shoemakers, 40 furriers, 20 masons, 18 carpenters, 14 coopers, 14 chandlers and 13 bakers. There are copyists, cutlers, painters, woodcarvers. But mostly, the population are farmers and laborers."

Defenses

It is a walled, heavily fortified city. The city walls are about 8,300 feet in total length, range from 12-24 feet in height and are from 8-15 feet thick. The rubble construction uses an ashlar facing and lime mortar. There are nine bastions, each a cylindrical stone tower about 137 feet in diameter and 90 feet tall. There are five gates, each with a gatehouse and portcullis. The gatehouses are each about 160 feet wide, 50 feet tall, consisting of two 60-foot diameter, 76 feet tall stone wall towers on each side of the gate.

The keep, located on the highest real estate in the city (Enlod Hill, rising 55 feet above the rest of the city), is a 415 by 484 feet rectangular fortress with four wall towers. The walls here are 14 feet thick and 22 feet tall. Militia units in the city are based in the bastions, with regular patrols sent out along the walls. There are generally up to 250 militia garrisoned in Enlod in peacetime, but the fortress can easily hold more troops. If the outer walls are broken through, there are thought enough wells and storage areas in the keep to outlast a siege.

Faith

The woods to the west of the city are part of the eastern edge of the Forest of Arcachon, which covers most of the Dark Isle. Up the temple road, in the outskirts of the forest is the Wellspring Temple, the oldest temple of the Adgharhin. According to the Adgharhin, the city of Enlod was built by Adaghar himself and is the oldest city in the world.
