Description

The City

The kingdom of Alluran banner flutters above the guardhouses overlooking the harbours. A temperate ocean breeze sweeps over the bustling dock to the south-west as merchants unload their wares for sale in the vibrant commercial district. The smaller dock to the east is mostly used by locals and government officials for their business. To the south are the limited farmlands that feed the granaries and silos and serve as an emergency food supply in the event of a siege. The mighty walls and towering spires stretch from east to west across the north with only three major gates each one opening to the splendor of an architectural masterpiece. The grandeur of the stonework and design of the fortified bridges leading to Brovyl, Bolkenia and Xween, are widely admired. The north is the training ground and armouries for the city's garrison along with the workshops and military academy. Each knight of the city is granted an estate in the city's many residential communities. Each of these communities consists of a plaza complete with a local marketplace, blacksmith, inn and tavern. The duchess estate is located by the central plaza along with the government offices and main temple of Alluran. The duchess is rumoured to spend her spare time in her rooftop garden overlooking one of the most populous cities on the continent.

Surroundings

The city is bordered on three sides by the rivers coming down from the mountains. In the south is open ocean. Across the bridges to the west lies the rural region of Xween. To the north townships dot the sides of the river in Brovyl. Across the bridge to the east is the Riombara controlled region of Bolkenia.

Military

Nobles

(list knights here, along with titles as appropriate)

  • Annaej, Duchess of Eno, Marshal of the Holy Alluran Army.
  • Distorted, Founder and former King of Alluran, Acolyte of Alluran, Sponsor of the Army of Alluran and the Oshan Guard.
  • Niallan, Royal Treasurer of the Kingdom of Alluran.

Recruits

Defenders of Alluran The Defenders of Alluran are the backbone of the Alluran military. They draw their recruits from the able bodied commoners of the city. They are well equipped with a range of melee weapons and have adequate training to make them a potent fighting force in the field.

Eno Macemen The Eno Macemen are a well trained to wield their heavy maces for crushing enemy armour. They are lightly armoured to increase mobility and allow them to bring their weapons to bear. These men serve more as emergency recruits and fight well from behind fortifications to protect them from range fire.

Eno Swordsmen The Eno Swordsmen are the veteran fighting force of the Alluran army. They are a highly trained soldiers with additional armour so they can put that training to good use. As their name suggests, these men wield long swords for slashing through poorly armoured foe. Unfortunately because of their higher cost most nobles will not be recruiting a large number of these elite troops.
