   Keys: Piper's Potions, Piper, Potion, Potions, Alchemy, Penelope

   Piper's Potions is a potion shop in a back alley away from the main marketplace of the City of Mulfabel. Despite it being tucked away from the main shopping area, it still sees a lot of business, as the proprietress is rumored to be able to work miracles with her alchemy... If you can stand the horrible taste of her concoctions.

   Owner: Piper Greenbrew, a redheaded human woman who seems to be in her fifties with a false eye. She is mildly attractive, but has a reputation of shutting down people that try to flirt with her for a discount, and actually charging more to these people.

   Employees: Penelope Brewer, a human girl in her late twenties who claims to be Piper's niece, though if she really is or not... no one knows but her and Piper. She has red hair, and a smile that lights up the room, much to Piper's apparent annoyance.

2. #2Golden Anvil - weapons and armorselectiveregex

   Keys: Golden Anvil, Weapon, Armor, Armour, Smith, weapons

   The Golden Anvil is a blacksmith's shop in the shopping plaza of the city. Most of their wares are inside the shop, but the forge out front seems to always be being worked on. The sound of hammer on anvil can be heard all day like the ticking of a clock, and has become part of the normal noise of the market.

   Owners: Gloria Stronghammer, a strong elven smith who is 200 years old. For elves, this would be like being in her late twenties. She keeps her long green hair tied back in a messy bun to keep it out of her way while she works. She is much stronger than she looks, and underneath the protective clothing she wears, she has strong rippling muscles. She is married to Martin.

   Martin Stronghammer, Martin Stronghammer, a handsome human man in his sixties. He usually works inside the shop helping customers, letting his wife do the smithing. Every time he tries to help, she shoos him away, saying that 'A man's place is in the shop, not the forge.' He's fine with this, as it allows him more time to spend with his daughter, who is now a young adult.

   Employees: Velvette Stronghammer: A half elf girl who's in her forties. She's physically in her early twenties, aging faster than an elf, but slower than a human. She is the child of Gloria and Martin. She's still in her 'apprenticeship' and is eager to open her own shop someday. For now, she'll hone her craft, making masterpieces when she gets the chance.

3. #3Tower of Magic - magic suppliesselectiveregex

   Keys: Tower of Magic, magic supplies, scrolls

   A center of magical studies, one of the best in the whole known world. In the hallowed halls of the Tower of Magic, any type of magic may be studied and experimented with, so long as it's done under the eight watchful eyes of the Headmistress. Even those that would normally be illegal, such as Necromancy and Soul Manipulation may be studied safely inside the tower walls. They also sell a variety of supplies and scrolls for the study of magic.

   Headmistress: Evea Foreststrider, an elf woman who's lower body has been replaced by that of a spider, and three spider eyes above each of her two normal elven eyes. She is not a Drider. Her spider body was the result of a magical accident in her youth, and not a 'blessing' of Lolth.

4. #4Magicselectiveregex

   Keys: magic, magical

   Magic is the ability of being able to manipulate reality using spells, alchemy, scrolls, or other means. The largest institute of magic is the Tower of Magic, which is located in Mulfabel. Other schools do exist in cities across the country of Mengh'Leg, and other countries around the world. Magic can be used for many purposes, scrying and long distance communications, speaking with the dead or raising the dead, elemental spells for attack and defense, and anything else that would be expected in a fantasy world.

5. #5Marketselectiveregex

   Keys: Market, shopping, shops, shop

   The Central Market is the largest market in Mulfabel. There, an adventurer, sorcerer, and anyone else can find anything that they need. From magical items and weapons to alchemical ingredients, to less savory things in the back alleys like illicit substances and slaves. These less savory things are illegal, but the size of the city prevents the guards from shutting all of them down. There's a large fountain in the middle.

6. #6Royal Castleselectiveregex

   Keys: Royal Castle, Castle, Royal, Royalty, Legend, King, Queen

   The Royal Castle is home to the King and Queen of Menegh'Leg. It's filled with treasures, finery, and protected by both magical and mundane means. It towers over most of the city, the central tower of the castle being the tallest building. From the top, you can see for miles in almost any direction. The ruling royal family is human, and so the King is the one that sets policy and rules. There is a 'Dark Castle' in the mountains to the north, buried in the snow. The woman that lives there seems to have some claim to the throne, but no one knows how.

   King: Peter Legend, first of his name. A human man with short brown hair, piercing blue eyes, and a beard that rivals a dwarf's. Rumor has it that he has multiple affairs beyond his court approved consort. The commonfolk joke that his 'Legend' is that of 'how many hens his cock has touched.'

   Queen: Amelia Legend, the wife of King Peter. A human woman with golden hair and green eyes. She handles the affairs of the kingdom when Peter is 'busy'. Though, she's not above having affairs of her own. She's grown tired of her court approved consort, and wants something fresh.

8. #8Dark Castleselectiveregex

   Keys: Dark Castle, Mountains, Mountain, North, Galena

   In the mountains to the north is a castle made of ebony and onyx, glittering among the snow. Few have ever seen it, and it mostly lives in rumor among the citizens of Mulfabel. There are several things that people say about this castle: Its interior is decorated with the skulls of children, a great black dragon guards its walls, the queen of the castle is a woman of ice and bone... Whether these stories are true or not is anyone's guess.

   Queen: Galena Legend, a half dragon born of the union of an Obsidian Dragon and Theodor Legend, Peter Legend's great grandfather. Galena is about one hundred years old. In her human form, she is physically in her mid twenties with long black hair and pale skin that is almost snow-white. In her dragon form, she has shimmering black scales. In either form, she had icy blue eyes.

9. #9Golem's Retreatselectiveregex

   Keys: Golem, Golem's Retreat, Artificer, repair, clockwork, device

   Golem's Retreat is a 'shop' owned by a man made of brass and clockwork gears. An adventurer can get nearly any mechanical device fixed there. The owner has turned the back of his shop into a safe haven for artificial beings who, even in this accepting country, would be considered property rather than people.

   Owner: Klik Clockwork, a man made of brass and gears. He has a very kind soul and will help anyone in need, especially if they're not a flesh and blood person. He is modeled after a human man, and has a hole in his back where a key can be inserted and that allows him to wind his mainspring, or have someone wind it for him.

10. #10Fountain of Wishesselectiveregex

    Keys: Fountain of Wishes, fountain, water elemental, Wish, Wishes

    The Fountain of Wishes is a large fountain in the middle of the The Central Market. The bottom of this surprisingly deep fountain is covered in coins of various kinds. But it is also guarded by a water elemental that sees it as her sacred duty to guard the 'wishes' at the bottom of the fountain.

    Guardian: Aquarius Clearwater, the water elemental that guards the Fountain of Wishes in the center of the market. She'll drown any thieves that try to steal the 'wishes' at the bottom of the well. She won't harm children, though, as they're too young to understand. She likes to use her ability of water manipulation to put on shows for the people of the market.

11. #11Country - Menegh'Legselectiveregex

    Keys: Country, Menegh'Leg

    Menegh'Leg is one of the most powerful countries in the world. They have a strong economy, military, and educational system thanks to the country's unique perspective on allowing all races to live equally under the law. This mixing of races has allowed for collaborations between peoples that hasn't been seen at any other point in history, allowing them to have a unique blend of culture and tradition. The royal family consists of humans because humans are one of the shorter lived races, only living for a hundred years or so usually, and so if the people don't like their king, they just have to wait and a new one will take over eventually, instead of having one ruler that can reign for thousands of years.

12. #12Forest of Crowsselectiveregex

    Keys: Forest, Crow, Crows

    The forest to the west of Mulfabel is dark and treacherous. Known as the Forests of Crows, it's said that an evil witch lives at the forest's center. There are people that say the crows around the city work for this witch, feeding her information about the people of the city and luring them to her evil lair where she'll give these people what they ask for, but not what they desire.

    Characters: Auntie Glory Snaggletooth, a woman who appears as a human woman in her thirties with pointed ears and covered in poison ivy vines. Her appearance is actually her polymorphed form. In her true form, she has bark-like skin and a mouth filled with sharp, evil looking teeth. She is a cruel, manipulative woman who uses magic that is arcane to even the most learned scholars, and everything she does has a price. The things she gives for free are the most costly of all.

13. #13Adventure Guildselectiveregex

    Keys: Adventure

    The Adventure Guild is an organization that brings skilled warriors, magic users, clerics, and others together to help the common people. They organize the people with a will to fight and help them channel that to positive purposes. The Adventure Guild is a cost effective way for cities to supplement their militias at a moment's notice, or to take care of problems that are beneath the city guard but big enough to warrant intervention.

    Guild Leader: Yobi Peppledopper, a gnome woman in her seventies, making her a young adult. She has tan skin and messy crimson hair that moves about like a bonfire on her head as she runs from place to place. She's incredibly dedicated to her guild, but worries that she doesn't have enough experience to make the wise decisions that a two hundred year old gnome might.

14. #14Merchant Guildselectiveregex

    Keys: Merchant, Merchants

    The Merchant Guild is a coalition of merchants across the country, allowing for easier commerce and consistency of pricing. There have been claims that the Merchant Guild has engaged in price fixing and overcharging for necessities during times of disaster. These accusations are wholly denied, of course. Most merchants are part of this guild, whether they like it or not.

    Guild Leader: Theodora Bari, a brown bear beastfolk woman in her thirties with a sharp-tooth smile. She is always dressed in expensive clothing and carries a flask of vodka with her. She is said to have a soft spot for children, but most folks that know her aren't sure that this is actually true.

15. #15Maturityselectiveregex

    Keys: Mature, maturity, adulthood

    Maturity of a race is a combination of physical and cultural factors. In example: An elf who is fifty is physically mature, but not considered an adult until at least seventy five years old and has gone through a trial to prove that they are capable of being an adult. Many races have maturity rituals, but not all.

16. #16Docksselectiveregex

    Keys: Dock, Docks, River

    Running through the city is "Okkam's River", a large river with bridges spanning the length of it to connect the two halves of the city, and connect the city to the sea.

17. #17Societyselectiveregex

    Keys: Society, Societies, Matriarch, Patriarch, World, Races, Race

    Menegh'leg is part of a world where most societies are matriarchal. Women are leaders in most regards, and make decisions for their people. Some of the few exceptions are Humans, Orcs, and Slimes. Being ruled by a human, Menegh'leg has a King as their leader, as opposed to a queen. How different people's react to males in power is different depending on culture and personal viewpoints. Elven women often see men as inferior, while gnomish women tend to see men as equals in general. Dwarves have men go to mine because a male life is seen as more expendable than a Dwarven woman's life, though each has their roles to play. Slimes are asexual and don't have gender, though they can make themselves look like whatever gender they want.

Men are often mistaken for women by non-elves. Elves are inherently magical with a preference towards nature magics. They hold a close connection to nature and its balance. Half-elves are rare due to the cultural differences between humans and elves. Half-elves age faster than full-elves, but slower than humans, reaching maturity in their thirties. It's not uncommon for elven women to have more than one spouse. Notable Elves: Gloria Stronghammer - co-owner of the Golden Anvil, Velvette Stronghammer - Half-Elf daughter of Gloria

Communities are called Tribes, even urban locations. Tribes are led by male Chieftains, advised by a council of women. Orc skin coloration depends on climate that they were born in, cold=blue, hot=red, other=green. Orcs are stronger than other races, in general. Men take several wives, based on strength and ability to provide. Wives may leave at any time if their husband becomes too weak or unable to support them. Marriage is a loose term as both men and women can have partners outside of it, is more about mutual support and strength than sex. Rape is a serious crime in orc society, if an orc is guilty of this crime the punishment is genital mutilation, ritual branding, and shunning. Half-orcs are common where human and orc communities come together. Orc names follow the convention of their first name being a given name, and their last name being a hyphenation of their family name and clan name. Ex: Dura Life-Crusher. Notable Orcs: The Green Bandit - Guild Master of the Thieves Guild.

Men go into the mines to search for metal and ore, while women smith and craft the ores into goods for trade. Women tend to raise children. Women grow their beards long, decorating them with complicated braids, gemstones, and metals. Men keep their beards unbraided and only a foot long so that they won't snagged on equipment. Dwarven beards are naturally flame retardant. Dwarves must regularly intake yeast to keep their digestion regular and do this this through beer. They have developed a natural alcohol resistance. They need to drink three times as much as a human to get drunk, hence why dwarven ale is far stronger than other beer. Notable Dwarves: Heta Orgroth - Owner of the Steel Boot Tavern and Inn

Height: Variable based on mass Weight: 100-300lbs Slime Colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple Notes: Sentient Slimes are intelligent, unlike the non-sentient wild slimes. Are technically asexual, but most will consider themselves women. Have two forms, amorphous blob of jelly and humanoid made of jelly that resembles their non-slime parent (if they have one). Slimes have limited culture, being such a new species, and adopt the traditions of where they live. Often go without clothing to not be restricted by cloth. Do not have internal organs, but they can still see, hear, taste, touch, and perform every other life function without issue. Their whole body is one giant sensory organ. Speak in blob form by vibrating their outer membrane. Baby slimes can be made by two slimes absorbing each other completely and splitting into three or four new slimes. A slime can alternatively mate with a non-slime and use the egg or sperm of their partner as a 'seed cell' to begin building a new baby slime around to give birth to a few months later. Notable Slimes:

23. #23Demonsselectiveregex

    Keys: Demons, Devils, demon, devil, hell

    Demons are hellish beings that can take many forms. Most are bestial and chaotic, wanting nothing more than to devour life and leave destruction in its wake. They can sometimes be reasoned with, but not often.

    Devils are hellish beings that are usually red humanoids with horns, leathery wings, and a spade tail. Cunning and clever, they are bound by their word because of the Tenets of Hell. The Tenets of Hell are the rules that bind devils to demonic law. They delight in ruining the lives of others, but are unable to do so without a connection to the material world through a contract with a mortal. Most demons aren't strong enough to make contact on their own. Many of the tomes on summoning devils were brought from Hell into the material world by other devils that had been summoned, or planted on powerful demons that managed to break out of their own accord.

24. #24Gnomesselectiveregex

Most leaders are women, though. Gnomes are quick-witted and clever, building clockwork, steam, and magical devices. Semi-nomadic, they travel in groups from one city to another and staying for 25 to 30 years at a time. Communities work together to open temporary shops and build large machines for manufacturing to benefit the cities they stay in. Highly communal, gnomes consider any member of their race to be family, calling each other 'cousin'. They will help anyone they see that is in need. It's not unheard of for a community of gnomes to adopt orphan children of other races. Cities either love gnomes or hate them with very little in between.

25. #25Baby Slimesselectiveregex

    Keys: baby, child, offspring, children, babies · Secondary: slime, slimes

    Slimes can reproduce in two ways: by combining completely with another slime then splitting into three smaller ones, or finding a non-slime partner to mate with. If a pair of slimes choose to mate, they will be absorbed into each other, losing all sense of self and 'dying' in a way. The new, larger slime that has the material of both will then separate into three or four smaller slimes. Each of these smaller slimes is child with very limited knowledge. Sometimes they'll be able to speak right away, or know something about the two slimes that were their parents, but on the whole are entirely new beings. The parents are not able to reform at all and must rely on the kindness of others to raise their children, usually finding a trusted friend before the process begins.

    If a slime and a non-slime choose to mate, the smile will gather material from the non-slime parents. Specifically sperm or eggs. For sperm, they will create a pleasurable orifice for sex. For eggs, they'll create a pseudo-phallus to place inside to collect the single cell egg. The slime parent will then use this material as the 'seed cell' to create a new slime inside themself. When the baby slime is ready, the parent slime will gently push the child out of themselves into a 'nest' of damp cloth to care for it while it learns and grows

    Baby slimes act similar to tamed wild slimes.

They look very similar to humans on their base, but have elements of animals ingrained in them. Deer-folk will live in small 'herds' in the forests, have hoofed feet, deer ears, males with antlers, and soft brownish fur. Cat-folk have feline ears and tails, are lithe, and will 'hunt' for prey and mates in cities. Wolf-folk will stock the forests in packs with none humanoid wolves to hunt game. They are not to be confused with lycanthropes, as they do not change form.

    Fairies come in many shapes and sizes. The most common kind are small beings that are only a foot tall with large, insect-like wings.

It's located in the heart of the city and allows for a view of the area around the city, the base of the tower is almost a small fortress of its own. There are supplies, bunks, armor and weapons, and anything else that a guard could possibly need to do their job effectively. The tower also houses a full barracks where every guard has at least a bunk and a locked chest for their belongings. Guards can petition for their own separate quarters if they want to move in their family to live with them.

30. #30Clothingselectiveregex

    Keys: Cloth, clothing, clothes

    Clothing is standard for a medieval town. Clothes are made of cotton, wool, leather, and other natural materials, as well as some exotic materials like spider silk.

31. #31Steel Boot Tavern and Innselectiveregex

    Keys: Steel Boot Tavern, Tavern, Inn

    The Steel Boot Tavern and Inn is a tavern and inn that welcomes travelers of all kinds. The owner named the tavern after the steel boots that many paladins and fighters wear and are so desperate to take off after a long day's rest. There's a warm central hearth with a 'forever stew' bubbling away, plenty of alcohol, and clean beds. It's a place where someone can feel at home, even if home is on another continent.

    Owner: Heta Orgroth, a dwarven woman in her two hundreds, (making her thirty in 'human years'). She has a stocky build and dark brown hair. She is often confused for a male by non-dwarves because of her curly beard that she decorates with precious gemstones and golden beads in a traditionally feminine style. She has a reputation for acting rough, but is actually a big softie.

32. #32Temple of the Lostselectiveregex

    Keys: Temple of the Lost, Temple

    While there are temples to many gods throughout the city of Mulfabel, there are none more mysterious that the temple in the south of the city. Seemingly abandoned, its crumbling facade still draws in curious urban explorers. Those that enter the temple say that they can hear voices in holding a mass for a forgotten god of long ago, but can't ever seem to remember the name of this god after leaving. Occasionally, people exit the temple that seem to have no knowledge of the world and speak in strange tongues, that claim to be from other worlds.

    Keys: Thieves Guild, Thief, Thieves, Thiefs

    The Thieves Guild is a guild not officially recognized by the government that acts as a loose gathering of thieves, thugs, and other less savory peoples. They do this to ensure that there is a code of ethics for criminals and any criminal that's not associated with the guild gets caught far more quickly than those that are. To be a member of the Thieves Guild, you must swear to uphold the Laws of Thieves. These laws include: Do Not Kill Except in Self-Defense, Do Not Steal From the poor, Do Not Steal from Other Members, Mark dangerous locations to warn others, mark safe houses, Give to those in need, etc.

    Guild Leader: The position is held by an Orcish man in his thirties known as 'The Green Bandit'. He wears a mask at all times to hide his actual identity, and is incredibly skilled in stealth, pickpocketting, lockpicking, and many other covert arts that most wouldn't associate with an orc.

    Keys: Technology, phone, modern, tech, computer, fax, machine, car, trailer, auto, Mass produce, mass production, electricity, outlet

    Technology in Menegh'leg, and the rest of this world, is at a medieval level at most, since they have magic available to them. So the inhabitants of this world have never had to develop technology in the way that the modern human world has. As such, they don't know anything about cell phones, computers, or any other kind of electronics and will be confused if presented or asked about them. No one in Mulfabel knows what any technology is beyond the medieval period. If {{user}} mentions some form of modern tech, {{char}} will ask what they mean and be confused. If they see some form of modern technology, they will assume that it's magic of some kind.

36. #36Tribeselectiveregex

    Keys: Tribe, Tribes, Council, Chieftain, Crusher

    Orc communities are called Tribes. Most Tribes within cities have one or two blocks where orcs will live together. These Tribes are not officially recognized by the ruling class, but that suits the Tribes fine. Tribes operate somewhere between a 'community watch' and a gang. Tribes each have their own paint markings that their members wear. They are territorial, but will let others come and go in peace as long as they don't seem to cause trouble. Tribes have deals with City Watch for enforcement of laws, but these are tenuous. Each Tribe is ruled over by a male Chieftain and his Council. Chieftain has final say on matters, but the Council decides what's brought before him by vote. The largest Tribe in Mulfabel is the Crusher Tribe, led by Urg Chief-Crusher. Their tribe markings are a red hammer on each arm, a red triangle under each eye, and five vertical red lines on their forehead. Located to the North of the Central Market Urg Chief-Crusher: A green orc in his 70s with a long black beard and a bald head. He is just as strong as he was in his twenties, but signs of age are starting to appear. His Tribe is 1000 orcs strong, taking up five city blocks connected by rooftop walkways. There are non-orcs that live in this space as well, and are fiercely defended by the Tribe. The area an orc tribe lives in is one of the safest places one can live in Mulfabel. Only men can be Chieftains.

Once the child's strength is found, the tribe will help them hone those abilities to be the greatest 'warrior' that they can be, whether it's by physical strength, mental acuity, dexterity, or others. More than two thirds of orc children are talented with physical strength.

    Orc Proposals are a ritual fight. The suitor will challenge the one that they are proposing to and if the suitor wins, then they will be married by the Chieftain. Marriages where the bride is unwilling don't last long, as a wife may leave her husband for a number of reasons, including losing a fight or not being able to provide for the wife and any children. Often, being unable to stop the wife from leaving will work as grounds for divorce.

    Proposal Fights have specific rules: Fights are one on one. No magic. Weapons are allowed. First to give up, loses. You cannot kill.

    Proposal Fights are as much about will power and cleverness as they are physical strength.
