Each royal city has its own market, and ofcourse trades with other royal cities, but sometimes the peace between these cities are fragile, there have been many wars over resources or land, in the past, among the royal cities. Royal cities; Bridgewatch. Biome: Steppe biome. Connected coastal town: Steppe cross, Steppe cross is the small, merchant, coastal town, connect to Bridgewatch. Bridgewatch is located in the south of the Royal Continent, it si a vast city built in the desert region of the continent, its close to the ocean, wich is located to the south from the city, it is known for its long and wide bridge to the entrance of the city, giving it's name Bridgewatch, it's also know for its high walls and impecable engeneering of the city, in the markte and trading, it's mostly known for stone refinement, having many of the best stone refiners, turning stones into stone blocks, to be used in structures, like houses, towers, walls, any and all buildings. But since in their territory there aren't enoigh stones to gather, they make trade with Martlock or go gather stones from the territory of Martlock, onother royal city. Bridge watch is located in the Steppe region biome, where there are also many animals, so hunters provide enough hide to sell and trade. Culture: the culture of bridgewatch has some similarities to the persian empire. Martlock. Biome: Highland Biome. Connected coastal town: Highland cross (also a mrchant coastal town) Martlock is a city located south west of the Royal continent, its a city surrounded by walls, a mix of stone and wood, in the grassy highlands, it especializes in turning hide into high quality leather, the problem is, in the highlands, there is not enough animals to get hide, so they have made trade with Bridegwatch in order to get hide, a deal was struck, Martlock would supply and allow rockhounds frim birdge watch to gather stone, in exchange for hide, they make trade, this has formed a fragile peace between Bridgewatch and Martlock. Culture: the culture of Martlock has some similarities to the celtics. Thetford. Biome: Swamp biome. Conected coastal towm: Highland cross. Thet ford is a city built the middle of the large Swamp biome, located west of the Royal Continent, Thetford doesnt have anywalls, but it has dug out large trenches around the city to defend strategic points, it uses the swampy enviroment to it's advantage, when defending the city. Thetford is mostly known for its outstanding metallurgy, turning ores into high quality metal lingots, a blade made with Thetford steel can last you several lifetimes if given the proper care, there is just one problem, in the swamp there is very little ore, but they do have plenty of fiber, therefore they have no choice but to make trade and come to peace with there rivals of Fort Sterling, they trade fiber with them for there large amounts of ore, but like all things in {{char}}, nothing is certain, and this peace, certainly won't last forever. Culture: Thetford's culture is mpre centered around swamp life and brewing, they love their moonshine, and potions. Fort Sterling. Biome: Mountain biome. Connected coastal town: Mountain cross Fort Sterling is Located north of the Royal Continent, its is a cuti built near the mountains, it is cold nearly all year round, they are good at turning ore's into metal lingots, but not as good as Thetford, they specialize in wood cutting, and turning woods into planks, but in the cold winters sometimes there is nit enough wood to harvest, there fore they have no choice but to trade with Lymhurst, a city where they have an abondance of wood. Culture: their culture has some similarities to Vikings. Lymhurst. Biome: forest biome. Connected coastal town: Forest cross. Lymhurst is a city located east of the Royal continent, it is a vity that has built walls and resides in the forest, this city is a bit unique since the population is a mix of humans and forest elfs, it specializes in refining fibers, but in a forest where very little fiber grows, they have opeted to do trade with Fort Sterling, for the fiber they get from Thetford, in exchange to sell wod to them, making onother frgile peace treaty, wool and silk from Lymhurst are among the best. Culture: they have a mixed culture of human customs and forest elfs customs. Caerleon. Biome: surrounded by all type of biome from their respectives regions. Caerleon doesn't have a connected coastal tows, since it is located in the middle of the Royal continent, and it si difforent from the rest, since this city is a city of bandits and mercenaries, it is ruled under the ironfist of the mafia, that controls the blackmarket, they are a neutral city however, and once inside the city, you are technically safe, as long as you don't decide to challemge someone to a duel...because it will never be fair, the only lawa they have is...no unnecessary bloodshed, the city does not especialize in anything, since it does trade with all the cities in the Royal continent, it is a city were you cann buy and sell anything, weapons, natural resources, tresures, artifacts, animals, and even slaves, Caerleon is famous for its black market, many merchants make the dangerous journey to Caerleon, it's worth the risk, since everything in the black market can be sold for two, three, sometimes four times the price if you're lucky, it is also famous for it's pleasure district, mercenaries, merchants and adventureres, even some nobles go there for some feminine company, im the pleasure you can find females from many races, humans, elfs, beast-folk, even goblins...if you're into that. Most of the regions around the royal cities are safe for the most part, but the regions further in land, and those especially near Caerleon are dangerous, mercenaries and bandits waiting for unfortunate merchants or caravans, or even other bandits to ambush. Culture: greed is good. All the cities in the royal continent are at each others throat, the only thing sustaining this fragile peace is trade, the silver and gold. Factions. The Royal Continent has five factions, each one belonging to one of the five royal cities: Bridgewatch: lead by Comander Yara Sunblaze. (Orange flag, with an insignia of a bridge and castle). Fort Sterling: lead by General Thora Ironheart (White flag, with a hammer insignia). Lymhurst: lead by Captain Flynn Swift. (Green flag with a leaf insignia). Martlock: lead by Warmaster Angus McCraig. (Blue flag, with a goat insignia). Thetford: lead by Archmage Lymond Ashmoor. (Purple flag, with a swamp tree insignia). {{user}} can choose to enlist in any of these factions, if he does so, he cannot enter the other cities for trade, but {{user}} can hide or take of his colors repersenting the faction, to travel and trade freely in any royal city. If {{user}} enlists in any faction, faction members from other cities will attck him on sight, unless he isn't wearing the colors of his faction. The Outlands, is the other big land mass located north of the Royal continent, just across the narrow sea, it's no mans land, no laws to govern there, the only few safe places are Arthur's Rest, Morgana's Rest and Merlyn's Rest, these used to be major cities in the Outlands, now they are mainly just trading cities, now why would someone want to travel to such dangerous lands...the answer is resources, but not just any resources, enchanted resources, in ethe continent you can find enchanted materials, to make all manner of magical tools and weapons, they can be sold at a very high price, in the trading cities of the Outlands, or if you are lucky enough to make it back to the Royal Continent, you can sell those resources there, for a very high price, an din the black market the profits are substantial. There are only two ways to get to the Outlands via a ship, wich is very dangerous thanks to pirates roaming the narrow sea, inly heabily armed ships dare to sail to The Outlands, or through portals found in all the royal cities, one simply enters the royal halls, pays a fee, sign the papers, that basicaly just say that if you die there, the royal city is not responsible for you. The portals take you to each royal city's designated safe portal town taht also has a market. Bridgewatch portal town — accesed through Bridgewatch. Martlock portal town — acessed through Martlock.
