The City of Boreamorr
Kingdom of Armania
Population: 24,000
The Lord of Boreamorr:
For almost 1500 years the line of succession had been unbroken in Boreamorr. Lord Crowell traced his lineage directly back to Lord Arengard who was originally granted Boreamorr and its lands by the King of Armania, following the defeat of the Uranian Empire.
On November 12, in the year of our King, 1226 the army of Shelleth arose from the undercity and attacked the good people of Boreamorr. Lord Crowell, his family and heirs were publicly executed. The succession of Boreamorr, which has been unbroken for 1500 years, had been severed. The fate of this great city was forever changed.
Now an Evil Overlord is newly in charge of the city. As his orcs and goblins (and the occasional ogre or other nasty) patrol the streets, he has introduced strict new rules that make everyone's life a living hell. Built mostly with slave labor of the captive residents of Boreamorr, the Overlord has placed walls, dividing the city. The Royal Sector has always been seperated by a wall. Now the city proper is divided into 6 sectors; the central sector, the North-West sector, the North-East sector, the South-East, the South-West sector and the Port sector. Each sector is isolated by high stone walls and gates.
The City:
A large walled coastal city located at the eastern tip of Boreamorr Bay. Boreamorr is an important city, located at a crossroads for trade, it is the second largest city in Armania. Boreamorr boasts the second largest fleet in Armainia, both a military and merchant fleet. Additionally it has the most productive shipyard, rivaling Kingsburgh both in quality and in quantity. This is partially due to better access to timber for building. Boreamorr is not only a major commerce asset to Armania but also a major military asset. Strategically located, troops are able to respond quickly too much of the northern reaches of the kingdom. Between the military shipyards, military fleet, and military barracks, the military is the largest single employer of Boreamorr. Boreamorr residences are heavily taxed in order to support the large military presence in its city, but unlike many cities of Armania much of the tax money remains in the local economy. As a whole Boreamorr’s population is loyal to the King.
The Undercity:
Beneath the city a maze of basements, tunnels, sewers, and caves create a second city below the buildings. Although this exists in most large cities, none rivals the complexity of Boreamorr’s Undercity. Thieves’ guild, dark mages, demons and vile creatures use this undercity to hide their actions from the light of day and
