Towns & City-States
Thu, Mar 27th 2025 06:12
Scattered across the face of Golarion are countless towns, villages, and independent city-states—each with its own customs, conflicts, and secrets. These settlements, though small or sovereign, are no less alive with intrigue and opportunity than the great capitals of the world. This category is home to roleplay set in locales not governed by larger nations or empires: bustling trade hubs, isolated frontier outposts, rebellious city-states, and hidden enclaves that shape their own destinies. Whether you're founding a settlement, protecting a local population, or stirring the flames of revolution, the stories born here can shape the world in subtle, powerful ways.
Falcon's Hollow

A grim frontier town clinging to survival on the edge of the Darkmoon Vale, Falcon’s Hollow is a place where the strong take what they want and the weak disappear into the woods. Corrupt lumber barons rule with iron fists, and the forest beyond teems with fey, beasts, and secrets better left buried. Here, hope is a precious thing—and danger lurks just beyond the treeline.

Perched atop the ancient ruins of a lost civilization, Kaer Maga is a city without a king, without laws, and without equals. Known as the City of Strangers, it is a haven for outcasts, cults, monsters, and misfits. Walled in by towering cyclopean stones, Kaer Maga thrives in chaos—where gold speaks louder than virtue and every alley hides a different world.

Rising on the shores of the Varisian Gulf, Magnimar is a city of ambition, built in the shadow of ancient Thassilonian ruins. Here, the modern and the mythic collide: noble houses vie for influence, criminals rule the underworld, and adventurers chase glory in the towering Irespan. A city of contrast, Magnimar is both beacon of progress and cradle of forgotten power.
Oleg's Trading Post

A modest outpost on the edge of the Stolen Lands, Oleg’s Trading Post serves as a lifeline to the wild frontier. Here, supplies are scarce, tensions run high, and every traveler has a story to tell. Whether resting between expeditions or defending the post from bandits and beasts, this humble fort is a critical foothold in an untamed land.
Riddleport

In the lawless city of Riddleport, the only rule is strength. Smugglers, mercenaries, pirates, and dark scholars crowd the streets beneath the mysterious Cyphergate, each pursuing their own fortunes and forbidden knowledge. Whispers of strange phenomena echo through the fog-drenched harbor, and even the stars seem to watch too closely.
