Gramsby
Demographics
Gramsby is home to a large number of humans,halflings,half-elves,and dragonborns. With much smaller populations of half-orcs and dwarves. The ruling bodies do their best to provide everyone with an income. That income is based on the skill of the worker and their particular trade. This does not always create an equal playing field for all citizens, but every citizen is allowed to find outside ways of making extra money.
Government
Kalaphex has granted Bishop Executar control of the city alongside the church. Executar was the bishop who found Kalaphex as a child and helped teach him everything he knows. In return, Kalaphex placed his unwavering trust in his bishop and appointed him ruler of the city. Kalaphex words and laws must be obeyed within the city, but the bishop and church handle day-to-day operations and problems that may arise.
Defences
Gramsby has a massive wall surrounding the city, and on the outside of the wall is a moat that surrounds the wall. There is only one drawbridge to get in or out of the city. Gramsby has its own city guard that protects the people. The bishop has put together his own group of religious zealots who also assist in protecting the city, known as the Paragons of Law. However, the paragons answer directly to the bishop, not Kalaphex.

History
Founded a couple decades after Everton, Gramsby quickly became the religious capital of the moor. Creating almost a dozen temples or altars for the various gods that looked over Agodale. Many of these temples and altars still exist today. The church of Ulldar and its clergymen took to the city very quickly after its inception, creating a massive citadel within the city to be the head of the church. For the first time in the history of the city, a clergyman of the church, Bishop Executar, has been made the ruler of the city under orders from King Kalaphex.
Tourism
Tourism is strongly encouraged within the city, hoping to pull more people into the many religions that are still practiced within the city. Also, the vast network of libraries with a wealth of information on the world pre-racking pulls in numerous tourists.
Architecture
Gothic architecture is the predominant style in not only Everton but the moor. Verticality is emphasized in Gothic architecture, which features almost skeletal stone structures with great expanses of glass, pared-down wall surfaces supported by external flying buttresses, pointed arches using the ogive shape, ribbed stone vaults, clustered columns, pinnacles, and sharply pointed spires. Windows contain stained glass, showing stories from ancient religious texts and from the lives of saints. Such advances in design allowed cathedrals to rise taller than ever.
Geography
Settled close to the coral bay, Gramsby has a decent amount of ships that are stored at a port on the bay. Gramsby has a large forest to the north and east of it, rumored to be host to dark magic users.
Natural Resources
Plant life grows in abundance here, creating a large surplus of food and flora. Because of the fertile land, there is more than enough grass for farmers to have large amounts of livestock, creating a huge market for oxen, horses,sheep,cattle, and other various livestock.
