Vandelheim

The capital city of Vantice.

Demographics

Vandelheim is populated majorly by humans, who are all wealthy in monetary, arcane, or strategic military value, hence their location near to the king. Any non-human is either an important outsider with special services, or a slave to the many rich houses that struggle day and night for more power under the king.

Defences

The defences of Vandelheim, much like other cities under Vantician rule, is a myriad of intimidating gray stone walls, spike-filled moats, looming towers equipped with catapaults, and thousands of plate-mail clad warriors.

History

Three generations prior to Adonnus' rule, the city of Vandelheim was being constructed by the kingdom's then ruler, Malakai Vantice. In the height of the kingdom's greatest civil war, Adonnus' ancestors overthrew Malakai and claimed the city for their own.

Geography

Vandelheim exists on a massive switchback mountainside, splitting the settlement into four districts, each one higher than the last.
