Eldermere City
The capital city of the Caspary Empire, founded by Queen Azena Caspary, First of her name, Ruler of Caspary Empire, Champion of Khabris.
Demographics
Human makes up the majority, then Demons, Halfling, Half-Elves, very few Dragonborn and Dwarves.
Government
Technically Queen Azena is still the ruling government, but in reality Demon Commander Missandria is fully in control of the entire nobility and she decides what happens in the City.
Defences
Due to the invasion of Demon Lord Krane there has been no more need for a standing army or defenses anymore in the Caspary Empire or the entirety of Arasaka. However, before Krane this city was known for harnessing the power of one of the Regalia within its walls as well as the largest standing army in Baltharos history, the Queen's Knights.
Industry & Trade
Even with Krane invading Arasaka the city's industry and trade actually has gotten better with his guidance and allowance. The fishing of Beamer Lake and 20 massive farms that border the walls of the city all provide the largest agricultural trade in the Empire.
Infrastructure
The city was build over a thousand years ago, but has been rebuilt and reinforced every 200 years to keep up with new innovative building practices. It is up to date with the best stone foundations, roads and tudor style buildings.
Districts
The city is split into two districts, the Golden Wing district and the Silver Feather district. The golden wing was built for the upper echelon of nobility and rich folks. The Silver Feather district was built for everyone else you have the large part of the population that includes, merchants, adventurers, restaurants, market stalls, poor, and travelers.
Assets
This city is massive and is home to two of the world famous Regalia. These artifacts alone make this the richest city in all of Baltharos.
History
Before the invasion of Krane the city was founded by an ambitious young woman Queen Azena Caspary, First of her name, Ruler of Caspary Empire, Champion of Khabris. The city started as a village and rampently grew under the guidance of Azena and her Knights that swore loyalty to her after witnessing her powers as champion of Khabris. She grabbed a chokehold of the new land she found herself in and used the rich soil and flourishing lake to garner a wealth unmatched at the time. Then roughly 1000 years later Krane came to Arasaka and after seeing the potential of this new world, dominated the Empire first.

Tourism
This city is by far the most traveled settlement in the Caspary Empire and is visited often by Demon Lord Krane himself along with other demon captains of other neighboring towns and settlements for trade.
Geography
The city is nestled right next to the Kanterdong Mountain range as well as Beamer Lake, the largest lake in the world. These two natural resources provide the Capital city of Eldermere vast access to natural resources they use for trade and to live.
Climate
Eternal night keeps the climate cool with the occasional rain and snow in the winter months.
Natural Resources
There are 20 different farms that surround the massive walls. Ever since Krane placed a curse on Arasaka for eternal night these farms have had to be replaced by specific crops that only grow from moonlight. However, many cleaver druids have found ways to grow typical crops under moonlight, changing their flavor and chemical makeup. The soil is very fertile due to Beamer Lake, this massive lake is a result of the large mountain range runoff that feeds into it. The fish and other critters are fished, eaten, bought and sold.
