Addersfield Settlement in Belthuran | World Anvil

Addersfield

Addersfield overlooks the Southeastern portion of Rhyderia at the foothills of the Bladeward Mountains and overlooking Silber Lake. It serves as a bastion against Anrasha raiders, who only rarely travel through the mountains but the fear persists and so the city is ready for any attack on it, at least they believe so.   Addersfield is the destination most exiled dwarves choose to make a home for themselves as it lets them have some taste of home, being able to work in mines, shape stone or metal, and be around other dwarves. The humans by and large are happy to have the expertise of the dwarves who dramatically improved the safety of the mines and quarries where they work.

Demographics

Majority of the population is human, followed by dwarven exilesand half elves, then gnomes, with smaller groups of other races.

Government

The Duke of the Graze Lands rules from Addersfield as the capitol,

Defences

Strong dwarven engineered walls armed with the best defenses human and gnomish minds could create.

Industry & Trade

Within Rhyderia Addersfield provides much of the stone used in wall, bridge, fort, or castle creation. Beyond that and equally, as important Addersfield is where most of Rhyderia's silver supply is mined, the mines of Addersfield stretch deep and far and have yet to be exhausted.

Infrastructure

Stone quarries, silver mines, foundrys, masons, trade districts.

Assets

Stone quarries and vast silver mines

Guilds and Factions

The Crafters Guild Stonemasons SIlversmiths Mage Guild A presence frome ach of the Knightly Orders

Tourism

Addersfield is a tourist destination for several reasons, to observe the union of dwarven and human architecture and the comfortable temperatures almost year-round. For whatever reason, the Graze Lands are in growing season most of the year except for a short but harsh winter.

Architecture

A mixture of gothic arcitecture from the humans with the very art deco style of the dwarves.

Mixing of architecture. Great idea

It made sense to me, and it is hard to argue against dwarven stonework.
