Sargava
Government
Sargava is ruled by a Colonial Baron as it has been since it's inception. However, as it has increased in size and become more independant, that role is complemented by the castellan and several magisters who vie for power with the baron.
Defences
Sargava's interior still holds the old pallisade of the original colony but it's modern defense are more impressive. A 20ft high masonry wall surrounds the exterior of the town with two watch towers located to the North and South. The wall and towers are manned by the local malitia suplemented with the castellans forces.
Industry & Trade
The lifeblood of Sargava flows from The Interior. The locals harvest the dangeroud spoils of the surrounds while daring and foolhardy parties of adventerures and explorers bring trade to the beligured colony. The rare spices and herbs that can be harvest from the jungles near the settlment fetch high prices in the markets across the Quarric Ocean.
Guilds and Factions
Several factions vie for control of the trade that flows in and out of Sargava and the surrounding lands.
Rivermen's Guild
For any wishing to leave the relative safety of Sargava behind and make their way into the Interior, there are two choices; go on foot and die a certainly gruesome death or hire a Riverman and most likely live out the week. The Riverman's Guild is a loose coalition of guides, trappers, and explorers who hire themselves out to the uninitiated and the wise alike.Gold Crown Shipping and Mining Company
