Galehaven

"Pretty cool designed city but the propaganda here is pretty over the top."
-Mae Greenbrook 
  The city is comprised of three tiers segmented into districts on the surface level, as well as some underground, called Galehaven Below.   Inner tier:
  • The Docks
Mid tier:
  • Artisans' Ward, located in the south. An upperclass district
  • Traders' Ward, located in the north
Outer tier:
  • Southgate
  • Northgate
  • Palace Wards
The nobility live on plantations in the outer tier. They tend to wear green or red clothing with embroidered family crests and stupid hats but wear muted jewellery and even their servants are well dressed.

Government

The city is nominally run by Rynem, the Grand High Protector, who holds the position of Lord Protector of Galehaven, but the city is generally run by the head of the Galehaven City Watch.

Defences

A large stone wall surrounds the city.

Infrastructure

A latticework of wires allow mechanical cargo haulers to travel above the water at clifftop height and lower to collect cargo from boats, as well as passengers to the towering Temple of Gond upon an island in the centre of the harbour.

Guilds and Factions

Two major organisations have their base of operations in Galehaven:

History

Magic is not allowed in Galehaven and is considered to be the domain of Dunaren by The Resistance as the ruler had an incident with a mage.

Architecture

The architecture of the city is predominantly bright coloured mediteranean mud brick style buildings. The main rich estates sit in the north and southeast on plantation on the clifftop.

Geography

Galehaven is a city built into the steps of The Crags above a natural harbour out to the Empty Sea, but on cliffs some 400ft above the water.    The city has a layout of concentric semi-circles around the horseshoe shaped harbour, with some of the city lying underground. The road to the city zig-zags up the mountain, but there are many secret alternative entrances.
