Baelryn City
Baelryn city is the last standing bastion for civilization as all other cities and settlements have been overrun by a rapidly expanding dark nature. Baelryn consists of 6 main districts and a market and courtyard in the center. Starting from the Eastern section and rotating around counter-clockwise, 5 districts lay out the various classes within the city from the slums in the "EastGate" to the nobles and lords in the "Lord's Garden" district.
The city is cramped and hungry. The mass influx of people trying to get away from the expanding nature has packed the lower classes to the point of breaking. Middle-class and lower live near poverty with people everywhere you look and many people being forced to live in alleyways or in the gutter.

Government
Council of Races
The Council of Races is the ruling body that was established as the world began to crumble. A representative for each race present at the time was chosen to try and give racial representation equal to their population. While the council was founded with appropriate leaders selected, not each leader had the same power as the others. Leaders to the more fair races which originally controlled the city (Human, Elf and Dwarf) became more powerful than the rest acting as the real leaders while the rest became figure heads to appease their corresponding race. These lesser leaders were forced into submission under the threat of their race being exiled from the city to fight on their own with no defenses against the darkening world.Leaders
Defences
The city is surrounded by a tall stone wall about 3 feet thick with a small wooden walkway which protrudes from the inside edge of the wall.
History
Baelryn was once a rather unremarkable city, it was a stop while crossing the plains but not much more than that. Ever since the black sun arrived though people have been running West in an attempt to get away from the spreading darkness. Now Baelryn is the last standing settlement, containing nearly all of the remaining civilized races.
Geography
Baelryn sits in the middle of the plains. It is possible to see for miles because of the flat area. Far to the south the edge of a forest can be seen.
Natural Resources
Baelryn once had large swathes of land from which it grew various crops. Since the arrival of the Black Sun and the growing darkness, the fields were forcibly abandoned as it became to dangerous to leave the city walls.
