The Smoke Stacks
Monolithic towers reach into the clouds and beyond, billowing a constant stream of black, noxious smoke that blocks out the sun. Below the black, thousands of blacksmiths, metallurgists, labourers and cart drivers work day and night to turn the Karbon billets produced in the Foundry District into weapons and armour for the Karbonites and Ducal Legion.
On the ground level, the Smoke Stacks are constantly filled with the din of people working metal, the most notable are the various gear forges and golem foundries that make the goliath constructs that help build the city and enforce its laws.

Description
The Smoke Stacks hold the majority of the city’s smithies due to its convenient location to Karbon's Wharf which gives it access to materials coming in and can ship end products out. Almost all the smithies are uniform in appearance, designed by the late Gustav Von Karbon; great, rectangular brick buildings with doors large enough to sail a ship through. The most iconic detail is the pair of large chimneys on each one of these buildings, built so tall as to avoid any of the toxic fumes encroaching through the windows of the nobility east of the district.On the ground level, the Smoke Stacks are constantly filled with the din of people working metal, the most notable are the various gear forges and golem foundries that make the goliath constructs that help build the city and enforce its laws.
Demographic
Majority Influence
During the war with Karlogad, the Dukedoms of Albion needed to expand their manufacturing output dramatically, so the previous land owners around the Smoke Stacks were ‘encouraged’ to sell their lands to the Karbonite faith. Even after the war, the Karbonites still have complete control over the area. Very much like the foundry district, they’re allowed to run things as they see fit, as long as they continue to supply the Ducal Legion with weapons and armour.Services
Despite the constant black fog that sinks down from the towers, the Smoke Stacks is a mecca for smiths and engineers. If someone needs a smith, the Smoke Stacks is the best place in the city for large or complex items.Notable Locations
