Lochos

Lochos is the capital of it's faction and home to the tyrant and his government.As such its defences are unrivaled thanks to several factors: the sheer amount of resources devoted to its construction not the least important but the subtlety of it's design and difficulties of its location and climate make it near impregnable.

Demographics

The population is divided into three groups: the gubernamental personnel,the military and their contractors and the civilians.The first group has their own housing area for their safety and the tyrants control(this is vehemently denied of course).The military has their main garrisons spread across the city-fortress but also possesses main mustering grounds outside the city in order to carry out the constant drills and a central keep.Their contractors are grouped into their own district fortified similarly as the gubernamental one as it represents a valuable asset.The civilians are mostly traders or farmers with larger fields.They are afforded the fastest entry and exit but one of the most exposed positions and their housing areas will be turned into ambushes and killzones in case of a breach.

Government

As the capital of its state its primarily a military and gubernamental asset as most of the population inhabits in the town below called Urysea.The civilians that do inhabit have heightened taxes as to maximize economic power during wartime and balance the lack of economic competition.

Defences

3 walls with sectioned entrances killzones traps vantage points a large garrison spread across the terraced wall sections, sally points ballistae primitive tank traps moats

Industry & Trade

Lochos is the center of military power and this power needs maintenance and sustenance.Food is delegated to other governorships but metalworking and craftsmanship is prevalent in Lochos as evidenced by its guilds, forges and craftsmen.These last produce the most of the trade in Lochos however Lochos is more of a fortress than a city so it's inhabitants are mostly not reliant on anything other than the government.

Infrastructure

Lochos' is the greatest piece of infrastructure it's order has created yet.With the purpose of protecting it's nations leadership and housing main industry and military installations.A sewer and hydraulic system was one of the first designed pieces of lochos then came the food stores and then the rest of infrastructure conformed to the military defence designs.Housing and industry are designed around the walls,sally ports,towers,garrisons,hardpoints and killzones.The industry here is based around metalworking and craftsmanship so forges and workshops form the industry.

Guilds and Factions

The training and forging guilds have embassies and are supervised here while the construction guild is based here along with the syntechnia tactica(strategy guild).

Architecture

This settlements architecture is angular and practical built in or into stone with statues and historical murals carved into the inner walls.However civilian buildings are purposely built with strong foundations and cheap exteriors since they are built with siege in mind as with so much else in this society.

Geography

The fortress wraps around the mountain and is built into it certain sections while a stream descencends through the mountain and is directed into stores in case of sieges.

Natural Resources

Caves and quarries can be found around the surrounding area but has been stripped of all that can be used in siege against it such as lumber from forests.
