Gotelm

The city hidden in the fog, a place of constant darkness, only truly illuminated by the lights from within the buildings of the once proud trade hub. Once it was the easiest path for trade to reach the empire, before the creation of the tunnels through the skyscrapers. Now, while it has not turned to ruin, the once beautiful city has become much darker. Despite this, its people are wide and diverse in mind and in culture, with the fog doing little to dampen their mood, in perhaps a very eerie way. Some speak of rumors of that there are strange creatures walking within the city, hidden by the fog, but few can ever verify the truth of it.

Demographics

Gotelm is a very homogeneous city, with a large part of it being metallic draken, making up a overwhelming majority at 90% of the city, with the rest of it being 7.5% talvarians, and then 2.5% miscellaneous such as dalvarians.

Government

The city is controlled and run primarily by the council of the wise, who help run the city and organize it, along with dealing with petty disputes between groups and religious areas, using representatives of each group to help keep the peace.

Defences

The city has large walls that reach 7 meters high, but much of it has come to ruin due to lack of maintenance, and as such only the main areas such as the gate houses are patrolled and repaired, armed with old ballistas that protect the walls, with the soldiers being local guards recruited by the council.

Industry & Trade

While the city previously had no industry at all due to its lack of fertile land and natural resources, time has changed as rumors of large mines having been constructed under the city, for strange crystals have been found that work perfect for that of magic. What kind of power and how they work is not known outside the state, but those inside are sure to know a lot.

Infrastructure

The city's infrastructure has come a lot to ruin, while its main roads are still being maintained, other roads are left to ruin and not bothered with, especially the ones leading deeper into the city and the lower income areas.

Guilds and Factions

The biggest faction is of course the council who help control the city, with a lot of other factions, those being the religious groups, vying for power. The only notable guild is that of the occult guild, who keep control over all things occult that happens and grows within thee city.
