Castle Daggerveil

Castle Daggerveil is the government location set at the top of the city of Daggerveil. The castle is large and rustic, but also ornate and detailed. There are many guards surrounding the Castle, especially after the recent goblin attacks. The Castle is the government center of the entire city, and it also plays a big political role in the world's government and politics, which is located in Emeraldia, a large political safe haven in Terra Ultima. Castle Daggerveil is by far the largest structure in Daggerveil. The leader of Daggerveil is Chumror, the dragonborn/dragonkin. He runs the entirety of the metropolis, often participating in the politics related to Terra Maxia and Terra Ultima. There are many different aspects to running the city, including participating in local events and asking the business owners how they want things run. With the goblin attacks on the rise, Chumror has decided to increase the amount of soldiers protecting the city entrances and the Castle. He has started a mandatory curfew as well. Many people don't like Chumror and the Castle, but that's just how it happens, he was passed the town by his father. The Castle has been there since the beginning of the town, when it was becoming a larger civilization, and not everyone likes that, but it had to happen, there needs to be a government center. Terra Ultima runs the entirety of the world practically, governing over all, and not even Daggerveil, which is said to be self governing by Castle Daggerveil, is safe from the governing power of Terra Ultima.

Structure

The organization of Daggerveil is that there are many different businesses and locales in the city, however, it is supposedly independent from the rest of Terra Ultima and it's governing power. Castle Daggerveil is the governing center of the city, the main head to the politics there, the organizing facility of the city.

Public Agenda

The public agenda is that Castle Daggerveil is there to help protect and serve those of the city, however, the Castle manages to accept money from Terra Ultima, and also send help (and sometime create taxes) to towns around Terra Maxia and Terra Minima. So their public face, isn't exactly truthful fully.

Assets

The standard assets for a booming metropolis, countless buildings, horses, stables, bridges, the castle, lots and lots of gold and platinum, troops, weapons and armor galore, etc.

History

The history of Daggerveil starts with a very small settlement in the beginning of the Era of Man. Over the years, more and more people came to the tiny village, eventually setting up shops and such, turning a small town into a small city. People would fight to be leader of the city, eventually causing a war between neighboring parties. Eventually it settled down, and they had a decent leader, which, over the years, would be handed down and the city would grow into a booming metropolis. The city is very old and very exquisite. There was also a large invasion many years ago, this was dubbed "The Battle of Daggerveil," and was documented heavily, as it was almost the downfall of this civilization. There were dozens of Orcs with Minotaurs, an odd combination, but they decimated the town, slaughtering many people. There are no longer people who were alive when it happened, but there are rumors that the townsfolk stood their ground and fought back. It is said that an Ancient White Dragon was summoned and was able to help the townsfolk defend their home. This is all speculation of course, since nobody actually witnessed it, but it is a very strong rumor, often on tapestry's painting a picture of the battle, a white dragon is in the foreground. The Ancient White Dragon's name is known as Myveil, The White One, rumor has it that the dragon's name is how the city got the name Daggerveil. It is unsure if the name existed prior to the battle.
