Nìmloth Settlement in Toriel | World Anvil

Nìmloth

Nìmloth is the northmost elven city within Tana's Empire. Founded on the ruins of an ancient elven city in 585 AD. The city is located in the northern part of the Elven Forest and is divided into the Rough, built on the forest floor, and the Shrouds, built as a series of treehouses.
 

Description

The city is built at the northern edge of the Elven Forest, partially on the boreal forest floor and partially in a massive network of treehouses connected by elevated bridges and winding stairways. Nìmloth is protected by a tall wooden wall that surrounds the city.
 

The Rough

The Rough, or Talan in Elvish, is the ground level of Nìmloth. As it often incorporates the trees of the surrounding forest, it is vaguely octogonal in shape. The streets are made of smooth stones set in packed earth and enchanted to warm the pathways and melt the frequent snow. Ground-level structures, which include large tutoring halls, are tucked between rocks and the large trees. Nearly all of them are built from pine and other local timber and incorporating "designs resembling a bowed arch rising to an apex".

The Shrouds

The Shrouds, or Halya in Elvish, are the staircases that spiral around and within trees, leading to the treehouse level in the forest canopy.
 

Society

The elves of Nìmloth are a close-knit community, having become so in the difficult years spent trying to rebuild their town in the cold climate of northen region.
 

Law

The city boasts a military forces: the Soldiers of the Qwir. Use the Guard Arrival Times table to determine how long it takes for guards to arrive at a location after a crime or similar incident is reported.
 

 

Demographics

Elves from Nìmloth are described as usually having fairer complexions in comparison to those of Megima.
