Olpoln

Olpoln is a minor port city on the Eastern side of Valencia within the watchful gaze of the Autumn spire, at least in theory. Olpoln is a cramped slightly industrial city that use to be known for building small navel ships for the war, after the war however there was a ripple of pain felt in Olpoln as the City’s core trade was cut short and the investments from those who built the city began to crumble as the weight of this city began to catch up with it, no longer could they survive on fish and bread, and so the city’s elite where victimised for there incompetence of planning for the future and ultimately were overthrown by the people of Olpoln giving power back to those people. With this take over Olpoln still thrives, if not slowly, and behind closed doors the real money bleeds into the city, keeping it alive and ultimately hidden from the spires ever watchful gaze.

Majority human except as the old have moved away the new residents are from all walks of life, people from exhautic lands yet explored, tieflings, dragonborn, Orcs, Tabaxi, Aasimar, Genasi, Kenku, Lizardfolk & Tritons. All people come and go from the shipyards and all are welcome within the Olpoln boarders
