Towns & Cities

Settlers riding into town.

Towns were the economic and cultural centers, but it was the country that provided the goods, and were the main source of food. In a medieval town, the best properties with the highest rent around the square and the market were owned by wealthy merchants and aristocrats.

Around them lived the craftsmen and artisans, and the poor by the city walls. The townspeoples livelihoods stemmed largely from trading, their craft and profession and similar to modern times, most townfolk bought their food at the market.

Like today, the townsfolk bought their food at the market.

In the 11th century, most settlements were small sized and had a minor population mostly consisting of poor farmers & peasants. Cities in the Flintwhenian region never surpassed the 1.5 thousand marks (Royal Capital).

Towns & Cities

Towns were the economic and cultural centers, but it was the country that provided the goods, especially foodstuffs. In a medieval town, the best properties around the square and the market were owned by rich Councillors and merchants.

Around them lived the craftsmen and artisans, and the poor by the city walls. The townspeople’s livelihoods stemmed largely from the trade, skilled crafts, and many associated professions.

Like today, the townsfolk bought their food at the market.

In the 11th century, most settlements were small sized and had a minor population mostly consisting of poor farmers & peasants. Cities in the Flintwhenian region never surpassed the 1.5 thousand marks (Royal Capital).

Delton

I. Village of Delton

Delton is located in northeastern Flintwhenia. It neighbors Lake Delton and it's ports and it's where the name for the village comes from. The village is very subtle, made out of multiple buildings. There are two barns, one acting as a normal barn whilst the other as a stable. Several huts for housing, a town hall, a small tavern and a podium for speeches.

This particular area has achieved notoriety for being the home of fishers thanks to the openness and ease of the ports that lay across the lake. Relatively the size of the lake also allows for small boats to roam around it's boundaries and access the ports fairly well.

The Barrows

I. the Barrows

The Barrows are a heavily forested region of Flintwhenia. The Barrows comprises the southeastern portion of the map, and is connected to the notorious and foul smelling swamp. The camp is most characterized by its rugged terrain, foul-smelling swamp, giant hills and rocks.

The camp acts as a regional hangout for merchants, thieves, pirates and other multicultural beings. A home, residing all the nasty, gut-wrenching and hideous activities seen no where else. The foundation is made out of a series of docks, cabins, rotten and spoiled housing and a plethora of decaying elements all around.
