Ashville

Town: Ashville.
Ruler: Lord Greg Arious.
Type: Industrious.
History: Ashville is notoriously popular. It is not only one of the largest cities that Terrenus has to offer, it is often citen as the most "industrious" as well. This free-market capitalism, embedded in Terrenus's economic climate, allows for technical and creative innovations to flourish rampantly. For a price, but for a fair one.

Ashville's aristocratic population outnumbers the bourgeois but this class, whether in an effort to imitate Lord Greg Arious or to curry favor or even as a result of reforms put into effect by Lord Arious, follow closely his example of philanthropism and are generous to one another and to the less fortunate.

Greg Arious himself is a flamboyant philanthropist whose nearly perfect life started by being born to two wealthy parents that truly loved one another and who were renown for their wisdom. Gregory alleges that it was their love that cultivated such a wisdom but always manages to say it with a wink of a smile that makes one think otherwise without any direct involvement from Gregory.

Lord Arious, having grown in so judicious a home, grew into a man with calm and gentle demeanor, generosity in droves, and an eye as scrutinizing in matters of business as in matters of people.

Population: Culturally diverse with a predominance of gnomes, humans, halflings, dragonborn, and the occasional civilized Deathclaw.

Watchmen
-- 20,000 Guards, trained by the military and assigned from all across Terrenus.
-- 20,000 local police. The local police are a structured militia, for all intents and purposes. Since they are made up primarily of the citizens, as opposed to having been assigned by the military, the police are more likely to be corrupt.
-- 15 Niveus agents. The Niveus are Ashville City's elite guards, serving directly beneath Jett Cr'Ysiander. Discernible from your average guard by their ivory armor and alabaster cloth, these warriors wield a wide variety of powerful magics in tandem with their impressive weapon-play. To maximize their efficiency in combat, the Niveus operate in units of three, though they often intervene in certain situations by themselves. Engaging these individuals, especially when they are together, is highly ill-advised.
-- PeaceKeeper: Jett Cr'Ysiander

Hotspots
1. Ruler's house.

2. The Goodly Tavern & Inn. This is the default tavern and inn, acting as the generic meeting spot between characters whose players are too lazy or timid to make up their own.

3. The Mill is the large building in the middle of the picture. It is through the Mill that most of Terrenus's precious ores and minerals are processed and refined. The Mill itself is a heavily guarded and extremely secretive compound. No one is allowed inside the deeper parts of the massive construct without proper authorization. The Mill is where a character can find the highest variety, highest quality, and cheapest base materials.
