Eversail - acranbury/zemia-campaign GitHub Wiki

Eversail is a large port city on the continent of Drakon. Most trade and shipping routes to and from Zhestok come through Eversail before continuing to their destination.

The first human explorers settled Eversail because of its natural harbour, which provides shelter from storms and high winds. The Harbour Island provides an adequate storm break, and is an ideal location for its lighthouse.

The Guild Council is the ruling authority in Eversail. Each of the five guilds has a permanent seat on the council, along with the high priest from the Church of Isten and from the Temple of Anya. The council appoints one of their members to be Head of Council, who in turn appoints an advisor to also sit on the council. This seat is highly contended for in the city, with much gold being spent on bribes and favours for council members seen as favourites for the Head position. New Heads tend to appoint members of the major Human houses, since the houses are very free with their coin.

Temperate, wet, low temperature variance between seasons. Alright for farming, excellent fishing stocks.

Trading centre of Zemia, all trade routes from Dhemet and Khoret come through the city. Overland routes to the north and over the mountains to South Harbour also exist.

Almost any item from anywhere can be found in Eversail, but this is not the place to come for good prices. Cost of living is high, outside of the slums and shanty town, and the markets are opulent. Expect to find excellent bargainers who have been plying their trade for years.

Eversail has long been the most populous city on the continent, with almost 50,000 residents (including the shanty town).

Eversail is one of the most diverse cities on Drakon, with only 60% of the walled city’s population being pure Human. If the shanty town outside the walls is included, that number shrinks to 30%.

The first settlers were welcomed with open arms by the indigenous population, and much of the Half Elven population lives in Eversail. Where in other cities Half Elves are shunned by both Humans and Elves, here they are often found in positions of influence.
