Five Copper Mine Towns: Cuivre, Koppar, Ramton, Chakou, & Kupfer (City-States In Chaos Supplement)

From D&D Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search


Throughout the countryside, small towns and hamlets exist. This is the independent wilderness. They are almost exclusively Human and suspicious of strangers. They tend to have wooden walls for protection and closed gates at night. They tend to be self-sufficient without inns but will have bars in general stores.

The independent towns and hamlets are diverse in society toward other races. Fashion in the wilderness is more practical toward warmth and dryness. Although the basic common language is common, the wilderness and the independent towns have a distinctive accent that is only recognizable as a wilderness accent with a Perception DC 10 (with Perception DC 20, know what large area the accent is from, such as a far northern accent, a southeast accent, a plains accent, etc.).

Five Copper Mine Towns: Cuivre, Koppar, Ramton, Chakou, & Kupfer: Each city is heavily dependent on slave labor (multi-race) and connected to a copper mine. Each city is dedicated to the Fire God (Unaligned Major God) [symbol: three vertical wavy lines]. The Fire, also known as Theezini, is charged with providing warmth and light.
