Neverwinter
Welcome to Neverwinter, the formidable bastion on the eastern frontier of the Reborn Kingdom of Avocath. Renowned for its strategic importance, Neverwinter stands as a steadfast guardian against the Orc Raiders that threaten from the seas to the east. The city's robust defenses are matched by its rich veins of ore—both magical and mundane—which serve as a vital resource for the entire kingdom.
Governed by Duke Sergio, a figure both respected and revered for his justice and stern governance, Neverwinter is a place where order and discipline are as solid as the city walls themselves. Duke Sergio's leadership has fostered a strong sense of loyalty and pride among the inhabitants, who see him as a bulwark not only against external threats but also as a keystone of fairness and order within the city’s bustling markets and busy streets.
The city is also home to the Neverwinter Knights, a distinguished branch of the Avocan Military. These elite soldiers are specially trained to protect the city and its surrounding areas from any invasion or threat. Their presence is a comforting sight to the locals and a warning to all who would dare threaten the peace of Neverwinter.
Neverwinter's surrounding towns and villages thrive under its protection, contributing to the city's economy through mining and the processing of ores. The synergy between the city and its hinterlands is a testament to Neverwinter's importance as a center of industry and defense. Here, amidst the clang of forges and the march of patrolling knights, the pulse of Avocath’s eastern might beats strongest.
Whether you come to gaze upon the sturdy ramparts, trade in its dynamic markets, or study the diverse applications of its magical ores, Neverwinter promises a glimpse into the heart of a city that is as industrious as it is resilient.
Adventurer's in the City
In the city of Neverwinter, the arrival of adventurers is met with both anticipation and careful scrutiny. Due to past incidents and disturbances caused by unruly elements within the adventuring community, the city has implemented strict regulations to ensure the safety and order of its citizens. At each of the city gates, sophisticated Adventurer's Guild coin detectors are installed, a testament to Neverwinter's commitment to maintaining control and monitoring those who wish to enter.
Upon arrival, all adventurers are required to register with the gate guards—a process that has become as routine as it is necessary. This registration includes not only the presentation of the Adventurer's Guild coin but also a detailed declaration of each adventurer's weapons of choice and any magical abilities they possess. The guards are thorough, recording this information in the city’s ledger, thereby allowing the city authorities to maintain a level of preparedness should any disturbances arise.
This protocol not only helps in keeping track of the adventurers within the city walls but also serves as a deterrent to those who may wish to disrupt the hard-won peace of Neverwinter. While some may view these precautions as onerous, they are a small price to pay for access to the city’s bustling markets, lucrative contracts, and the rich veins of magical and mundane ores that lie beneath it.
Adventurers who respect these rules find Neverwinter a city of immense opportunities, guarded by the vigilant Neverwinter Knights and governed by the just yet stern hand of Duke Sergio. Here, amidst the echoes of hammers on anvils and the occasional clash of swords from training grounds, adventurers can carve out their own legends, so long as they abide by the city's stringent regulations.
