Catwalk Corridors

Due to the flooded streets that are often impassable without a boat, the more dexterous residents of the Puddles have established a network of rooftop bridges and precarious walkways to navigate the district. Younger residents and the recent goblin population in particular utilize these skyways and can be seen vaulting old chimneys and sliding along collapsed walls in acrobatic races to their destinations. Out of reach of the sluggish residents trudging through the water below, these rooftop runners tease and taunt the “sloggers” for trying to traverse the flooded streets on foot.
The skill needed to swiftly traverse this uneven terrain quickly became a competitive sport for many young residents, and the fastest were employed to carry messages or small parcels through the district. The most famous of these is a lithe young man named Virgil, who is Haigen Topkick’s personal runner and notoriously fast at racing over rooftops in several districts.
The makeshift planks and broken railings are not always a reliable means of transport, and a rooftop scuffle often sends a combatant tumbling to the soggy ground below. Rooftop hostilities have become more common as runners become aligned with competing factions.
