Pran

Founded: 235 GM Population: 76,000 Purpose: Import/Export Current Ruler: Local Business Owners / Coal Fell Court Pran was founded by the Irragin Gnomes upon the discovery of Veritas early in the Great Migration Era. Finding its heat, flora, and fauna intolerable, Pran became a point of exploration, not a serious expedition for resources. Nevertheless, a small population settled in the colony, coexisting with all races that sought to explore the heated continent.
Only when the trade winds failed did the city grow in popularity. Connected to Irragin via an undercurrent, Pran also featured the unique property of being extremely close to the underwater waterfall, which made the boundary of the Still Water Ocean. This flow could be harnessed, allowing vessels to move along the coast of Veritas, up to Erast, and around Old Ashton.
City Dynamics Commercialism at its Finest. With almost direct access to Coal Fell via water transit and access to Irragin, Pran has become the primary trading hub for Veritas. Not protected in the same manner as Coal Fell, large corporations and organizations are buying up land for warehouses, turning this small city into an industrial park.
Significant Locations Old Town. The remnants of the original city, this cluster of lakeside abodes is the last semblance of everyday life suffocated on all sides by economic growth. Residents here are torn between working within the industrial parks and maintaining their homeland.
