Schilderheim
Schilderheim is an important market town in Reikland, located at the confluence of the River Reik and the River Schilder. Schilderheim is currently suffering a bout of urban unrest. Although it is one of the Reikland's most important centers of trade, Schilderheim's ambitious townsmen look upon the metropoles of Altdorf and Marienburg with envy. The local Guild (Sons of the River), seeking a slice of the pie, raised their fees. However, this move was highly unpopular with the Reikland nobility and resulted in a military occupation in the year 1490, led by the The Paranormal Division.
Demographics
As cities have become more and more important to the Empire, a new class of citizen has emerged: the Townsman. They clawed their way up from the peasantry and made new lives for themselves in the cities. Now they are the glue that holds urban society together. They are neither as despised as the peasantry nor as exalted as the nobility. While they suffer the most from plague, living in tightly packed neighborhoods as they do, they would not leave the city for a life of hard toil in the country. In their minds, cities breed opportunity, not just disease.
