City of Loman Dur
Loman Dur is the largest city and the baronial seat of the Barony of Loman Dur. It is ruled by Baron Lomain am Lomanni. It has a population of just under 10,000 people, and is a busy sea port and shipbuilding center. The city is administered by a Mayor and a Briar is appointed to see to defense and security, and the Harbor is managed by the Harbor Master.
Demographics
60% Human, 30% Halfling, 8% Gnome and 2% Dwarf.
Government
Loman Dur is the seat of the barony, the seat of the Briary of Skye, and a large community in itself. Because of this, there are three distinct governing bodies: the Baron, the Briar, and the Mayor.
Defences
Two Companies of Foot are stationed within the city walls, and a full Company of Lancers is available to patrol the roads and open approaches to the city from the interior. There are 4 fully-manned coastal hulks fully armed and ready to defend against attacks from the sea.
Industry & Trade
Seafood and shipbuilding are the largest industries in the city, followed very closely by cargo loading and unloading. Loam Dur is a busy port, with dozens of ships coming and going every week.
Infrastructure
The city's walls are nearly complete, and the four gate towers are all finished and manned at all times. A new keep is being built within the harbor, as the current castle (Baron's Keep) is nearly a hundred years old and is entirely too small. Roads are paved, buildings are of stone and brick, roofs are mostly slate or tile. Two huge breakwaters extend into the sea to increase the available harbor space, and road improvements are ongoing from all the gates of the city.
History
People have lived and worked at Loman Dur for hundreds of years, but to see the city today, one would think it was brand new. It is located at the mouth of the rather narrow but deep River Skye, and it is this deep water harbor that gives Loman Dur its advantage.
