Nami Village (na-MEH)

Written by ajamie

"This land is as unforgiving as it is cold. Lucky for you, the people are not the same."  
― Na'thandal, the Glassblade.
  A cozy fishing village located within the Frost Territories, near the border by Batun. There is a small dock located on the adjacent sand-and-snow beaches, fifteen feet below the northern cliff. The docks are built to house roughly a dozen ships, most of which are fishing vessels or ships carrying supplies and travelers between the village and nearby villages, particularly Yoichinoko, which is often flocked by adventurers.  

Law and Crime

Crime in Nami is rare, as there is little wealth and cooperation is crucial for survival. When crime does occur, it is typically minor, out of desperation, and punished at the discretion of the appointed leader.

Demographics

Nami Village has a population of 690, 61% of which was Half-Elves, 32% Dwarves, 3% Gnomes, and 4% other races. Most of the population is armed and armored.

Government

Nami Village is led and governed by Elro Aldataur, a neutral-good aligned male Half-Elven/Half-Orc ranger and the village's founder and appointed leader. He is assisted by those he trusts and to whom he has delegated individual responsibilities. Aldataur, who was appointed as the village's leader near its creation, oversaw the village's expansion and protection.   Aldataur has sixty to ninety Glassblades under his command. One of the primary responsibilities of these Glassblades is to protect the townsfolk against monsters who wander too close to the village. Some civilians are also willing to take up arms in defense of the city if necessary. One of the Glassblades' quarters and training areas is called the Glassblade Commons.

Defences

Aldataur has sixty to ninety Glassblades under his command. One of the primary responsibilities of these Glassblades is to protect the townsfolk against monsters who wander too close to the village. Some civilians are also willing to take up arms in defense of the city if necessary. One of the Glassblades' quarters and training areas is called the Glassblade Commons.   Defense structures include four watchtowers and a ten-foot-tall enclosure made of sharpened logs.

Industry & Trade

Basic supplies are tradable and buyable at small inns and supply shacks. The people of Nami are ice fishers, trappers, and hunters, returning in small caravans to neighboring villages to sell wares and restock supplies. The Clans of Ichi, a collection of rival criminal families, occasionally send agents, like Tulgi Lutan, to Nami to seek out more information about the ruins near Yoichinoko.

Geography

Nami is a very rustic village in a climate that is wintry year-round. The village is composed of over a hundred small buildings. It is too small to have split into separate neighborhoods, so the layout of the town is somewhat haphazard, consisting of a large roughly circular main road and smaller streets and alleys breaking up the center. The narrow streets are muddy and slushy with piles of snow pushed to the edges against the wooden buildings.
