Trivantium

One of the largest cities in the known world, the city of Trivantium was built in the Trivan basin at the covergence of the Dovi and Sowfall rivers. As the settlement slower grew in size and power, the Alceuden canal was extended to connect to the city.

The city was one of many that fell to Farrud Thronehealer's conquests and was for years part of the Orc Empire until a folk hero named Freya led a rebellion that threw the Orcs out of the city.

Political power in the city is held by the guilds, each of which elect guild masters to act as representives for their interests in the low and high councils. The high council is made up of the four most powerful guilds in the city; until recently this had for a long time been the Smith's Guild, the Mason's Guild, the Brewer's Guild and the Arcanist's Guild. However, due to unforunate events, the Smith's Guild has recently lost much of its power.

Each guild sponsers it own private security force and it is these forces that act as both the guards and army for the city. The largest of these forces is the Stonefaces, sponsered by the Mason's Guild.

Templeway
Templeway is the oldest district of the city, built in the centre of the city and along the banks of the converging rivers. It is where all the temples are built. These temples are exempt from strict architectual rules that other buildings are required to follow. The oldest of the building is the Mother’s Temple; a large tower that has large openings to outside to allow ravens to fly inside and roost there. The only other thing inside is a statue of the Mother; representing her as a pregnant woman, naked but for a cloak of raven feathers and a rarely used mechanical lift that decends to the old catacombs and true temple of The Mother beneath the city.
