Sitalik
At the edge of Wescovia's far northwest, Sitalik gleams like a beacon of wealth and wonder. Here, exotic goods mingle with whispered secrets, and every ship that docks carries the promise of gold.
Demographics
Predominantly made up of silver dragonborn and goliaths, the population also has significant minority communities of elves and halflings from Absiterra and Septentri.
Government
Ruled by a Lord Mayor appointed directly by the King, reflecting its strategic importance, Sitalik is allowed to be a little more autonomous than the rest of the kingdom, given its remote location.
Defences
Because of its remote location, and also because it is the site of several foreign embassies and consulates, Sitalik is the most well-protected port city in Wescovia. Since reinforcements would take a very long time from even the next closest settlement, the city has the most Wescovian militia protecting it of any city in the kingdom, save perhaps Carleberg and Rochley.
Industry & Trade
Center of luxury imports, rare goods, and diplomatic trade. Receives ships from both Absiterra and Septentri’s southern coast.
Guilds and Factions
Jewelers’ Guild, Explorers' Society, Mariners' Brotherhood. Sitalik is also home to small embassies for some Septentrian nations.
History
Originally a naval fortress turned trade port. It played a key role in Wescovia’s maritime dominance.
Tourism
Wealthy tourists visit for the Gilded Market, a seasonal event where rare spices, silk, art, and enchanted trinkets are auctioned.
