Hueport

Noble District

  The Noble district serves as the cities center, and is the highest class of the three districts by a fair margin. It sits on the higher ground ridge between the coast and the river, and it's the only part of the city with walls.

Castle Hue

The seat of Count Hue's power is this mid-sized castle. It's relatively squat with 5 towers, but being filled with more and more luxuries with every passing year.  

Reliquary Temple

The Reliquary temple is a small tower stronghold about a block and a half away from Castle Hue. It's used by all the local churches, as well as several faiths without churches in the city, to store holy artifacts. It is guarded by a rotating shift of skilled priests, clerics, and paladins of various the various faiths with artifacts within. It is managed Melidon the Old a high elven cleric of Oghma. He is an expert on religious lore, and very well versed in lore of all sorts. He tutors some of the children of Count Hue and Baron Thornton to help support the reliquary.  

City Guard Garrison

All the military might Hueport can muster is found here, offering the best protection to the various merchants and nobles that call the Noble District home. the Captain of teh Guard is a wizard named Captain Tostig Wellemere. He is an ex-adventurer who once worked with Quellan Ysold the Mighty, and they remain good friends to this day. He runs the guard efficiently and effectively, and has kept the city guard largely honest - to the eternal dismay of the Violet Edge Thieves' Guild.   Joe the guard is one of the guards stationed there, and one of the very few who do work with the thieves' guild.  

Temple of Milil

The temple of Milil is run by High Priest Clifton Brick, a capable and kind man who enjoys his work. The temple is a small, colorfully hand decorated wooden structure; all in beautiful swirls of blues, greens, and purples. The inside is similarly decorated, and most of the furnishings are artistic pieces crafted and donated by the faithful. The following in Hueport isn't large enough to keep the temple rich, but they on modestly popular shows and concerts all the same. A fairy dragon named Sphex took up residence there a few years ago, and is greatly beloved by the staff and faithful alike.  

The Sun Cafe

A fancy upscale cafe and restaurant the caters to the upper class residents of the noble district.  

Red's Magic and Sundries

A well stocked trade shop for magic items, Red's is a two storey building of finely carved stone with a tiled mosaic floor. It's well lit by glowing gemstones inset in the ceiling. The shop is tended by "Red", a young woman whose real name is Isnag Skulidotr, and her brown monkey familiar named Hura. Hura runs to grab things from the shelves, and helps count the money for each sale.  

Port District

The port district is ruled by Baron Esper, one of the nobles beneath Count Hue. Baron Esper is a straightforward military man, a knight raised to Baronhood via his excellent service in the last war with the elves. Her rules as he lives, simply and directly. He has little patience for the minutia of trade deals and long negotiations, so he continues ot live in the tower he held as a knight, on the very eastern edge of Hueport. He delegates most of his economic responsibilities to Dockmaster Jayce Cooper, giving the traders and dock managers more freedom to act as they see fit, but done little to alleviate the suffering of the many poor in his district. He also employs Court Wizard Bevom Shorsk as his primary aide and protector against magical threats.

The Dockyard

Run by Dockmaster Jayce Cooper, the dockyard is shorthand for the area consisting of the docks themselves, the many trade offices associated with managing the trade and organization of the docks, and the many of the warehouses full of goods for trade. It's the beating economic heart of Hueport, and keeps the dockmaster and his team very busy to keep it running smoothly.  

Temple of Waukeen

The temple of Waukeen is run by High Priest Donal Fourey and his many assistants, including assistant accountant Acolyte Jacob. The temple is rather plain and simple by Waukeen's standards, but positively resplendent by any normal standard. It's bright facade of beaten copper and gold filigree gives way to a bustling hall of trade and business inside. Many larger trade deals between guilds take place in its halls, and they have a good working relationship with the Dockyard. The temple funuctions as a bank for those needing a safe place to stash their coin as well.  

Twin Axes Hunter's Guild

The Local Hunter's guild is run by Master Hunter Quellan Ysold the Mighty, a half elf of some renown and ex-adventurer. The guild hall is a simply, sturdy building of wood and stone, without much fanfare to it save for the crossed axes sign out front. They mostly function by organizing the local hunters and trappers, and serve as an intermediary to whom they can sell their products. They then deal with the trade guilds on a much larger scale, and can thus negotiate a better price for all the hunters together. On the side however, they also take and manage requests for the hunting/harvesting of more dangerous or magical beasts and monsters. The front desk is run by a friendly and very skilled tiefling named Iados

The Lonely Unicorn

Found in the slums on the western side of the docks, this shitty in is a sprawling single storey building with roughly hewn tables and benches. The furniture is often cracked, broken, or drenched in stale beer. Accommodations consist of a single room with several wooden cots and a hammocks. The inkeeper is a tough-as-nails old woman named Wiseria. The basement used to be a cellar, but is currently being rented out by the Rainbow Unicorns mercenary group. It's frequented by all sorts of shady sailors and ne'er-do-wells, and sometimes the simple but unassailable goliath Dogan  

The Ruby Helm

A modest inn located in the nicer area of the port district. It is a small half-timbered building with a reinforced wooden door and simple wooden tables and benches and a fake dragon skull hanging above the hearth. It's accomodations include a few small rooms with simple beds. The inkeeper is a pleasant male elf named Ethon

River District

The River District is ruled by Baron Thornton, a half-elf with old ties to the land. His is an old and noble house, but in the aftermath of the war with the high elves, his half elven heritage has led to a fair bit of mistrust and poor treatment from some of the citizenry. The fact that much of this distrust is sown in part by the thieves' guild to weaken his power in the district is beside the point.  

Violet Edge thieves' guild

The thieves' guild in hueport, the Violet Edge Thieves' Guild, is stationed here. they're run by Asher Bilige, a plain looking and forgettable human, and the mastermind in control of Hueport's underworld. The thieves' guild is known to take orders from Count Hue from time to time, but do as much as they can get away with otherwise. They're full of interesting characters, including Vinny the Fence, a smooth talking crook who runs a general store as a front from criminal operations.  

Temple of Gond

Most of the city's crafstmen live in the river district, and the temple to their patron God is here as well. It's a small stone building with 1 priest and 2 acolytes, but they recently took in a troupe of 6 azer who are producing some excellent creations in exchange for their accomodation. Priest Tristan Duraina is a humble human man, formerly a mason, who built the temple with his own hand and dedicated himself to it's service. His two acolytes are Guna the Dwarf, who felt a calling to help establish the temple here and has been working on her stonecarving skills; and Leta Gonwood, whose parents both died in the war. Tristan took her in, and has been her adoptive father ever since.    

The River Docks

  The river docks are a smaller, less profitable mirror to the Dockyard in the Port District. They're run by a man named Garth Hattern. He can't stand Dockmaster Jayce Cooper, and is affiliated with a competing merchants guild. This rivalry has hurt his wealth and standing, but the docks still function relatively well. He can't afford to oppose Jayce in any real way, but is savvy enough to keep himself relevant in the marketplace, and fight back the thieves' guild with the help of some of the city guard.  

The Big Hammer Carpenters

The big Hammer is a local carpentry workshop that does all sorts of general work. Run by a tall, thin man named Tanner.  

The Burning Forge Blacksmith

One of the several smithies in Hueport, he does a lot of the arming and armoring for the Hueport guard and garrison. Grobnik the Gruff, a garbled voice man, runs it.
