Mountebank
A small village of the Adrisan kingdom, Mountebank is a hilltop town of about 7,000. Walled, fortified, and insular, Mountebank sits atop a rocky hill at the kingdom's southern edge, overlooking the road that leads from the settlements in the south directly into the heart of the kingdom of the Accusers. Most folk in Mountebank shoulder this duty with pride, and are known for their zealous defending of the road upon which their town sits.
Demographics
Most Mountebankers are not particularly wealthy. Miners, stonemasons, and other workers of stone are the most common citizens here.
Government
The town is ruled by a local magistrate and a small complement of Thunder Legionnaires.
Defences
The outer walls of Mountebank are heavily fortified with murder-holes, clever alchemical devices, and more. The towers that line the walls afford the local legionnaires a near-perfect view of the surrounding area.
Infrastructure
The roads within the sturdy walls of Mountebank are, nearly without exception, stairs. The hilltop town was not built on anything resembling even ground, and the local stonecutters reflect this, with mason yards built high rather than wide.
Assets
Mountebank is Adrisa's main source of high-quality building stone.
