Overview

Eg Phuschrx Kac was founded durring the late 11th century, by Deltilia Råghurv. The establishment of Eg Phuschrx Kac was plagued by a lack of willing colonists. After attempts to pay people to resettle failed Deltilia Råghurv struck deals with nearby nations and communities to establish Eg Phuschrx Kac as a prison colony.

Eg Phuschrx Kac was built using the conventions of Dwarvern durring the late 11th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Eg Phuschrx Kac is no diffrent. The town's buildings feature waddle and daub construction with good timber frames and a stone foundation protected by thatched or shingled rooves. Most buildings with second floors are built in such a way as to overhang into the streets on the upper floors for more space, as building size seems to be the primary indicator of wealth within the community. Most buildings are not decorated with any integral features, but instead use ivy, flowers, and other natural elements in planters of on trellices to breathe life into the structure they grow upon.

Eg Phuschrx Kac is was constructed arround several restrictive cobblestone mainstreets which cross one another at certain axies, with smaller streets branching off of them to premit acess to the many buildings deeper into the road network. The overall fashion is remenessent of a circulatory system, or other organic construct, and is quite effishent in its design. The town has a defencive wall made from large clay bricks. The wall is constructed to the exact specifications of millitary fortifications, but the nature of its clay brick construction leaves it vulnerable to even outdated siege equipment. That said, the town is well defended against anything short of an army. The town's brittle defences are visibly old, but also obviously maintained semi-regularly. Its likly the local malishia or garrison are tasked with ocasional mantance of the towns defences.

The locals seem to be very much into scholastic pursuits, based on the hushed, murmured conversations you hear at least. Everyone in Eg Phuschrx Kac acts like they have discovered something wondrous, and are worried they will endure some horrible fate so another can take what they’ve discovered for themselves.
