Gë́vv Yāwy Vǖy was built using the conventions of Hobgoblin durring the early 13th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Gë́vv Yāwy Vǖy is no diffrent. The town's buildings feature delicute timber framework hidden behind layer upon layer of finly ground plaster bleached to an almost glossy white sheen, with green clay tiled roofs and decorative brass-leafed trim. Even the smallest, poorest looking structures appear to be expencive thanks to the extreem elegence of the organic shapes and paterns going into their lofty, spire-y, vagly gothic designs. The more well off folks live in identicle homes, save for even shiner trim and a more whimsical appearance to their structures flowing forms.

Gë́vv Yāwy Vǖy is is constructed arround a series of premissive packed earth mainstreets which form overlapping circles, with smaller strait roads linking the circiles to eachother at varrious points. The town resides behind a palisade wall complete with battlments, a moat, and timber gatehouses with drawbridges. Gë́vv Yāwy Vǖy's robustly designed timber walls are suffering from significent damage, so much so that examples can be pointed to no matter which section one might have within their line of site, and most of which render sections inoperable at present.

The town seems to be a den of chaos where tongues are forked and local customs do not exist.
