Overview
Iwíhgqidjig Se was founded durring the late 15th century in winter of the year 1383, by Glkdshe Tibe Nash. The establishment of Iwíhgqidjig Se was only bairly constructed. The sheer number of problems with its founding were enough to make several of the backers funding Iwíhgqidjig Se's construction back out of the project. Glkdshe Tibe Nash pushed on reguardles, and Iwíhgqidjig Se was finished, but starts off as a terible place to live.
Iwíhgqidjig Se was built using the conventions of Tauric durring the late 15th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Iwíhgqidjig Se 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.
Iwíhgqidjig Se is buildings are grouped arround an odd layout of spacious flagstone streets, which seems to be based on an overlapping squair patern such that there are small squares at the cornor of every bigger square. Sometimes buildings exist in the smaller squaires, other times they are open spaces, or occupied by temporary structures. The town rests behind the absurdity that is a thick, timber braced, wall made of clay bricks. While visualy impressive and certainly an astetic, Iwíhgqidjig Se's wall provides no actual defence against siege equipment due to the choice of its cosntruction materials. Even nonexperts can tell the town is trying to impress rather than defend with its walls, towers, and gatehouses. Though admittedly, they do look nice... To primitive tribals who have never seen fortifications before. Astonishigly, the political statment focused walls are in pristine condishion, as if they had just been finished before you laied eyes upon them.
