Overview

Odíhg Otgèmvùzkèiē̼ was founded durring the early 16th century in summer of the year 1531, by Thu Morgan Beynon. The establishment of Odíhg Otgèmvùzkèiē̼ was only bairly constructed. The sheer number of problems with its founding were enough to make several of the backers funding Odíhg Otgèmvùzkèiē̼'s construction back out of the project. Thu Morgan Beynon pushed on reguardles, and Odíhg Otgèmvùzkèiē̼ was finished, but starts off as a terible place to live.

Odíhg Otgèmvùzkèiē̼ was built using the conventions of Tauric durring the early 16th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Odíhg Otgèmvùzkèiē̼ is no diffrent. The town's buildings feature timber framed wooden shiethed or brick construction, which gives form to a very formalized, rational, expence effishent arcatectural style based on strictly symmetrical designs which universaly feature pitched roofs, shutters, and the occasional column or pilaster for a decorative touch.

Odíhg Otgèmvùzkèiē̼ is is constructed arround a series of restrictive flagstone mainstreets which form concentric circles, with smaller strait roads linking the circiles to each other at varrious points. The town is protected by a series of wooden fences ringing the town's parimiter, which are likly intended to keep varrious beasts out of town rather than protect it from attack by any intelegent agents. Odíhg Otgèmvùzkèiē̼'s bare minimum defences 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.

A look around Odíhg Otgèmvùzkèiē̼ gives you an uneasy feeling. Everything is just a little too worn down, a little too dirty, or both. No one makes eye contact. Kids play quietly, but happily. Occasionally a passerby glances at you out of the corner of their eye, staring just long enough for it to be uncomfortable. This all rests atop the unmistakable impression the town is one of the strictest places imaginable. Everyone’s actions are clearly directed by laws they keep in heart and mind at all times. Orderly byond order is a phrase which Odíhg Otgèmvùzkèiē̼ brings to mind.
