Overview

Fimt-shêg̈atî Bî was founded durring the late 11th century, by Rust Trèbêbrí. The establishment of Fimt-shêg̈atî Bî was only bairly constructed. The sheer number of problems with its founding were enough to make several of the backers funding Fimt-shêg̈atî Bî's construction back out of the project. Rust Trèbêbrí pushed on reguardles, and Fimt-shêg̈atî Bî was finished, but starts off as a terible place to live.

Fimt-shêg̈atî Bî was built using the conventions of Iron Elven durring the late 11th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Fimt-shêg̈atî Bî 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.

Fimt-shêg̈atî Bî is buildings are arranged arround a network of spacious paverstone streets which form a diagonal shaped grid, where each square verries in size given the proximity of the paralell streets forming each section. The ocasional smaller square has been used to construct a park, plaza, and other communal structures. The town posesses a mighty albit amaturly crafted stone wall. It was built using querried stone blocks and posesses all of the standard defencive features, including a few watch towers. While it would last against a siege, the wall's outdated and simplistic construction method percludes the possability of Fimt-shêg̈atî Bî weathering a full scale bombardment durring a siege. Fimt-shêg̈atî Bî's budget focused millitary grade defenses are in an unremarkable state. To some, this is the ideal sate for defences to be in. In need of absoutly nothing, and ready to serve the town as needed.

Fimt-shêg̈atî Bî is not quite well. Something happened here, perhapse recently, perhapse long ago. Whatever it was, it settled into the very soul of the town like a festering wound. The people go about their day well enough, but there’s a tention in the air you can cut with a knife.

Cultural Notes

Two or more groups of citizens within Fimt-shêg̈atî Bî hate each other. Their neighbors or the local law have kept things from too-overt violence, but members of the groups will constantly interfere with their rivals and cause whatever misery they can get away with. This hate may spring from recent events, or it may be an inherited spite from old wrongs.

Fimt-shêg̈atî Bî's bank was built using a different architectural style from the rest of the town. The style used is known primarily for its use of abstraction and simplicity. Clean lines, right angles, and primary colors characterized this aesthetic and art movement expressed via architecture and paintings. Its design ethos allows only primary colors and non-colors, only squares and rectangles, only straight and horizontal or vertical lines. Vertical and horizontal lines are positioned in layers or planes that do not intersect, thereby allowing each element to exist independently and unobstructed by other elements. These seemingly impossible principals for an architectural style coalesces into structures which most experts find hard to put into words. It is not that their geometry is impossible, but rather the style's attempt at producing works only describable visually was most successful..

In Fimt-shêg̈atî Bî there is a constant smell of overcooked presumably ethnic food.

Fimt-shêg̈atî Bî's citizens partake in a curious ritual relating to their local kami. It takes place in summer and involves reenactments to channel Mysticism energies of tier 2 via guttural bellowing.
