Overview

Fìkh Næ Lom was founded durring the late 13th century in spring of the year 1178, by Yb-61k 'Moloch' Èlepí. The establishment of Fìkh Næ Lom was only bairly constructed. The sheer number of problems with its founding were enough to make several of the backers funding Fìkh Næ Lom's construction back out of the project. Yb-61k 'Moloch' Èlepí pushed on reguardles, and Fìkh Næ Lom was finished, but starts off as a terible place to live.

Fìkh Næ Lom was built using the conventions of Constructi durring the late 13th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Fìkh Næ Lom is no diffrent. The town's buildings feature masoned stone construction which prominantly features pointed arches, pointed ribbed vault cielings, flying buttress', and window tracery all of which share a simmilar gemoetetic patern halfway between organic and inorganic in design formaing a very distinct aesthetically integrated style. BUildings tend to reach for the havens, and more expencive homes are easily identified by their floor count as well as the addition of decorative features intigrated into the building's design such as statues, gargoyals, and embelished joinery.

Fìkh Næ Lom is buildings folow an organic layout of crampt flagstone streets whihch gives the town a shape simmilar to a tree, if one views its streets from above. 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. Unfortuantly, these bare minimum defences are in extreem disrepair, so much so that one cannot tell if they are decaying from a lack of mantance or damage incured.

Your first impression of Fìkh Næ Lom proves to be right on the money. This town is where the rebels chose to settle. Fashion trends are quite simply the opposite of what’s popular in the other nearby communities. THis trend extends everywhere. Things that should be black are white, what would normally be square is organically curved, and what is typically unthinkable for polite society is more than welcome in this public square. Up to the logical limits, of course. There’s no flaying someone alive to eat their skin going on, but the women are dressed a little immodestly, the men are a little more emotional, and the food is all overly complex and terrible.

Cultural Notes

Fìkh Næ Lom's mayor's house was built using a different architectural style from the rest of the town. The style used is best known for its functional shapes, abstract shapes used sparingly for decor, simple color schemes, holistic design, and basic industrial materials. Its simple designs were created to be beautiful, functional, and mass-producible. The style used little to no embellishment or ornamentation, instead drawing attention to the streamlined design, such as flat roofs to create a simple, geometric look. The simplicity masks the style's nearly sinister functionality, as every last feature is designed to guide the people living in the building in how to make the most efficient use of the structure.

In Fìkh Næ Lom sometimes, near one of the seasonal solstices, the sun appears to split into three and it rains from a clear sky for several hours.

The Sylph near Fìkh Næ Lom are known to be more aggressive than normal.

Fìkh Næ Lom's citizens partake in a curious ritual relating to their local kami. It takes place in winter and involves line dance to channel Abjuration energies of tier 1 via recitation of scripture.
