The establishment of Jimthë-thag̈ig̈ê Fêqê was only bairly constructed. The sheer number of problems with its founding were enough to make several of the backers funding Jimthë-thag̈ig̈ê Fêqê's construction back out of the project. Allicaena Trthëm Trgarê Shonke Shëkê pushed on reguardles, and Jimthë-thag̈ig̈ê Fêqê was finished, but starts off as a terible place to live.

Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Jimthë-thag̈ig̈ê Fêqê 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.

Jimthë-thag̈ig̈ê Fêqê is buildings are located arround a single restrictive packed earth mainstreet which forms a clockwise spiral to give the town a over all circular shape. The town emploies a series of defencive earthworks, spikes, and fences to provide some protection against wild beasts and smaller groups of intelegent foes. The minimaly adiquite have not been wellmaintained over the years, and while functional are in dire need of some loving care and perhapse light renovation.

Jimthë-thag̈ig̈ê Fêqê has the unmistakable air of a town on its last legs. Everything is a bit slipshod and ramshackle. Everyone is at work, or drinking. No one has anything in their eyes other than fear and despair. Whatever industry once fueled Jimthë-thag̈ig̈ê Fêqê ’s existence has dried up and the town is drifting down the stream of history as it dries up. The locals seem to have responded to their slow downfall by recreating Jimthë-thag̈ig̈ê Fêqê as 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 the town brings to mind.
