Overview

J̼ùbzāy Se was founded durring the early 15th century in spring of the year 1419, by Cākīb Jóch 'Vixen Golden' Gāb Sé̄kidī Mbōrméō Ca̋nvé̄y Rërm Edward. The establishment of the new community went well, though many minor issues had to be solved as time went on. This was enough to delay construction and push back the formal opening ceramony, leading to some embarisment for Cākīb Jóch 'Vixen Golden' Gāb Sé̄kidī Mbōrméō Ca̋nvé̄y Rërm Edward.

J̼ùbzāy Se was built using the conventions of Tauric durring the early 15th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and J̼ùbzāy Se 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.

J̼ùbzāy Se is buildings are arranged arround a network of narrow 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 sits behind a stone-renforced palisade wall, with stone gatehouses and timber drawbridges for their trench. J̼ùbzāy Se's would-be-castle fortifications has sufferd soem light damage, reducing its function a little in some spots, but could almsot certainly preform as expected... Though some of the worse spots could lead to the loss of defenders lives if attackers identified the weaknesses ahead of time.

A look around J̼ùbzāy Se 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 jsut long enough for it to be uncomfortable. People seem to be allowed to do as they please with little harmoney to anything. It feels less like a town, and more like a spot people just happened to place their homes.

It used columns, pediments, arches and domes are imaginatively in buildings of all types.
