Overview

Kèr Ftirfizíhdà was founded durring the early 13th century in fall of the year 1210, by Groukwaline Goiē̼ā Āko. 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 Groukwaline Goiē̼ā Āko.

Kèr Ftirfizíhdà was built using the conventions of Tauric durring the early 13th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Kèr Ftirfizíhdà is no diffrent. The town's buildings feature stone brick construction with most buildings posessing towers, turrets, dormers, and wide wrap-around porches. An extreem emphasis on decorative features and emblishments can be seen even on the poorest of homes and makes even the most humble of structures seem a bit regal.

Kèr Ftirfizíhdà is buildings are arranged arround a single crampt paverstone mainstreet with many smaller streets branching off of it which gives the town a over all rectangular shape, albit one warped and twisted by the nature of the curves of the main road. The town posesses a fortified albit thin wall of querried stone. This wall posesses most of the features of a castle wall, though it is constructed from cheeper inferior stone. It would pose a minor chalange for an attacking army, though it's clear the wall's true purpose is to crush the hopes of bandits and marauders. Unfortuantly, these failry decent fortifications are in extreem disrepair, so much so that one cannot tell if they are decaying from a lack of mantance or damage incured.

Even the most brief look arround Kèr Ftirfizíhdà has a good chance of putting a church or shrine into the center of your view. The town is most certainly a god fearing community. It’s also definitely a god loving community. THe streetcornors are occupied by preachers, with the occasional intersection playing host to an actually friendly debate relating to the merits of various gods. Even the less popular as well as the less politically loved gods seem to have a space in Kèr Ftirfizíhdà, there’s even shrines to gods known to the region only through hearsay.

Cultural Notes

While Kèr Ftirfizíhdà might ostensibly be ruled by some other power, real control lies with the senior members of the local craft and labor guilds. Their decisions have the practical weight of law, and much of their time and effort is spent squeezing out competitors and parceling out economic opportunities in the community. Some guilds might have little or nothing to do with their original trade, and now exist purely as shells for political influence.

Kèr Ftirfizíhdà's bank was built using a different architectural style from the rest of the town. The style used embraces individualism and experimentation. It emerged as a movement against traditional, classical styles and sought to make buildings dynamic and fun while breaking the rules. The style incorporated elements of previous architectural styles in exaggerated and whimsical ways. Traditional, conservative leanings were void in this era, with most scholars of architecture agreeing it was a time of “anything goes.”.

Due to the actions of local Kami, autumn is short in Kèr Ftirfizíhdà.

The Mud Elemental, Large near Kèr Ftirfizíhdà are known to be quite timid.

Kèr Ftirfizíhdà's citizens partake in a curious ritual relating to their local kami. It takes place in summer and involves sacrificing an animal to channel Abjuration energies of tier 2 via recitation of poetic epics.
