Most buildings are not decorated with any integral features, but instead use ivy, flowers, and other natural elements in planters of on trellices to breathe life into the structure they grow upon.

The town has a fortified albit thin brick wall. The wall has most of the feeatures of a typical castle wall, just on a much smaller scale and and budget. Notably brick isn't a particuarly soild choice for resisting siege weapons. Kèr Qùjabog's wall wouldn't hinder a proper army, but it is more than sufishent for bandits and other small marauding groups. Kèr Qùjabog's monster and outlaw focused 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.

The details of the conflict are hazy at best due to many conflicting accounts. What is known is Kèr Qùjabog lost 141 people, 107 livestock, and 41 buildings. The conflict ended after roughly 44, when members of Kèr Qùjabog's militia enacted an operation to liberate a particular strategic location from the enemy. The operation was complicated by an outbreak of plague which struck the ranks, killing many and laying low many more. The conflict ended with an assault and siege on the strategic location, which ended in defeat for Kèr Qùjabog's forces. The war is remembered in legend by Kèr Qùjabog's bards, historians, and legend keepers.
