Overview

Pēmpf Yây Ni̋ēkēä was founded durring the late 12th century in winter of the year 1089, by Shesêpí Tresêv Brg̈gfë. The establishment of Pēmpf Yây Ni̋ēkēä was plagued by a lack of willing colonists. After attempts to pay people to resettle failed Shesêpí Tresêv Brg̈gfë struck deals with nearby nations and communities to establish Pēmpf Yây Ni̋ēkēä as a prison colony.

Pēmpf Yây Ni̋ēkēä was built using the conventions of Goblin durring the late 12th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Pēmpf Yây Ni̋ēkēä is no diffrent. The city's buildings feature delicute timber framework hidden behind layer upon layer of finly ground plaster bleached to an almost glossy white sheen, with green clay tiled roofs and decorative brass-leafed trim. Even the smallest, poorest looking structures appear to be expencive thanks to the extreem elegence of the organic shapes and paterns going into their lofty, spire-y, vagly gothic designs. The more well off folks live in identicle homes, save for even shiner trim and a more whimsical appearance to their structures flowing forms.

Pēmpf Yây Ni̋ēkēä is buildings are arranged arround a single premissive cobblestone mainstreet with many smaller streets branching off of it which gives the city a over all rectangular shape, albit one warped and twisted by the nature of the curves of the main road. The city is the proud owner of a thick set of fortified walls fashioned from querried stone blocks. While not up to snuff for a fort or castle wall, the city's walls are naturaly much larger than those of forts or castles. Therefore, the construction such a wall is most expencive. Pēmpf Yây Ni̋ēkēä's buget focused wall would serve its community well in battle in spite of looking unimpressive compared to castles and fortresses. Pēmpf Yây Ni̋ēkēä's top tier civilian 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.

Your first impression of Pēmpf Yây Ni̋ēkēä proves to be right on the money. This city 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.

Points of Interest

Pēmpf Yây Ni̋ēkēä has been cursed with some blight that makes life difficult, albeit not impossible. An offended sorcerer's vengeful Working, an outraged god's wrath, a local distortion of the Legacy, or a simple history of bad feng shui in the area may have brought the curse about. I(devise not only the curse, but the reason why the locals haven't left for better lands).

History

In time immemorial, reportedly some time during the early 2nd century the Kami spared the town from an attack. One of Pēmpf Yây Ni̋ēkēä's local festivals commemorates this miracle.
