Overview

Rehv Vugno Ÿhkphÿh was founded durring the early 14th century in winter of the year 1300, by Trîbê. 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 Trîbê.

Rehv Vugno Ÿhkphÿh was built using the conventions of Undermountain durring the early 14th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Rehv Vugno Ÿhkphÿh is no diffrent. The city's buildings feature waddle and daub construction with good timber frames and a stone foundation protected by thatched or shingled rooves. Most buildings with second floors are built in such a way as to overhang into the streets on the upper floors for more space, as building size seems to be the primary indicator of wealth within the community. 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.

Rehv Vugno Ÿhkphÿh is buildings are grouped arround an odd layout of restrictive worn bedrock streets, which seems to be based on an overlapping squair patern such that there are small squares at the cornor of every bigger square. Sometimes buildings exist in the smaller squaires, other times they are open spaces, or occupied by temporary structures. The city posesses a mighty albit amaturly crafted stone wall. It was built using querried stone blocks and posesses all of the standard defencive features, including a few watch towers. While it would last against a siege, the wall's outdated and simplistic construction method percludes the possability of Rehv Vugno Ÿhkphÿh weathering a full scale bombardment durring a siege. Rehv Vugno Ÿhkphÿh's budget focused millitary grade defenses are suffering from significent damage, so much so that examples can be pointed to no matter which section one might have within their line of site, and most of which render sections inoperable at present.
