Dunwall

The jewel of Seivens Ring, Dunwall is the largest and most prosperous city in the Ring. It is located at the strait of Dunn connecting the Walled Sea to the Amarantine Sea. It is thanks to the toll that city collects on this sea strait that Dunwall has grown as rich and powerful.

It is governed by the leading families of Dunwall. Only with a good name will you ever find yourself in a position of importance within this city, unless of course you buy a good name for yourself. The current leader for five consecutive terms is Martin Blackbriar of the Blackbriar family. The Blackbriars have a very dominant share of the export of metal ore in Seivens Ring. There is scarcely a mine that does not carry the Blackbriar name. Their fiercest competitors are naturally the dwarves of Cragheim and the Seljen Family of Stonekirk.

Because of Dunwall’s reliance on trade and income from the toll, it employs a great navy to protect its trade and enforce the toll. Only the Order of the Sunhand are exempt of this toll. It is because of piracy stemming from the Kingdom of Beren and their refusal to pay the toll, that the city of Dunwall has sent punitive expeditions to the Kingdom of Beren.

Dunwall is a metropolis where all races can be found living side by side, but not necessarily in peace.

The City stretches over the various islands that breach and calm the strait of Dunn, connected by a variety of stone and wood bridges. Hundreds of avenues, streets and picturesque alleys crisscross these islands. It is impossible to count and map all of them and even citizens who have lived their entire lives in Dunwall keep finding new shortcuts to their destinations. If you are new to the city and wish to avoid the seedier parts of the city, one should remain on the major roads and avenues. Wander off at your own peril! The most important landmarks of the city are Dunn’s Hall, the Arsenal, Forska square, Dunwall harbour and the nearby square and Hall of Commerce, the temple of Seiven, the temple of Lethis and the temple of Potatis.
