Avismere

“Aye, you can find 'em 'ere. You can try to nab 'im too. But you think you can nab a pirate captain from the Enclave and not find yerself at the bottom o' the sea?”
- Captain Davemt to the Cognate Bounty Hunter Mergojak

Basic Information

Avismere is host to three cities, isolated from the main lands of Lorica. Although part of Sabisia-Nidia by technicality, the distance and lack of government offers no protector from the mainland.

Maps

 Map of Avismere

Cities

Enclave of Anchors

A bastion for pirates, privateers, and ne'er-do-wellers of the sea, this city is disorganized, dirty, but well guarded from all manner of the law.

The Code
  • No Stealing from your fellow pirates
  • No Killing your fellow pirates
  • On their ship, every captain is a King
  • Everyone defends the Code

Though no one in particular enforces the code, not following it will likely end up with the code-breaker drowned per tradition. No clemency, no mercy.

A'ren Lenora

This sea-side city is one of beauty and art. The Sea Elves who call this home have had time to create soaring towers and perfected a certain amount of horticulture. Only very rarely does a pirate decide to raid the home of the Sea Elves, and the resulting action from A'ren Lenora makes legends for ages.

A'ren Lenora is thought to be a city carved from the sea and land by the ancient elf-queen Lenora, whose body rests at the Shrine of Lenora, a holy spot.

Hayagawa

Not truly a city, this outpost exists for the Drow of the House Shang to interact with the Sunwalkers. Although they have a presence in the Enclave of Anchors, they primarily are fortified at Hayagawa, where major transactions take place. House Shang are known for their incredible ranged weapons, such as bows, ballista, and other weapons for naval warfare. They are also notable marksmen with little respect for a fair fight.

Notable Places

Shrine of Lenora

This holy spot to the Sea Elves is where Lenora's body is laid

Lenora A'akar (Lake of Lenora)

This inland lake is known for good fishing, a certain kind of serenity, and zealous guarding by the Lenorans

Omibel

This abandoned Kalashtari city is rumored to be haunted, and the city expands significantly beneath the island it sits on. Generally, the island is safe enough to moor a boat, but you will find very few going to the city of ghosts

Roxden Tops (NE Mountains)

These sharp mountains almost overhang eastward, causing a nigh-on desert on the eastern side

Crêtes d'Argenmont (SW Mountains)

These shorter mountains sit wide and are a source of minerals and ores for the Lenorans

Notable People

Captain Philomena "The Straight" - a famous pirate queen from the Prevalen plains, known for her blunt honesty in deals and rejection, has been a known name for over a decade - a very long time for a pirate. Though she's had many ships of the years, he current one is known as the “Roaring Plume”
