Greater Arnora
Greater Arnora
Greater Arnora is composed of the grasslands and foothills surrounding the metropolis of Arnora. The current government has fallen from their lofty beginnings. Issues will rarely be dealt with unless sponsored by a guild with members in power and the internal politics are labyrinthine. The economy is built upon heavy industry, guild and college training, and the rich trade that flows through the Arnora Marketplace. The guilds and colleges run most of the economy and few earn more than subsistence wages without membership in a guild or college. The people of Arnora are the most diverse in the land. There is a constant flow off immigration from other lands, looking for opportunity. Few achieve the greatness they seek, and the slums of Arnora (named Downriver but commonly called Babrak’s Ass or just the Ass) are densely populated. Most nobility and many master craftsmen and professionals spend a few years in Arnora learning from one of the guilds or colleges. Arnora’s relations with the other noble houses are highly variable, depending so much upon the guild or college that is currently strongest. Even when relations are most tense, the familiarity between the guilds and colleges and the nobility has kept any major conflicts from arising. The Arnoran military is not large, but their town guards are brutally effective and they can depend upon the aid many of the most feared alumni of the colleges of wizardry, military theory, and whomever else they need to.
