Work In Progress

A joint venture between the Duskarians and the native Sirrisian's, once a minor way station, now a major space port and a melting pot of NDC and native architecture and construction.

History

Growing from the small way station centered around Tellas's Bar, run by the aforenamed Tellas, a Yilas Vaigarian who had taken up trade as a brewmistress and barkeep. Now spanning over the river which once bordered the station, the city is a joint effort in the last 25 years of rapid explosive expansion to provide the New Dusk Conclave another port from which to operate it's space fleet, both military and merchant, from. This unique blending of needs and styles results in a very short history that has very quickly become a beacon of the efforts by both sides to find a middle ground.

Description

Optional. What does the location look like? What are its characteristics? If it has any unique or noteworthy areas, they may warrant a section of their own under this category.

If a location AT this location (like a shop at the mall) is significant enough, you can make an article under this article's namespace and it will automatically show up in the list below.

Points of Interest

Optional. What are some things at this location that a traveler might want to know about? You don't need to cover every possible thing of interest, but it's a good idea to provide enough 'meat' that players get a good feel for what can be done at this location.

An inn might have a bar and rooms worth describing in detail.

A city might have parks, a town hall, restaurants, and so on.

A solar system might have planets, moons, asteroids, and/or stars.

A home might have bedrooms, a garage, a kitchen, and so on.

A ship/space station might have maintenance corridors, hangars, hallways, shopping, bunks, a command center, a reactor core, and so on.

A planet may have continents, cities, ports, rivers, mountains, and so on.

When a Point of Interest needs extra detail, consider making a “child article” and providing a brief description here to garner interest. Articles made 'under' this article in the namespace (location:this_article:child_article) will automatically show up in the list at the bottom of this article, but you can link them wherever else is appropriate.

Geography

Built along an unnamed river mouth, Skylador is a city which not only climbs to the heavens with it's Duskarian skyscrapers, though this are not the same flat obelisks of Obsidian City, trimmed as they are with stone carvings and decorative designs, but also below into the ground in more traditional Sirrisian fashion with towers of stone girded by carefully managed canals and wide streets. The landscape around the river itself is relatively flat, with few hills to really vary the buildings upon which the city is built. Of significant note however is the 'bracing' which lines both sides of the river, and is interspersed with grated holes for water to flow down below to the lower city and fuel it's canals and the like.

Demographics

The first major city in which the population is a heady mix of Vaigarin, Tumnisian, and the various Duskarian peoples, it is home to a population of nearly 250,000, which is noted to be on the rise as Tumnisians from various families, several Vaigarin also of various families come to see a city which blends their ways with those of the new residents of their world.

Economy

Optional. How is business conducted here? Do they have a special type of currency? If so, how is it used? Are there any major economic activities or buildings?

Education

Optional. Do people learn here in a way that is different from other places? Are there any notable places of education?

Culture and Contemporary Life

Optional. How do people here live their lives or carry out their day-to-day activities? Is it slow or fast paced? Do they have arts? Cuisine? Are there any special events that take place here?

Government and Politics

Owing the Sirissian origin of hte city, it is run by a Vaigarin, though they have a council which is comprised of one Tumnisian, and two Duskarians for the purpose of ensuring that both sides have some level, hopefully equal, say in the running of the city. Many consider the Vaigarin running things to be the closest version to a 'mayor' the Sirrisan forms of government has.

Resources

Optional. Does this location have any resources that makes it noteworthy? Is anything produced here that makes it stand out?

Transportation

The city is rather proud of it's three major arms of public transit, and also the roads and skyroads (designated aerial 'roads') with which more 'normal' traffic can flow, as well as the canal vessels which support it. The Public Transit Service does charge users fare for it's use. It is split between the Canal Lines, the Road Lines, and the Border Lines. Canal Lines only run in the canals and serve as the means for many to move between major sections of the city's lower levels. Road lines operate on the surface, and use buses to transport loads of persons along predefined routes, so that they may get off at predesignated points. The Border Lines are two-fold: The first is the elevator services which help transfer people from surface to under-city, and then there is the sky transports which carter mainly to Duskarian persons along the skyroads.
