Warcester

Warcester is a city that prides itself on two things. Music and warriors. A popular place for those aspiring to be bards. Recently, Warcester has attracted some more attention than usual due to the Warcester Warrior Entertainment, an organisation of gladiators who fight for entertainment.

City Description
Almost all of the buildings in Warcester are made from a yellow limestone, which sometimes looks golden in the right light. The roofs are made with clay roof tiles and the streets are cobbled.

The city is split in two by a large ravine which was created one hundred and sixty one years ago in a devastating earthquake. The gorge is two hundred and twenty feet at its widest and four hundred feet at its deepest. The city is fairly well fortified because of this; everything is surrounded by either a ravine or thirty foot walls.

Young urchins like to hang around the entrances to the city. They call themselves "Wayfinders" and charge a small amount to guide newcomers around the city.

History
A notable figure in Warcester's history is Aurora Fairfax. She was the first child of the lord and lady of Warcester and first in line of succession. Aurora embodied everything Warcester prided itself on. She was handy with a blade and was famous for her singing. She was kind to the people of the city, and everyone was eager for her rule. It was not to be however, as she died during the Eternal Storm one hundred and sixty years ago. Nowadays, she is remembered fondly. There is a statue and shrine to her in the Dawn Gardens and the Amphitheatre of Aurora was named after her.
