Dragonfell

within the province of the Storm Coast, on the continent of Valdemar

Dragonfell is named after a historic siege from a terrible wyrm that was slain and fell over the edge of the tall ocean side cliff the walled city sits upon. Of all the city states of Valdemar’s eastern province, Dragonfell is considered the most protected. Not only due to its physical location, along a long stretch of coastal cliffs and flanked by mountains, but because of its magical protections. It is here that magic is the most welcome in the Storm Coast, it is the headquarters of the Arcane Alliance in the East, and its denizens have the best relationship with the nearby Wood Elves of the Deepwood. Due to the belief the city is near-impregnable, their army is one of the smallest of the four major human cities, except for Windhaven which has no effective army.

While the city has a small army, it has quite a large force of battle wizards that inspire obedience from communities in the area. Like most cities of the Storm Coast its streets are filled with many different races, but it does have the largest proportion of humans. Dragonfell is led by a noble council, many of which have known or rumored ties to the Arcane Alliance. Some also say fleeing wizards from the ruined wizard city of Sorcia founded the city. It has a prosperous trade economy as it oversees the large farming efforts of the nearby Riverlands. The city is also the nearest of the Storm Coast’s four city-states to the borders of provinces North Reach and Heart Vale, so massive trade passes through it.
