Thalassia is a diverse port city on the east side of Eorwild. Currently [[Drop "Boss Hog the Pirate King Period"]] went to Thalassia to try to find a boat for the party. [[Luyarus Teyri]] is the underworld contact for [[Drop "Boss Hog the Pirate King Period"]] in Thalassia. ## Description Thalassia is a diverse port city that is the primary port for export on Eorwild thanks to the favorable winds. It is the 'Capital' for the [[Coastal Coalition]], the group of different port villages, towns, and smaller cities which have historically acted together on issues of military defense, and they maintain certain standards for export tariffs, coin mintage, and other similar issues. This is a city full of variety of different races, humans the largest individual group, but there are a ton of people from a variety of different places around Terravial. One of the benefits of having such a diverse city is that there always someone in Thalassia looking to celebrate or party. This is not a centrally planned city, with roads that snake up and down the town, wrapped around clusters of buildings that were often build together, over time extra space has been filled in. There are a variety of vendors on the busier streets, fishmongers, craftsfolk. odds and ends traders, and more. Religiously the diversity combined with the lack of central control means there are no laws about worship of any specific gods, either necessitating or commending. There are a variety of small temples, with several sea and water gods having much larger temples as sailors tend to give offerings in the hopes of luck before journeys. In terms of guilds and factions you should know: - the trade guild: the most powerful guild in the city because they are responsible for managing trade and collecting the taxes. - the Shadows: the shadow thieves are very active in the city, with Thalassia being their stronghold on Eorwild (less Zhentarim competition here than [[Wyepool]]) - the Zhentarim: the Zhentarim are active here as well, often focused on exporting out goods to other continents and spying - the merchant guild: separate from the trade guild, covers most of the other merchants selling things in the city - Smaller guilds: - Smith guild: - Shipbuilder guild: The city's mayor is [[Daryg Wu]], an elderly Tortle immigrant to the city who the various interests in the city all find sufficiently inoffensive to allow them to lead. ## Factions ### [[Coastal Coalition]] ![[Coastal Coalition]] ### [[Thalassian Trade Guild]] ![[Thalassian Merchant Guild]] ### [[Shadows]] ### [[TTRPG/DND/Terravial/Factions/Zhentarim|Zhentarim]] ### [[Thalassian Merchant Guild]] ![[Thalassian Merchant Guild]] ## People [[Daryg Wu]] - Daryg is the tortle mayor of the city, elderly, and well respected enough that the various disparate elements of the city find him inoffensive enough to lead.
