Mpya Stedor is the biggest city on the mainland of the South Eastern Siccus Badlands. The closest big city is the legendary city of Berigora.
Mpya Stedor is founded when Lord Damaximus arrived at the lands of Historica. And has flourished ever since.
Famous for this city is the trade network it has with other cities in Historica and other Guilds from other continents.
Background[]
Mpya Stedor is named after the mythical city of Stedor, City of Science in the Guild of Ximus. As Lord Damaximus was raised in Ximus, he decided to call his new home after one of the most glorious cities he ever saw.
Thanks to Lord Damaximus and his brother Mattiximus, Mpya Stedor has a great trade connection with the Guild of Ximus. Some people even consider Mpya Stedor as a colony of the Guild of Ximus, but this can be rejected by the fact that Lord Damaximus has absolute power in the city, without having the obligation of reporting everything.
However, due to their close connection, the Guild of Ximus helps Mpya Stedor a lot by sending armies, weapons, financial aid, and supplies.
The influence of the Guild of Ximus can be seen in the Herald of Mpya Stedor, as can be seen in the picture. The red and blue colours stands for Kaliphlin, while the red and black are representing Ximus. The golden stars represent the wealth and the sky of the city.
Structure[]
The city exists of 3 bigger Quarters:
- Inner city
- Outer city
- Garrison Quarter
It is naturally defended by the mountain and volcano Beheregen, and the sea and the desert.
To avoid destruction when the volcano erupts, Moenver Slaves (The lowest level in the scale of slaves, as it all are ex-murderers and rapers) have build big canals around the city to lead the lava to other places.
