Byzantium

Byzantium

Founded in 1015 by Chewius, and expatriot of Jenn Kellon on the east side of Crystal Canal. Like its historical namesake, Byzantium lies on an important waterway and is at the crossroads of important trade routes in southern central Freedom Isle. There is a templar to keep out criminals and tower consripts to fend of beasts, making it a safe place to live. The village has grown into the largest in the canal area. wurm201108191748.jpg view from Bearshark Overlook

Moonshine Bay

The colonial outpost of Byzantium on Deliverance.

Key buildings and facilities

  • Foundry - close to the mine ramp and place for metal smithing and other crafting, storage for bulk materials
  • Shipyard- on the bay beside the docks. A convenient place for building ships or offloading cargo.
  • Mines- main mine down ramp from the foundry has iron copper and lead veins. 2nd mine along the shore with lead.
  • The Barn - near the farmlands. Storage for food and materials, convenient location for crafting non metal items.
  • Stables - field for village horses and cows and other non aggressive creatures.
  • Cafe - house for cooking and food storage.
  • Bazaar- facility for merchants. (Now moved to the canal side) 1 so far, anyone is welcome.
  • Spirit cottage - at village plaza near the token (70) cast
  • Trader - on sight, may need to ask for access.

Resources

Important ores including iron and lead and copper are in on deed mine, we maintain tree farms and an almost completed

island for controlled but open access to clay. We also have access to silver and tar. Growing cow and deer

herds will provide meat and hides.

Transportation

By sea: Likely the easiest way to get to Byzantium for most people. From The Howel and Freedom Market via Freedom

Harbor cross Crystal Lake southward to the canal. Can also be easily reached from the southern sea.

By land: Road infrastructure in these parts is limited due to steep mountains across the canal though a main high

way leads to Byzantium from Free Bears to the south and new roads are being made to connect with Avocano.

Recruiting, villagers and housing

We are welcoming any constructive players experienced or not. We just like to have a good time. You're welcome to

help with village projects or do your own thing. There is good area for hunting nearby as well. While the village

population grows there is plenty of room for individual housing if desired or room at the two inns if all you

want is a bed and a chest. wurm201106271709.jpg founding
