Maeralion is the largest settlement on the island of Maeral. The town is built on a swamp, with some of its houses standing on stilts connected by rickety gangplanks. Maeralion has more non-elves than the rest of Iacaris, but is still predominantly elven. Narrow waterways is the main mode of transportation, and most houses have a small dock where rowboats can make harbor.
The town guard, as it is, patrols the surrounding swamps mounted on tall raptor lizards. Tribes of lizardfolk live in the swamps, hunting its denizens for food and skins, which they sometimes trade with the townsfolk here.
The Dirty Flagon
Modest inn
The only inn in Maeral. Run by Filmer Mudbeard (male dwarf, CG). Not the finest establishment, but as it has no competition, it is nonetheless the watering hole of choice for most of the townsfolk.
The Swampmarket
This market on the outskirts of Maeral is where the locals trade with lizardfolk and other traders from the island. The market is a series of roofed platforms on short stilts over a swampy lake, where rowboats dock for trading.
FTC Warehouse
Maeral has recently seen some FTC activity, who condider its riches underutilized. As they usually do, the FTC started by recruiting criminal gangs with vast sums of money, clearing the way to make their operations 'legit' and quickly taking over their business. The leader on Maeral is an elf called Milynna nan Maeral, who previously ran a smuggling operation. This large building is used both as storage and as trading post, where merchants and farmers come to make deals on various swamp goods.
