Castle Utgard

Castle Utgard is a structure that appears in AoT Season 2, and is one of the first steps that 8th Axis is making towards an actual coherent storyline for the first time in nine years. It was added to the server in the afternoon of October 25th and is the very first Loot Structure, a standalone area with loot chests unlike the towns. It is a PvP zone and can be used for combat.

===Areas===
*The Castle makes up the surrounding area with crumbling walls and rooms. It consists of horse stables, soldier barracks, a small kitchen, and a large collection of seal crates. It contains no less than eleven Loot Chests, three Double Loot Chests, and four Trapped Loot Chests.
*The Tower is the main area of Castle Utgard and is located in the north-west corner of the castle. It is the area of greatest significance, being the part featured in the franchise, and thus will likely be a quest area in the future. It even includes the cannon that Sasha, Jean, and Connie rolled down the staircase right into a small Titan.

==History==
Castle Utgard is a building left over from the Old Eldian Empire, which is evident from its similarities to the castle in Oakenheart. It is unknown exactly who built it, but it was likely used as a base at some point due to the conditions of some structures compared to others. For example, the horse stables and the other, collapsed towers. It was likely not used by bandits, as there are no gang banners anywhere throughout the site, but more likely military personal or something of that sort. 
As it is a fairly new structure, there is not yet a codex entry for it.
==Trivia==
*Castle Utgard was not meant to be made until later, but was made in the server buildworld just for fun by BT Chicken010709 and later edited by BT Meme and Head-BT death506 before being pasted in
*Utgard is a word in Old Norse meaning something akin to "outlands". This could be tied into Ironsson lore due to their Viking-esq features
