Trosstin (City)

Trosstin is the capital and political headquarters of the City-State nation of the same name. This page is focused on the city itself rather than the nation.

## Landmarks

### Dancing Fields

The dancing field is a series of mosaic squares outside the city walls, where most performances that relate to dancing are held. Outside of those events, the mosaic squares sparkle in the light, and get changed through a complex underground mechanism every second month, highlighting a different event or artist every time. At certain festivals, such as Christmas, the fields are changed to accompany the theme.

### Rainmaker

The rainmaker is a large mechanism in the city's middle district. In summer time it is used as a place of entertainment and for kids, shooting water out and cooling down the citizens, getting drained back into the sea. Other times, the water can be coloured with dye and used to celebrate a certain event. When the monarch makes a speech near the location, the rainmaker either uses dyed liquids similar to the colour the monarch specifically likes or sparks.

### Trosstin's Globe

Trosstin’s Globe is a symbolic part of the city, placed in the centre, it is a large globe that maps some of the world. Specifically, it maps where the Trosslan have travelled too on funded expeditions. So far it reaches through all of South-East Arlec, mapping every town or city they came across, including some unique locations.

## Education

Trosstin has 3 major schools for education, each for a certain level of income. Outside of academics, there are schools specifically to help people with singing, dancing or inventing.

## Guilds

### Aliquam Guild

The Aliquam Guild is the guild police of the world, acting as the natural check of power to the others. They are completely neutral, working to assess or enforce the current regulation and procedures placed on the guilds. If two guilds, or nations, enter a dispute, the Aliquam Guild are the ones who mediate it and come to a conclusion.

### Barktree Lions

The Barktree Lions are one of the 3 big adventuring guilds in the region. They are easily identified by their unique piece of bark attached to their armour or clothing, coming from their famous Lion Tree. In Trosstin they are quite big, using it as a base since they have troubles in Uhek.

### Labourers Guild

The Labourers Guild helps labourers find work and employees find workers. They work closely with some of the other guilds in the cities to set their members up for work, taking a small commission out of their first pays. They often own their own businesses in the cities they are based in, employing only members of their own guild.

### Lucent

Lucent is one of the 3 big adventuring guilds in the region. Their name comes from their founder, who is said to have skin that always had a small glow to it. Many members later decided to mimic this, having some sort of shiny material or item attached to their clothing and armour.

### Sunwarm

The Sunwarm Guild is a major merchants guild in the world of Arlec. In Trosstin, they own some of the docks, letting them make a fair amount of profit. Though, as Trosstin came about much later, they compete with many other businesses and guilds.

### Tailor's Guild

The Tailor’s Guild was first formed in Trosstin, making it a very big and successful organisation. The guild is a resource for tailors to find work and commissions, while also setting what the fashion standard is around the world. If a nation sets regulations specifically around clothing, it is the Tailor’s Guild that enforces them, making sure every business follows the law.

### Viper's Fang

The Viper’s Fang is the final 1 of the 3 big adventuring guilds in the region. They are famous for their use of poison and willingness to accept any dangerous tasks. Their fame also spreads to their initiation process, where a person must drink poison to be fully accepted into the guild.

## Sports and Entertainment

### Cilan Handball Stadium

The Cilan Handball Stadium was a stadium built by Cilam Balbillus, a Nirvan who helped make the port popular in Trosstin. The stadium itself can host around 10,000 people, making it a very impressive feat. Each year, the annual tournament finals brings around 8,000 people, and can reach capacity if it's an international tournament, making it incredibly popular and profitable.

### Ilano Arena

The Ilano Arena is a huge arena outside of the city reserved for Soccer. It hosts many major events both from the city and region and internationally as well. For the grounds themselves, it is known for having a mechanism that keeps the grass always fresh, though requires cutting from time to time.

### Nekodo Theatre

The Nekodo Theatre was a theatre inspired by the Sukarno but went the route of easier access. Rather than make it so that it was reserved for only the rich, it was built to host weekly events, even more. It has a capacity of 1,500 and is very popular with the people.

### Sukarno Theatre

The Sukarno Theatre is a very prestigious theatre in Trosstin, holding some of the first shows of dancing and singing (separately or combined). It originally only had a capacity of 100 people but has since been expanded to 1,000, hosting some of the richest events in the city and nation.

## Religion

### Whisperers

The Whisperers religion was founded in Trosstin, making it the state-accepted and only religion in the city. While there are shrines to respect the others, only the Whisperers religion can build anything notable. Using the engineer geniuses from the city, they are able to make the very walls transmit noise much easier. There are a total of 4 churches in the city, in the noble district, middle district and two outside city walls.
