Hike (City)

Description
Major city in the Snake Kingdom founded by Hike that is the seat of the major house of Hike.

Geography
City is in the east of the Snake Kingdom on the southern shore with ports on the Fareast Sea.

City
The city is fairly organized however the buildings are built with very weak brick and stone. As the City is built very close to the desert there is a fair amount of sand in and around the city, which causes for weakly built buildings. Since buildings are often getting destroyed and rebuilt the layout of the city always changes and confuses many people. The City has a large port however it is not used very often and when it is, mainly for small ventures. The few Creatures that are around the city are fairly docile and do not cause too much trouble.

Castle
The Castle is built very near the water out of imported brick to make sure that it does not fall apart like the rest of the buildings in the city. Castle has many large empty rooms that are serving no purpose.

People
Hikens are a quiet people and solitary. They do not like to be bothered by outsiders and intimidate those who arrive in the city enough to make sure they do not return. The people usually do the job that they need to do and nothing else. There is rarely any "fun" in the city as Hikens spend their free times sitting around or finding more business.

Food
There is decent farmland around the city along the coast that provides a decent amount for the city. Fishing is common and provides the most amount of resources for the city. Hunting is less common and does not provide a lot of game.

Army
The army of Hike is quite large as most of the male citizens are a part of the army. There are good fighters, mostly in a one on one setting, however they do not have a lot of strategic knowledge and fighting as a group is not one of their strong suits
