Livbringaren

Livbringaren is a satellite settlement of New Gork, founded in 2339, ten years after the end of season 3.5. It's located roughly 5.5 hours from the main city. Like New Gork, it's open to any who wish to live there.

Founding
In 2329, after the defeat of the deathstrider, many adventurers struggled with the loss of their friends in the battle. As a tribute to them, and a testament to the determination that their deaths not be in vain, they began to rebuild the town which once housed the deathstrider as the first continental settlement beyond New Gork.

The reconstruction of the town took ten years, during which time buildings were renovated, landmarks added, and dedications to fallen adventurers made. Once the reconstruction was complete, the town's founders named it Livbringaren, the Giant word for Lifebringer—the ultimate dedication to Jaiyna Lifebringer and all the other adventurers they had lost to the deathstrider.

Government
As a satellite settlement of New Gork, overall governance is the jurisdiction of New Gork's council. However, the town does have local elected officials who directly oversee its affairs.

Landmarks
Livbringaren is home to several notable landmarks, most a dedication of some form to adventurers.

Fountain
One of the most impressive creations in the town, the fountain is located in the center of the town square and is almost always running. The centerpiece is a fourteen-foot-tall statue of Jaiyna Lifebringer, poised as if rising out of the water, a determined look on her face and her greataxe held in both hands.

Mansion
Four stories high atop a small hill in the very center of town, the mansion was once the refuge of the deathstrider. It has been repurposed to serve as the home of many of Livbringaren's most important locations: the library on the fourth flour; a wide array of shrines on the third; an expansion of the Door Temple on the second; and the Museum of Heroes on the first, which includes both the Main Hall for notable adventurers, and the Hall of Fallen Heroes for those who fell in battle.

The basement of the mansion is partially cordoned off, but guided tours are available as part of the museum.

Wyvern Stables
Though not as extensive as the stables of New Gork or Kanara, Livbringaren boasts a small fleet of wyverns for its residents, as well as stable space for more should others visit from New Gork. The stables are located to the southwest of town.

Defenses
Livbringaren is located much farther onto the continent than New Gork, and constantly faces the threats of the jungle. As such, many defenses have been put in place to protect its residents.

Walls
Tall and nigh unreachable, the walls not only function as a deterrent to the creatures of the jungle, but also a way to combat them. Its mounted ballistae are often used to fend off attackers, and boast an array of ways to do so, from standard bolts to freezing rays.

Constructs
These constructs are Livbringaren's primary patrol force and warning system. They're shaped like large cats, color-coded by sector, and able to relay threat detection messages back to the town. Though they're intended first and foremost as an early warning system, they're capable of defending themselves and the town if necessary.

Remnants of the Deathstrider
In some ways, the land itself is a defense against potential attackers. Following the expulsion of the deathstrider from the area, its dark influence receded, and the land itself sprung back with brilliant resilience. The area now repels undead, and offers those who enter some manner of protection from harm.

Flag
Livbringaren's flag represents moving forward, rising from the ashes, and rebirth—rebirth of the town after the Cataclysm, after the deathstrider, and after the sacrifices of Jaiyna, Jubal, and Nook in the fight against it. It represents that the people will not let those losses hold them back, for they have the strength to overcome them and continue beyond. The white field represents the town's ideals of truth, sincerity, and peace; the red represents their strength; and the gold, their determination to continue forward and bring light and hope to this once desecrated place.
