The city of Arkington was originally founded by Lord Halueth Arkington. This great lord was laid to rest - so local tavern tales swear - on a huge slab of stone encircled by a ring of naked swords laid with their points radiating outward. These magic blades animate to attack all intruders if the precise instructions graven in cryptic verses on the flagstones are not followed.
Today Arkington is ruled by the Mayor, an amiable warrior who keeps his city firmly in the Alliance with Pranton and Grimscott. The Mayor has laid many intrigues and clerical preparations against attacks from Arkington's warlike attackers, The Orcs. The Mayor doesn't allow maps of the city to be made. This is to keep the spies of enemies busy and add a minor measure of difficulty to any invasion plans.
The royal badge of the city is a Cruicifix - emblazoned on all of the Guards tabards. The badgers are encrusted with the purest gold in the land, the metal used is told to have been bathed in Holy Water for at least three years.
Arkington is always smothered in her bodyguards, the Arkington Brotherhood. These warriors are entrusted with the many magic items the Mayor accumulated over a very successful decade of adventuring.
