Citadel of Roa

The Citadel of Roa (Japanese: 城塞都市ロア - Romaji: Jōsai Toshi Roa) is a fortress city in the Kingdom of Asura

History
Roa had an ancient, noble history with it. Four hundred years ago, it stood as the last bastion of defense during the war against the Demon race. Owing to that, there stood a castle in the middle of the city.

Though, despite its mighty origin story, the nobles of the imperial capital currently saw Roa as nothing more than a crude backwater full of adventurers.

Geography
Roa is the largest settlement in the Fittoa Region located in the northeastern part of the Kingdom.

Structure and Layout:
Roa is a fortified city build inside walls. Sturdy walls, 7 to 8 meters in height are wrapped around the city. As one passes through the gigantic entry gate, one would be greeted with stables and inns and the waiting area for the stagecoaches. Along the main road, lines of merchant stalls are erected. As you pass a street, lines of shops for adventurers would be there, next street there would a line of stores for the townspeople, etc. Residence buildings are nestled in the alleyways.

The city was built in such a way that the deeper you went into the city the bigger the houses became and the more luxurious the goods shops offered. The closer you lived to the centre, the richer you were.

A castle is nestled right in the middle of the city.

Population
Being the centre for the Fittoa Region, the population of Roa is fairly large. Merchants and adventurers bustle through the city all day long.

The city is also where the Region's liege family - the Boreas Greyrat household - resides.

Governance
Under the crown of the Kingdom of Asura, Roa is reigned by the Boreas Greyrat household as part of the Fittoa Region.

The city's mayor is Philip Boreas Greyrat.
