====== Strossbourg ======
===== Details =====
A city on the Eastern Continent, directly linked to Acryn through the Dragon Gates.

The City State of Strossbourg is ruled over by a conclave of five Archmagi, one for each of the Rites of Binding, Consumption, Manipulation, Scribing and Unification.

The Archmagi keep a firm hand on their subjects, assisted by their Perfected Warriors, chosen soldiers who through alchemical and magical arts are artificially imbued with Primal power.  These warriors allow Strossbourg to compete with the Divine champions of their hated rivals from Valydd.

The scholars of Strossbourg believe that Gods steal life-force from those near them and particularly those who follow them.  As a result religious practice is banned within the city, and the desire for divinity is seen as a result of ignorance, madness or malice.

The strict rule of the Archmagi and the rigorous testing required of those seeking to practice wizardry has resulted in a magical tradition far less prone to the mystical catastrophes regularly seen in Acryn.  As a result, whilst the Strossbourgians value the support of their new allies, they tend to view its citizens as reckless and unstable.
