Rogueport

Rogueport is a pirate haven in the South Silver Sea and one of the 25 locations that comprise the Icarus Isles.

Description
Rogueport is unusual, in that it is not truly a natural island. Rather, the main bulk of the city is artificial in nature, being comprised of the hulls and rigging of countless sailing ships. As such, Rogueport can be an odd sight to visitors unfamiliar with the location. When sihouetted against the setting sun, it appears to be a monstrous amalgamation of masts and rigging, piled up with no apparent concern for the principles of engineering, towering precariously into the sky. In fact, the city's strange appearance merely belies the marvel of seamanship that it is; and in fact, the entire city was designed with expert purpose. The lower sections of the city are made of up an extensive docking and shipping area, where hundreds of ships load and unload questionable cargo every day. It is an incredibly busy area, with peddlers selling wares out of pushcarts and swarms of seagulls crisscrossing each other across the boardwalk. This area is known for being a haven for the more uncivilized citizens of the town, and muggers and pickpockets are a common sight. It may also go without saying that Rogueport has no official police force save for private guards hired by the more wealthy town merchants. Rows of cannons are placed upon strategic bulkheads around the city, as the large amounts of trade that occur upon its shores make a solid defense critical in Rogueport. The higher "decks" of Rogueport are made up of the wealthier merchants and official shops, with the "crow's nest" itself being the location of Fancy Mansion. The entire city can actually be controlled through a cabin in the main wing of the Mansion, and piloted through the water with surprising maneuverability.
