Irbi

Welcome to Irbi

In the arid expanse of scrubland where water is more precious than gold, Irbi stands as an oasis of life and transient community. Founded around a reliable well, the town has grown to feature three public wells, with the affluent boasting private ones. The landscape is dotted with temporary dwellings, like a patchwork quilt of nomadic lives. Hunters and gatherers come and go with the seasons, their footprints in the sand the only evidence of their fleeting presence. Yet, amidst this ever-changing tapestry, one constant remains: the enigmatic leader who ensures that Irbi's fragile peace is never broken.

Chieftain

Chieftain Kwame Nia, a Human male, is a retired adventurer whose very name commands respect—and a touch of fear. His eyes are windows to a past that few dare to inquire about, and his demeanor is that of a man who has faced death and returned unbroken. Widowed and carrying the weight of that loss like an invisible cloak, Kwame is a solitary figure, yet never alone.

Associates

His inner circle consists of two trusted associates:

  1. Varook, a male Lizardfolk, who serves as his eyes and ears among the nomadic tribes.
  2. Yara, a female Tiefling warrior, who is his strong arm in maintaining law and order.

Business

Despite its transient nature, Irbi has three major businesses that serve as its economic backbone:

Nia's Water Reserve

  • Run by: Kwame Nia himself, the Human male Chieftain
  • Business: Manages the public wells and sells water to travelers and residents alike.

Nomad's Rest

  • Run by: Elara, a resourceful female Human
  • Business: Provides temporary housing for the nomadic people, complete with basic amenities.

Season's Bounty

  • Run by: Faelar, an inventive male Gnome
  • Business: A marketplace that buys and sells the produce gathered by the seasonal hunters and gatherers.

In Irbi, the ebb and flow of life are dictated by the scarcity of water and the abundance of freedom. It's a place where everyone is a passerby, yet the shadow of a formidable leader ensures that peace is the one thing that remains constant.
