Joppah (City)

Joppah is a fictional city in the World of Thera campaign setting.

Joppah is a thriving city in the Duroy province of Calpurnen. The city is on the shores the Rekksen River to the north and Sorrow Lake to the west, and this makes it a uniquely vital point for the province's commerce. Much of the city revolves around trade, bringing resources into the province while exporting food and lumber resources throughout the provinces adjacent to Sorrow Lake.

Most of Joppah is a series of sprawling merchant districts and temporary housing for the sailors, merchants, farmers, and traders who are only in the city for their business.

Above this merchant sprawl is Low Town, where the city's permanent residents live. Low Town also has a large Sin District where all manners of vices can be met.

Rising above all of this is a small High Town, where it is rumored that the city's wealthy and powerful live in a luxurious gated community.

Joppah has a large and influential temple dedicated to the law god Pallas. These priests serve as arbiters, judges, and advocates in a city fueled by trade agreements. This temple also served as the home to the Order of the Living Saint, a sect of the Church dedicated to the teachings of the prophet Davish.
