Riverbank

Riverbank was the capital of Velincant that held the Thegn's Hall.

History
Riverbank was built by Wacan, the first thegn, in the region of Norrodath. Riverbank has been the seat of power for the thegndom from the day it was built and no conflict has ever changed that. Surprisingly, Riverbank has not seen much history unfurl, save the crown of Brigard 'the Usurper'.

Geography
Riverbank was built on the step banks of the Velincant where the ground flattens. Surrounding it was either rising foothills or the sturdy stone wall of the pedestal for the Thegn's Hall. The river was of key importance and it provided most of the wealthy traders that bought their goods from the many expensive workshops in the town.

Etymology
Riverbank is the Imperial name for the town but the native name for it is Burnbund, meaning "River Bank".
