Cáliz: A Canal City of Wine and Trade
Board
Cáliz is a port city of canals and murky water, rich and dirty at the same time. It lives on wine and trade: merchants toast their deals at the Copa Colmada, the temple of the god of wine and commerce, so that they “overflow”, and every debt in the city ends up written down in the Casa de Cuentas. The Vendimia still fills the streets once a year, but the city has been in decline for a long time and you can see it in the abandoned warehouses and the broken bridges.
This is the whole city I built for my homebrew campaign: the canal districts, the harbor with its merchant ships, the shipyards, the walls with the city gate and the forest beyond them, and the sewers running under the streets. Some places worth a visit: the Gallo Plateado tavern (the real deals happen in the back room), the Aduana de Mendoza at the port, La Marea Baja, the boarding house where foreigners stay and where the debt slate hangs, the Dispensario de la Sal, Las Cubas refinery and the old clock tower in ruins. Below the canals there is something else, I’ll let you find it.
Special thanks to Lemurian_Settler (Dustdown): the houses of Cáliz started as Lemurian’s houses, which I then modified. Lemurian is a great creator, so go check out the rest of the work if you don’t know it yet.
