The Free Cities of Hidalgo

Hidalgo

The Capital Citystate of the Free Cities of Hidalgo. A thriving port town that opens to the Scardian Ocean, and the one time port city of 'New Iberia' till the oppressed Mocca Tribes kicked the Iberian Conquistadors out of their land in a bloody revolution. The city, though at a glance unimpressive compared to places like Ithteca, Beijio or even Danton City, is still a thriving town steeped in natural beauty and a mix of Iberian and Moccahian culture.

Lobos

A village further inland and close to Jemial City. A town centered around a fortress once used by the Iberian Conquistadors before the Moccahian people overthrew them. It has a reputation for 'unsavory' individuals, and is a great place to slip away if one is running away from the Gunslinger Association or other enforcers of the law...

Santa Cabeza

Another port city formerly of the Iberian Empire. Further up the coast from Hidalgo, on the coastline leading up to the Ithteca Mountain Chain, this village is another port of entry to Gailden other than Ithteca's Elevator Harbor, Hidalgo, Hara Fishing Village, and Beijio Harbor to name a few. Its a fishing community these days, and provider of supplies to Jemial City 50 miles south of Santa Cabeza.

SOL

The Village of SOL is a relatively new settlement to join the Free Cities of Hidalgo. The village gets its name not for the Iberian name for 'Sun' instead, an acronym made by the founders of the village looking for precious metals. After several years with no name, (and no luck in their mining efforts), they called the name 'S.O.L'- S*** Outta Luck!

Rocky Valley

A small village near the rocky Guardian Mountains. Nothing really to note of this small, desert town other than 'Rocky' the eponymous name of the village taken from its only watering hole. The village grew around this watering hole over time.It was managed by a Dwarf for a time, who tried to evoke the 'Spirits of Rolan', but never profited from the venture. An unknown individual later picked it up instead, offering drinks to wandering adventurers, Gunslingers, bandits, and anyone else unfortunate enough to end up in this part of the arid Gailden Wastes. The Dwarf's unique pumps and technology draws up spring water found deep in the earth, providing the bar in the middle of nowhere an unlimited supply of fresh, clean water that is perfect to sate the thirst on its own or to water down imported beer with little notice...

Hamlet of Voshnir

A small... odd town that is located somewhere between Danton City and Jemial City; located near the edge of the Galideno Desert. Its inhabitants are odd, xenophobic folk and they don't take well to outsiders. The Gunslinger, Leland McKelly, in 2639 discovered the city had been under the influence of a demonic parasite that came from the town's contaminated and tainted water supply which gave off an eerie, purple color and strong odor. Leland cleared out the inhabitants of the town alongside Barduwulf Garamonde, and Izuna Kurogasa. The town was supposedly taken over by the Gunslinger Association afterwards, who investigated its mysterious contagion before Tenik rolled in. However, it seems this ghost town has gotten a second wind... "== TILE TWINKLE!!!" *Chainsaw sounds*

Costa Dos Lunas

A final port city in the Hidalgo Free Cities confederation. Located on the Dos Lunas river that spills into the Scardian Ocean on the southern side of the Guardian Mountain Chain further south and in the low elevation of desert valley that makes up this lonely settlement that is the farthest from the others in the Free Cities. A small, former Iberian trading port that would have lead into the Gailden Prairies before the destruction of Galideno City of which it narrowly survived from. Hugging the canyon walls of Ithteca's Guardian Mountains to its north, and the former time altering cursed desert to its south, Costa Dos Lunas stands as a timeless survivor and its 'between a rock and a hard place' mentality that's been in place since 2289.
