 **San Briaforte** is a bustling [[orgs:​Theodovans|Theodovan]] city of over nine-thousand (9,000) people. The birthplace of the [[orgs:Five Gods]] religion and still the center of this religion. This city began as a forte built along the [[atlas:​Addar River]] during the [[atlas:​Ancient Theodova#​Warring States]] period. The fort fell and the region was abandoned. When the Theodovan civilization rose again the fort was rebuilt and manned again. Around the fort San Briaforte took shape. **San Briaforte** is a bustling [[orgs:​Theodovans|Theodovan]] city of over nine-thousand (9,000) people.

 +The fort has three large ballistae that command the river around the city. No traffic can pass by the city without being subject to their taxes. San Briaforte is the largest city on the Addar River so most boats will dock along the banks or piers providing the city a focking fee as well.

 The river that flows along the eastern shore of the [[#Scio Bluffs]], the Addar is a shallow, but swift, river that eventually merges with the [[atlas:​Kerrik River]] before emptying into the [[atlas:​Serpente Sea]]. The river bottom is silty, but the land is rocky enough the silt is only a few inches deep. Safe enough to walk along it can be difficult to navigate during the warm months as there are plenty of large rocks the river flows around. The river that flows along the eastern shore of the [[#Scio Bluffs]], the Addar is a shallow, but swift, river that eventually merges with the [[atlas:​Kerrik River]] before emptying into the [[atlas:​Serpente Sea]].

 +In 207 AH the city constructed three partial dams on the river. Each one forced water to flow into a deep catch basin. The basins are kept clear of fish and provide the city a quick water source easier than digging wells through the limestone.
