Background Lore
Aldburg means "Old Fortress", so what would it be without a proper fortress?
It is VITAL to note that this keep complex is one of the EARLIEST settlements in the Riddermark. Therefore the design should reflect such in stature and appearance. This is NOT the Golden Hall of Edoras, this is its predecessor.
The keep itself would likely be composed of multiple individual structures within close proximity to one another. Given the age of the settlement, it would like be built out of primarily stone with some wood supports. Just remember, this is a fortress/castle and not just a hall.
Key Elements
The following is a suggested list of components to be included in a complete keep design. Please note that these are suggested but not necessarily required of you if you choose to omit one or more.
The current wool layout should give a sense of what is expected, however this is simply a rough outline for your personal inspiration.
- Great Hall
- Long Feast Hall
- Include Central Hearth
- Royal Seat at End
- Large Kitchen
- Storerooms
- Long Feast Hall
- Royal Living Quarters
- Meeting Room
- Passage to Dungeon (below keep)
- This will be built after pasting
- Courtyard
- Servant Quarters
- Barracks
- Training Area
- Archery Range (optional)
- Arsenal/Armory
- Forge
- Royal Stables
- Noble Houses (optional)
- Walls
