[QUOTE="evilgamer13, post: 4020318, member: 42362"] I thought I'd throw in one of the city's from a game I was in; the city of the air baron was a city whose layout was actually planed by a ruler who was far longer lived then the primary human population. The air baron was also paranoid to the point that it would be considered a derangement in most people (this was in Palladium Fantasy and he was a Changeling though his persona was that of an Elf so no one would notice the life span). The city was arranged as a cerise of concentric circles, the city blocks were only one house wide but were quite long and the walls facing the outside of the city only had arrow slits for windows and the flat roofs had battlements, conversely the interior side of the house were where the doors were placed and had normal windows, the buildings were required to have stone exteriors. The districts of the city were divided up by the sort of large stone walls that never actually surrounded real city's but are a staple of fantasy literature, the city was also divided in half by a river that split into two around a large rocky outcropping where the keep was built.
