People having the freedom to choose their own path in life.  Since the arrival of the Avatar-Kings, the people have suffered and been reduced to little more than slaves, forced to build the massive temples for the New Gods and fight in their endless wars.  Stories also tell of hidden cashes of Old God magic, when order was a thing. Alamouda is a town controlled by the great and powerful God Hextor. His avatar is far from here in Hexhold, and legends say he has grown 6 arms and can wield 6 weapons.Hextor is not REALLY at war right now, or at least this is as close as he gets. His Paladins are training and amassing though because a few leagues east of Alamouda is the walled city of Testaur.Testaur is on the border with both the great and powerful god Kord and his domain, and unclaimed 'free' lands. Kord is ALSO amassing troops waiting for the day that the war will heat up once more.Alamouda has a mine that has adamantine and diamonds within it, almost 2 hours south where there is a small camp where miners stay when working. It also has both orchards and farms to the north less than half an hour. Both of those give 70% of what they produce to the Lord Hextor. the 30% they have left they sell to people in and around the town at a HUGE mark up.to the west almost a half days ride is a mountain that has been cut in half both vertical and horizontally. on top of the one of the mesa made from the mountain is a training facility for Paladins and Knights of Hextor on top the other is the school for the clerics of Hextor. The Bridge that connects them is made of a strange gold metal.It is not unheard of for clerics and paladins to get long weekends and even whole 2 weeks off of training and come into Alamouda to blow off steam.Alamouda has two 'major' casters in town other than the clerics that rule it as a theocracy. A Tiefling 'wizard' named Valen that lives in a crooked grey tower on the outskirts of town and sells alchemical mixtures. and the retired solder of Baccob elven wizard Alana Brightblade who runs the local library with a few acolytes and apprentices.Alamouda is run by 3 corrupt "high priests and priestesses" that are in charge of tax collecting and keeping the streets safe. They have hired a half orc name Tanner to keep the piece but he is the worst monster in town.Active Major Deities:Baccob Over Deity Knowledge and learning Erythnul Hate Envy MaliceGrumish  Conquest survivalHextor War discord TyrannyKord  Strength brawling and courageNerull Death Darkness MurderOlidammara Music wine revels roguesPelor Burning HateWee Jas Magic death vanityActive Minor Deities:Celestian of the starsObad-hai of natureIncabulous of plaugesInactive Deities:CuthbertEhlonnaPholtusZagygDead Deities:HeronousTrithereonVecna*Wastri[SPOILER="*"]Vecna the secret god (Most think him dead, one of 5 gods killed in the last 800+ years, but he was the worst, he didn't come to earth… the others teamed up forced him to earth and ripped his mind body and soul apart, leaving only 3 small parts holding small bits of his divinity in reality it was all part of the plan... more or less. Vecna is an undead god now, a spirit that can possess any dead body and make it an avatar)  (Duon-eel the Thrice Slain, Falazure the black, Luthic the Blood Moon Witch, and Kas the Vampire are all Exarchs)[/SPOILER]</blockquote>
