+Military/Government:   The property owners in town form the Town Assembly, who elect a Master of the Town to run the court, collect tolls and other taxes, maintain public buildings and the town walls.   He also nominates candidates for the Town Marshal, who must be approved by the 4 lords of the surrounding castles, in order to assure the neutrality of the town in the struggles of these lords.
+The current Master is Sargon Wells,  who owns 3 large warehouses in town to cater to the caravan trade.   He is scrupulous in business and very private, doing town business only when necessary.
+The current Town Marshal,  Sir Theobaldo of Gorn, on the other hand is a galloping jerk, his band of 20 knights bully and extort everyone they can.   He realizes that he must keep up the town's neutrality toward the lords, but otherwise does as he pleases.   He has 40 foot soldiers to patrol the walls and can call up several hundred townsmen to repel an attack.   The remaining 40 soldiers in town work as guards for various businesses.
 **Temple of Lakshmi**  High Priestess Rosamund runs this temple, and the attached casino.   Travelers, bandits and all who crave good luck flock here.
