Morcera is the largest city within the [[Forticia|Kingdom of Forticia]] and capital of the [[Morcera Earldom]] province. It is a bustling port city and one of the most lawless and chaotic places within [[Auseka]].

== The Lawless of Morcera ==

Only about a third of Morcera can be said to be safe and governed, with militia keeping the peace and normal business working as they do in other cities.

The majority of districts is in various states of anarchy, with militia visible occasionally and at best on the main roads. Several districts are entirely abandoned by the militia. Here, local gangs and crime bosses rule and have created their own sets of "laws". A few of those places are in surprisingly good condition, with even a semblance of municipal services in place. Other places are little more than slums fought over by street gangs.

Combined with the many trade routes passing through the city, Morcera is a haven for smugglers and illegal goods of all kinds and the saying goes that if you can't find it in Morcera, it doesn't exist.
