− | '''Hamlets''' | + | '''Hamlets''' are small [[site]]s built by [[human]]s, forming the rural areas of human civilizations. Populations in hamlets are low, and peak near one hundred residents, in contrast to [[town]]s; thus, hamlets are comparable to dwarven [[hillock]]s. |
On the world map, {{Tile|æ|2:0}} and {{Tile|Æ|2:0}} indicate hamlets in [[hills]], while {{Tile|<nowiki>=</nowiki>|2:0}} and {{Tile|≡|2:0}} indicate hamlets in flat plains. {{Tile|Æ|1:0}}, {{Tile|Æ|1:1}} and {{Tile|Æ|3:1}} indicate hamlets situated on [[river]]s or streams. {{Tile|Æ|6:0}} are hamlets that have been abandoned or [[ruin|ruined]], though they don't display as this if they are on a river or stream. | On the world map, {{Tile|æ|2:0}} and {{Tile|Æ|2:0}} indicate hamlets in [[hills]], while {{Tile|<nowiki>=</nowiki>|2:0}} and {{Tile|≡|2:0}} indicate hamlets in flat plains. {{Tile|Æ|1:0}}, {{Tile|Æ|1:1}} and {{Tile|Æ|3:1}} indicate hamlets situated on [[river]]s or streams. {{Tile|Æ|6:0}} are hamlets that have been abandoned or [[ruin|ruined]], though they don't display as this if they are on a river or stream. | ||

Hamlets are composed of a [[mead hall]], a [[well]], groups of houses, and occasional small [[shrine]]s, all surrounded by immense fields of local [[crop]]s, meadows, and [[pasture]]s, with dirt [[road]]s running through the entire area. The mead hall houses the local governing body including the lord, other [[noble|nobility]], and [[hearthperson]]s, and is found near the edge of the hamlet. The well and houses are found near the center, usually by the side of a road. The houses often are inhabited by commoners, and may have a table and a cabinet containing leather clothing, but not beds. Bags containing the local crop plants may also be found in houses. | Hamlets are composed of a [[mead hall]], a [[well]], groups of houses, and occasional small [[shrine]]s, all surrounded by immense fields of local [[crop]]s, meadows, and [[pasture]]s, with dirt [[road]]s running through the entire area.

[[Stray]] tamed animals can often be found wandering throughout the hamlet; adventurers can claim these as [[pet]]s, pack animals, or [[mount]]s, depending on the type of animal (or kill and butcher the larger ones for meat and bones). Many of the plants in the surrounding fields can be {{k|g}}athered from, though not everything gathered will be edible, depending on the [[season]] and the adventurer's dietary needs. |
In the rare case that a human civilization is [[civilization#Struggling|nearing death]] and all towns have been destroyed, a hamlet may become the seat of power, and the mead hall will be additionally used as the throne of the law-maker. | In the rare case that a human civilization is [[civilization#Struggling|nearing death]] and all towns have been destroyed, a hamlet may become the seat of power, and the mead hall will be additionally used as the throne of the law-maker. | ||
