Editing Tiji, Latvia (section)

==Tiji Features==

===Size===
The fortress's borders extend about 2 miles in every direction from the center. For convenience's sake, it is said to have an area of 16 square miles. Since the original town was built "in the middle of nowhere," 40+ miles from the nearest human dwelling, where the forest is thick and omnipresent, there is little chance of encountering a non-Tiji resident if you wander outside the walls. This is partly due to the fact that you will be captured and skinned by SuperGrues long before you make it to the next town, if you are traveling on foot.

===Walls===
The walls of Tiji have been under near-continuous construction and maintenance for close to two years. Built at first out of piles of junk and felled trees, the current outer wall is composed almost entirely of stone, 4 stories tall at the highest. A single entrance exists in the Northwest, barred by a raised drawbridge during most of the day. This bridge is rigged with multiple counterweights to bring it down easy, but a quick-release system enables it to smash anything in its path into dust.

===Resources===
Tiji contains extensive natural (and unnatural) resources, which were left mostly untouched during the town's short history before the collapse of the USSR. Trees are the most obvious and most visible resource, but they are quite a minor feature compared to what exists underground.

====Old Soviet Equipment====
Since the town was rather quickly abandoned, a great amount of Soviet machinery can be found pretty much everywhere, rusting in piles all over the forest. The items available range from rifles and combat knives to APCs and Tanks, though the latter are understandably more rare. It's highly unlikely for anything found in the forest to be operable, but certain durable, well-built weapons, like land mines, can still be used.

====Promethium====
Certain areas of ground have been contaminated by experiments the fa/tg/uys dare not fathom. Around these areas nothing grows, and no animal, not even a bee, will cross a contaminated black patch. In these locations, the sticky, pitch-black, tar-like substance Promethium seeps up out of the ground, and can easily be gathered with the application of suction. Promethium is extremely flammable and incredibly hard to remove from skin or clothing. It serves as both fuel and siege weapon, carried by all that venture outside the walls in "napalm cocktail" form, trapped in a small glass bottle that is thrown like a grenade.

===The Underground===
An enormous system of subterranean tunnels was already present beneath Tiji when the first fa/tg/uy reclamation party arrived. At first they were thought to be of Soviet origin, but further inspection proved that they were not. The engravings were particularly informative. Specifically, the images of violent rape, dismemberment, and living ships that transcend space and time to bring back demons.

===Dice Alley===
A long, narrow street sandwiched between two rows of dwellings, Dice Alley is a trader's haven for anyone needing a random or not-so-random number generator. Lines of poorly-built shops stand pressed up against the Alley's houses, the neckbeards within presenting their wares to the denizens of the town. All manner of dice can be found there, from the wood or bone-carved d6, to the expensive, shining metal d100.
