Castle Caelos

Castle Caelos is a Caelish settlement located between Caelos pass, the only entryway into the Outer Territories. Castle Caelos acts as the wall that guards the Outer Territories and as such is the third best defended Caelish settlement. Any who wish to enter the Outer and Inner Territories must enter through here or they may take a boat and dock at either Cael's Landing or Ravenna.

Currently, the castle is garrisoned with 5000 soldiers, all well trained and well armed. The castle commander also acts as the Commander of the Border Forces and is ranked as Caelum's Southern Guardian. Currently, the Castle Commander is the Commodore Tala Lasander.

Settlement Description
Castle Caelos is a large fortress nestled between the middle of two large hill ranges that are steep and high. The hills are incredibly treacherous and difficult to traverse. In the middle is a large clearing where Castle Caelos stands. Castle Caelos is a formidable construct with tall and broad walls and a portcullis made of two layers. The first layer is titanium (made to resistant to acid and other melting chemicals) and the next is steel. The portcullis was designed in mind to be nigh indestructible (the titanium being resistant to troll acid and the steel being resistant to most blunt force damage). Built inside the walls are square holes that are completely dark inside (Inside the hole is a cannon) there are many holes and are layered in three layers, top, middle and the bottom most areas. Built on top of the walls are very large cannons and a couple of trebuchets. There are also guards on station at all times watching the nearby environment.
