Ligonian Centerplace

The Ligonian Centerplace, an imposing structure overlooking a village, was the place were the ruler of Ligon II resided.

The Centerplace was located on the northern hemisphere of the planet, close to an ocean.

Characterized by a large tower in the center of the structure, with a large open courtyard, and a small fountain in the center. The ruler's throne was located on one end of the courtyard, a large wall of hand-held weapons, including crossbows and spears, was located on the other side. Two sentries were often standing guard next to two giant gongs, which were located close to the fountain.

A fighting range consisting of different levels of steps, lights and metal rods could be installed in the middle of the Centerplace. Several seats were arranged around the fighting range for spectators to attend the ceremony.

The Centerplace was adorned with many different plants and the characteristic, hexagonal shape of the Ligonian logo was present everywhere, including doors and the weapon wall.
