“Minos doesn’t need to impress you. It’s still standing, and so is everyone in it — that’s the whole pitch.”
— a local, unbothered

Minos

Minos is Irrupt’s oldest Adventure City — a working port town, more weathered than grand, but every civic feature a new arrival actually needs is here and running: a bank, a constable who’ll buy the heads off anything you’ve killed, an inn with rooms to rent, a tavern serving drink, a bakery, a general store, and a chapel where the wounded can be tended. Most new characters open their eyes somewhere near it.

Beyond the essentials, Minos has grown its own trades over time: an armorer and blacksmith for gear, a fishmonger working the waterfront, a lumberyard buying timber, and a farmer selling produce. A handful of houses around town are available to buy outright, and a graveyard sits just outside the walls.

Roads run out from Minos toward two pillager strongholds — one along the jungle road to the west, another further out toward Crowbere — for anyone looking for a fight and a bounty.

One quirk worth knowing: Minos deals in copper tools, not iron — the local blacksmith never took to the harder metal.
