 If you were a newcomer about to enter the Township a creaky sign would greet you with the word 'Arcadil' spread across its wooden frame in bold black letters. It's not a very large community, but quite a cozy one that rests at the bottom of Cania Valley. The valley itself is quite peaceful with a river running along its center, the north side of its slanted walls lead to the Tohopka Forest that seems to circle around the valley ridges to the cliff wall that towers at the south; it could almost seem as if the forest itself is protecting the outside world from the view of the valley, one glancing over the cliff wall would see, however, just how thick the forest is. To the east the valley walls close; though the river seems to gush into a dark cave, one no villagers would dare to tread into. At the west end of the valley a dirt road leads out to further towns. Arcadil's streets all branch off from the center point of the town square, which holds a fountain and many benches for sitting; occasionally a peddler will come and sell his goods here. There are five main buildings; Town hall, The Sheriff Station, The Library, Doctor's House, and the Tohopka Nursery. Most of the architecture in the town is grey or brown brick, the townhouses also have a mix of wood. All merchant activity seems to be done by travellers and caravans.

Events and Changes A light snowfall decorates the courts and yards of Arcadil; a cold breeze from the north brushes through the forest leaves and falls to dwell along the valley that cradles the township. Strings of lights line the streets like specked stars; the shrill laughter of children twines with the winds as snow fights and festive snowmen are built.

Township Jobs Because Arcadil is both a Tohopka and Human settlement there are a few careers open to be role played by Tohopka owners. These are simply to help your character's backstory and give the township a little more realism. The carreers are limited though more may be opened as more citizens join the township. If you would like one of the following careers for your backstory and roleplay in the township, PM Sporka an RP example of how your character would react when approached on a normal workday.
Current jobs available: Doctor Librarian Sheriff Deputy Town Guard Daycare manager

*The air was chilly even with the sun out. A young girl walked through the front gates of the town wrapped in a woolen cloak, a multi colored egg wrapped in an equally woolen wrap. The girl looked around around the snow covered buildings wondering where she had wandered into. Shifing the egg in her arms around a bit she dusts off a seat and sits down wondering where everyone was. Most likely inside where she should be, but it was too beauiful outside to remain inside all day.* "What a beautiful day." She sighed leaning back a little and looks you toward the sky, not yet noticing the goings ones around the town. She was just overwelmed with how this season made her feel. Winter was her favorite season and at times she wished it was winter all the time. Looking back down at the egg she held it close so that it wouldn't get cold, not knowing if it would die if left in the cold too long. But it was a thought she wished not to think about at all.*

As Chaenyn and Doreyn pranced back into town they saw a new and unfamiliar person, sitting on a bench by the fountain. Doreyn nudged Chae in curiosity wondering who it was, and what exactly they were hiding from them. Chaenyn kneeled down to Doreyn and spoke quietly to him "I don't think she is hiding anything Doreyn, I think she's just new here, She may have a tohopka egg, that shes keeping warm. It was fall when you were born, so it wasn't as hard to keep you warm, but this is where I first sat when I came here with your egg. Com'on lets go meet her Doreyn!" Chaenyn got up and she slowly walked with Doreyn over towards the girl. "Hello?" she said quietly. "My name is Chaenyn, and this is my Tohopka Doreyn, may I ask your name?"

Estelle wandered into the small town in the valley, walking along the icy cold stream. She'd found that out earlier when she'd foolishly tried to wash the mud off her arms from when she picked up the clam shell that had been left outside her house. Looking around, she strocked the surface of the shell gently, wondering what was so important that it was left outside her doorstep. Carefully, she withdrew a blanket from a bag that rested on her side and wrapped the thing in it, wanting to keep whatever it was warm in the cold. Glancing around, she noticed the others gathering up. Listening closely, she heard one of the girls say her name was Chaenyn.

*Kesmi looked up toward the one that spoke to her as she craddled her new egg close keeping it warm within the woolen wrap.* "HI, My name's Kesmi, It's nise to meet you and your companion. I too will have one as soon as my egg hatchs." *She pulled back a fold of the wrap to reveal the multi-colored egg, but soon covers it again.* "I've already named it Shimmer, because of its Shell." She explained and slid over so that Chaenyn could sit down too. "I'm new here so I don't know many people, really I'm quite shy actually. But I will get over it." *Truely she didn't know what else to say. She looked over at Chaenyn and Doreyn with awe that the Tohopka looked quite cute. She only hoped that Shimmer woudl be just as cute too.*

A girl with purple hair walked into town, looking around quizzically, almost scared. She held her blue egg close to her chest, wrapped in a small black coat. She was new, and was waiting for her Tohopka to hatch. She had not yet met anyone in town, and was oddly optimistic and excited. Jade walked through the towns and up to Town Hall, where a celebration seemed to be going on. She sat in the snow and hugged her egg lovingly. "Don't worry Lichenair, we'll be able to play with the other soon... Just a few more days... just a few..." She smiled and watched everyone through the window.

*Kesmi looked up as she shifted the weight of her egg around and looked toward the girl that was sitting in the snow. Tilting her head to the side she wondered what she was doing. Certainly it must have been sitting there in the snow. Too cold for many people too like. Blinking she turned her attention back to her own egg. she thought she had felt it shiver, if eggs could shiver that is. Unwraping her egg from the woolen wrap she studied the colors and designs on the shell. It looked as though it were painted in an unknown universe. With white streaks that repersented shooking stars. Placing the egg in her lap, Kesmi proceded to rewrap the egg so that it may stay warmer. All the while Kesmi started to hum something from her past. Most likely a lulla-by.*
