Rothga is a human city-state and capitol of the Theocracy ruled by the decadent priesthood of Set, where giant constrictors freely roam the cobblestone streets between the mud brick huts at night. Visitors are allowed only in the port districts of West Port and South Fort, past these areas there is no return.
Most of the population (70%) are slaves of various human races and toil endlessly in vast goverment owned fields of grain, a few hundred are craftsmen and sailors. When slaves die they are animated and put to work in stone quarries to the south. The rest of the population(25%) have light brown skin, straight black hair and are poor fishermen whos mud brick hovels line the rivers and coast.
The priesthood (5% of the population) rules through terror and the use of nightmarish creatures (giant fiendish snakes of all sorts) and on the hard work of their slaves, most adventurers from here never return, especially since unless they were clerics they weren't allowed to leave in the first place. Wizards of Rothga can freely cross class as monks and clerics of Set are not usually suitable as PCs. It is rumored that the high priest of Set is a half Marsh Dragon half constrictor naga
South Fort and West Port are human cities under the Theocracy of Rothga. Both places have small but powerful merchant families in place of Priests of Set and are to afraid to dispute their rule. The penalty of any crime is slavery and most of the slaves that are destined for trade are from these places, still a much better fate than if in the capitol of Rothga.
West Port has skilled ship wrights who build large black galleys with 6 banks of oars that fly a green snake biting its tail on a white field on its top mast when trading on the the Kessan Sea.
South Fort is known for its addicting blend of strong grain alcohol and the lotus flower producing effects ranging from euphoria to eternal nightmare filled sleep.
