Quilpopolis

 

The home city of the Quilp. It is a marvelous city situated near Mount Wor, the vicious mountain whose name fails to communicate the Quilps' friendliness. It is primarily made of stone, the most readily available material, as well as whatever materials they can export.

 

Visitors are freely welcome to Quilpopolis, provided they don't raise a ruckus and respect the law, and also don't especially mind the quirks of their culture: their pacifism, their living gods who are stuck firmly in the middle-class running shops of various popularities, and their insistance that nobody attempts to order Beef or milk at the resturaunts.

 

The city is in remarkably good repair, given its age; many tip a wink toward Quilpo and his highly-desirable monstrous rampages. The Quilp have attempted to build the city of their dreams, where the streets are paved with money and the architecture thrills the heart. Quilpish architecture favors texture and sound over sight, because so many Quilp are blind.

 

Non-Quilp are advised to stay away from the leather-making district, but highly advised to wear protective footwear before venturing out to feel the many sights of Quilpopolis. In fact, no trip to Quilpopolis can be considered complete without purchasing a pair of fine Quilpish leather shoes, slaughtering a cow in the slaughter district, sampling some Stingy Quilp Cheese, gathering some Quilder from the streets, and of course visiting Quilper's Memorial Healing Hospice.

 

In the center there is a statue of what could be concieved as a Quilp, but comes out looking a little more like a donkey with the face of a crab. People suspect that due to the quilps blindness it was just a mistake while trying to make a statue, however some people say that some Quilp may indeed worship a diety with the face of a crab. To this day, no one quite remembers, or especially cares; so say the Quilp, "If it ain't Quilpma, it ain't worth jack," often loudly and in earshot of their other gods.
