Argemone is a castle-town built mostly by Pippenger and SirTashingdon in January 2016. Porkington, ae0, and members of Orion's team lived there as well. It is in the general vicinity of spawn, sitting at roughly ten thousand meters. Argemone was a part of The Principate.

History

Argemone was founded early in 2016, during the Great War between The Principate and the Blue Orchid Cult.

Not long after its completion, Argemone was abandoned, not because it was discovered, but because The Principate collapsed and Pippenger left the server. The base has sat largely unused, but also ungriefed, ever since then.

Layout

Argemone is a castle town, comprised of a wide, relatively low square outer wall holding farms and small houses, and within that, a taller, circular wall with round towers. In the innermost section of town is the central tower, as well as many functional buildings such as a library and a storehouse.

Outer Walls

The city is protected by outer walls and a locked gate. In the grassy areas between the outer and inner walls, there are several buildings.

Farm House

A small house to store chicken products.

Water Gate

A small back gate and dock.

Windmill

Argemone gets 90% of its energy from renewable resources such as wind power (it actually doesn't).

Villager Breeder

Most of the villagers are not allowed into the town, and are instead kept in a box out behind the outer walls.

Katrina's House

A house that Katrina and Orion formerly lived in.

Church

A church mainly meant for decoration, but also for housing a few religious villagers.
