Tusk is the capital of Greater Tusk, an independent City State (within Brevoy), and Southern Region's only city. On the banks of Tuskwater Lake, it serves as the main trading hub for the region with trade links To Restov, Jovvox, and Mivon. Regionally, Tusk is connected to Wyvern Bridge, Ringbridge, and Newgate by highways, which give easy access to a network of local and secondary trade routes.

It is surrounded by farms, hamlets and the estates of the wealthier members of the community. Silverton, Barleyboro, The Roost and Reedham are all part of Greater Tusk, and are connected to the city by the Yitis ferry service.

The city is the commercial, religious and administrative centre of the city state, and very much of a cultural melting pot. It boasts the Cathedral of Abadar, a large Pharasmin Abbey and the headquarters of the Southern Chapter of the Brevic Knights. V&A Shipping, Tusk's main merchant house, supplemented by a number of other merchant houses, provide land and waterborne transport and movement across a wide area.

The city is well defended, with three concentric walls and many patrol boats keeping their coastline safe.

The inner city, defended by a great wall, host the administrative, merchant and port districts of the city. It is fully paved and has drains throughout, and emphasizes the importance the city places on its core functions.

• The Central District has the main administrative and religious buildings, along with Tusk Castle, home to the military and the last refuge, should the city fall to attack.
• Port Henry is home to V&A's wharf and warehouses, as well as providing basic support services for the ship's crews and the dockworkers, the high class brothel and Alchemist's workshop are, perhaps, of particular interest.
