Founding of Mosswell
Mosswell was founded in the early 1700s, as a response to the Salem Witch Trials and the growing distrust regarding the supernatural. The official paperwork lists one Henry Gentson, but casual documents note the real founder as one 'Anjeana Derushe'. Soon, supernatural beings from all over started to seek refuge in the town. Although sanctuary cities were not a thing yet, Mosswell's laws protected any and all species of being, and anyone who was against the supernatural and tried to harm them were immediately removed from the town.
In 1863, after the end of the Civil War, official documents were updated to recognize one 'Labelle Derushe' as town mayor. Since then, the Derushe family continued leading the town. Elections are held every few years, but the residents of Mosswell always unanimously vote to keep the current Derushe as mayor. -
Population
The town of Mosswell has a population of roughly 8,000 people, and is a mixture of regular humans and supernatural beings. -
About Mosswell
Mosswell is locally-focused and eco-friendly. There are no chain stores/restaurants/etc. within Mosswell, everything is locally owned and operated. They will import goods from within other areas of the state, but all of their shops are locally run.
The local forest is watched over by forest spirits. The town of Mosswell has a deal with the forest spirits to allow their use of the forest. However, this means respect of nature is of utmost importance, and there is no tolerance for littering or lack of fire safety.
Please note: In this continuity, the beliefs and religions of various gods and deities do exist. However, those gods and deities do not actually exist. So demonic creatures or angelic creatures are just supernatural beings, if someone prays to a deity for help the result would just be luck/fate and not actually influenced by the deity, etc. -
