Ountsy is a Free City on the coast of the former Great Kingdom and founding member of the Solnor Compact.
History
Once a fief of Rel Astra during the days of the Great Kingdom of Aerdy, The city became independent when the kingdom collapsed after the disappearance of Ivid V at the end of the Greyhawk Wars. Despite the rivalry between the city and Rel Astra hey quickly joined the Solnor Compact, recognizing the need for mutual protection.
Geography
The city of Ountsy is located on the coast of the Solnor Ocean, equidistant between Rel Astra and the Free City of Roland. The Trine of Ountsy claims very little territory, mostly just chunks of the Lone Heath. This positioning led Ountsy to becoming a hub for trade.

Government
The city of Ountsy is run by Lady Emmara of House Garasteth, (Born to House Darmen, but having renounced her allegiance to them). Her official title is Trine of Ountsy, an ancient title with astrological connotations. She also holds the title of Lord High Mayoress. She came into power after the death of her husband in 570 CY. She, like most rulers of Ountsy previously, seeks the advice of the astrologers and diviners of the College of Divination, her most trusted advisor being Celandenn, Lady Warden of the College and Priestess of Wee Jas.
Another notable figure in the city is Theodenn Semmer, who is head of the Ountsy military, and has the title of Supreme Phalangist. He took his position before Lady Emmera came to power. He at first didn't like her but warmed up to her as she made sure that his both he and his troops were well paid.
Arcane Magic is handled by the Court Mage Svenser and his group apprentices. One of the flaws of Ountsy is the fact that any high scholarship, with the exception of the College of Divination is seen as frivolous and useless and interest in the academic is shamed out of the vast majority of the population in their youth. This means that there are no wizards trained domestically and they have to be brought in from elsewhere. Lady Emmara is very careful to ensure that Svenser and apprentices have everything they need to guarantee their loyalty.
