Lore

Location

Cogwheel is located in the southern hemisphere of Mewmoia. Many of the territory's factories were previously owned by The Metropolis, although some Metro-owned properties remain.

Culture

Cogwheel catfolk are expert crafters and are well known for creation of materials such as brick, steel, and steam engines. The Cogwheel workers care deeply about unionization, and their factories ("indie factories") are driven by a love for their craft and wish to make lives for catfolk easier. Many Cogwheel cats feel a desire to invent and tinker, but are limited by the demands for materials and exports by other Boroughs. Their free time is valuable and drives their wishes to fight for workers' rights.

Cogwheel has contributed many technological advances and hosts many brilliant catfolk, the most important being steam-powered magic. Coal-mining used to be commonplace, with stoked fire and smoke used to power machinery. The Cogwheel cats saw the rise of the magic of fire, which was much cleaner and allowed them to harness steam.

This fire magic is very important to Cogwheel, and their meals and cozy homes have been compared to the likes of Harvest's. Another aspect that Cogwheel shares with Harvest is that of unity. Altruism is very common among Cogwheel catfolk, and it is considered to be the highest duty of cats to lend help when needed.

Tensions

There are tensions between the workers of Cogwheel and The Metropolis. Despite this, there is still a sense of camaraderie among the workers in the factories.
