History
The Pitsplayers who would eventually become the Pitish originally came from a completely frozen up biome, but peopleafter havesky migratedbasing for 3 nights the Participant-22 led a large group of migrants out of the tundra to aseek warmer land.lands.

Participant-22 immediately set out on directing the early Pitish towards digging pits to grow.secure farm animals, expanding the sky base and securing large amounts of kelp to dry out on campfires as an early game food source. These early time's were fraught with constant deaths, but due to the early game sheep herd a few "Elite" Pitish were able to secure respawn points. Many of these daring strikes were personally led by Participant-22 due to him having claimed the first bed. They used their access to respawning to clear away mobs after the night to allow the other Pitish to develop the lands around the sky base.
By session 2 construction of the High Tower that would later be dubbed the "Citadelle" began, and slowly the Pitish began improving the area. Walls were put up and the farmers began constructing the Grand Terraces by the river.
Economy
Pitsberg has a centralized command economy, with most major economic decisions on resource allocation being ultimately decided by the ruling monarch. Resources are produced directly in support of major operations such as construction and gear for miners. All resources are shared on an as needed basis as everyone contributes to the wellbeing of the settlement. The only market interactions occur through foreign trade and with occasional passersby.
The farmers keep a terrace farm ofwheat wheaton stone terraces along the riverside, which feeds sheep and cows. Atop there is a Sugarcane Farm. Enough food is produced to sustain Pitsberg's burgeoning population without the need for rationing. Builders are constantly constructing additions and reinforcing the growing settlement preventing the constant onslaught of mobs from assailing it's inhabitants.
