Population 7,903 (5,000 humans; 1,000 elves; 500 halflings; 500 dwarves; 400 half-elves; 400 gnomes; 103 other)
Zebbug is a walled farming community based around the nurturing of the olive groves the Kataniz family has been cultivating for generations. Olives are over seventy percent of all farming done in Zebbug, the remaining farming providing for the base needs of the city. Due to this Zebbug has been having to import more and more products to keep up with their growing population.
People of Note:
Lord Mayor Il-Kataniz is a well liked half-elf leader known for his generosity. During times of bad weather citizens of Zebbug have taken refuge in Kataniz castle. The family has also provided access to the family library to those citizens trying to learn to read.
Gamon the Green blesses the farms here and has kept the olives free from disease. He is well liked but locals often find his presence troubling as he has no sense of propriety and is always nude.

| Chomson |
Chomson is the second wealthiest man in Zebbug owning two general stores that serve the community. His payments are usually a percentage of a harvest, gems, or trade holdings elsewhere in Malta. Chomson is a human bachelor that enjoys taking his meals with different farms throughout the city. Relations are sometimes strained between Chomson and the Kataniz family due to sometimes conflicting interests. Overall Chomson is a well liked respected member of the community.
Borko the Dwarven Beer maker supplies all of Zebbug with the beer bearing his name, Borko Beer. His family owns a number of stills that provide liquors to trade with the rest of Malta. Borko would be wealthier if it were not for his penchant for gambling and financing sailors treasure hunters.
Kereka is the dwarven wife of Borko. She is also a priest of a dwarven deity that serves the cities dwarf population.

| Nebettawy |
 |
| Sciortino |
Nebettawy is a Egyptian woman that provides auguries and healing. Some of the locals won't go to her claiming she is a mind reader. She is the daughter of the Oracle Isetnoket.
Sciortino is a notorious Tiefling, having been convicted in the circle of judgment three different times. Each time he was sent to walk the plank (the local nick name for the walk through the archway) the portal flashed but did not take the Tiefling. In the eyes of the council of faiths Sciortino had been judged not guilty by the gods and his convictions were overturned.
Siggiewi is a catfolk that proclaims her profession as a tree sculptor. Several farms use her services which come with a recommendation from Gamon the Green

| Tal-Grazzja |
Tal-Grazzja operates a gaming emporium, Grazzja's Chance, where locals gather to smoke, drink, gamble, and play other games of entertainment. The emporium frequently hosts fights and attracts many recruiters for the Malta fight circuit. Grazzja's operates purely on gems or small merchant weight bars of silver and gold. Grazzja's Chance also offers training in linguistics as well as a variety of skill focus feats. A standard fee for training in a language or an approved skill focus is equal to the downtime costs plus a service for whomever you convince to train you.
Places of note in Zebbug:
Grazzja's Chance: See notes above. The structure is an old barn and corn silo.
Kataniz Castle: An impressive stone structure that dominates the center of the city, it too is walled.
Kbira Lake: Located on the west end of Zebbug, Kbira lake pierces the walls of Zebbug the only opening in the well crafted walls. The lake itself runs west continuing outside Zebbug. Its the cities primary water source.
