Humble Beginnings
Founded in the Westerosi-Valardom, it began as a collection of small farmsteads, and unofficial home of the Vulpur-Lycan race. Not much would happen for a few years after it's founding.

As the Westerosi Reign was in full swing, and the Serrona Defense Accords were born, Lycaon became host to a grand dream to bring the Serronan ties united more then the diplomatic connections being born.

Inspired by Lycandeus, Lycaon's first resident, Milo Brannigan, formed the Serronan Transit Authority. This effort would unite Serrona, and become the first stoneworks highway to interconnect more than half of it's continent. As the project began work, mining companies, laborers, and merchants took the opportunity to call Lycaon home.

An Uncertain Future
As the project churned it's gears, it hit several snags. Disease, Political tension, and sabotage temporarily shut down the project. This, in combination with the Payton Bay Mine collapse, wavered many's confidence. The population plummeted from about 400 to 13 within a few months, as many fled to the Tildivul-Sparport Metro Area, now known as Aroforn.

Seeds of Hope
Just when the town was looking like it would be breathing it's last few breaths, the Serronan Transit Authority recieved a series of generous donations from the Yocotl-Durradyne family. This renewed faith in the project, and the roadway loop was finished in the Hagusaki-USSE Border.Shortly therafter, Lycaon was named the Provincial Seat of Vulperia by Westeros.

Traffic began to flow again, and with the new travelers came many businesses, helping breath life into old homes and shops. Renewed interest in the town was also fueled by VOSC's purchasing of the old Payton Bay Factory, which had been marked for demolition.

Lycaon Today
Lycaon today stands in a position prouder then it's first boom. While it may not be the largest of Vulperia, Citizens are proud for the culture, and perseverance through hardships. Victor's day is celebrated in the late summer, following the remembrance festivals of the Vul Lycan Race.

Many plans are in fruition, mostly focused on tourism.

Vulpinia's first radio, 97.9 WAVE recently debuted it's first broadcast to the homes of several residents, reaching as far as Manzig in the USSE. This has been considered a big victory for both redstone engineers, and fans of Citypop. Broadcasts have yet to be archived.

The Grand Hotel, a project by the Vulpinian Tourism Board Currently has a plot staked out for a hotel in Lycaon, with hopes of being the largest in Serrona.

With the Serronan Loop being finished, a proposal of a horse race going all the way around has been considered heavily.
