This city was founded in 966 NA by a group of wizards fleeing persecution in Dartmouth after the eruption of the Shambling Plague. It has been ruled by arcane spellcasters - many of which specialize in necromancy - ever since. It survives and even thrives amidst the dangers of the Lands of the Dead through the might of its rulers, and its policy of strict neutrality. Anyone who comes in peace is welcome here, and anyone who stays within the city's walls for a year and a day is considered a citizen, no matter what he or she might have done elsewhere. Slaves and serfs from other parts of the region often try to flee here, which sustains a large number of bounty hunters who drag these unfortunates back to their owners for punishment.
