Drakkenheim#

  • Type: Ruined city
  • Region: Central
  • Status: Extremely dangerous

A once-great city destroyed by a meteor fifteen years ago. Now covered in a purple haze (octarine glow) and crawling with mutated creatures. The source of delerium.

Key Landmarks#

  • Castle Drakken — Imposing fortress perched on a high rocky hill above the city
  • Amethyst Academy Tower — Obsidian glass tower, broken in half at the middle, but the top still hovers above in defiance of gravity
  • St. Vitruvio’s Cathedral — Great domed cathedral, prominently southwest of the castle
  • Market Square Clock Tower — Cosmological clock tower at the heart of the city
  • Drann River — Four bridges cross it; one is covered in massive stone statues, another lurches under ramshackle buildings
  • Inner City — Most dangerous, walled, where the crater is
  • St. Selena’s Monastery — Near the crater
  • Chapel of St. Brenna — Another holy site
  • Buckledown Row — Queen’s Men territory
  • The Scar — Dwarf mining operation on the far side

Conditions#

  • The Haze limits visibility to about 60 feet
  • No long rests possible inside the city
  • Travel encounters rolled on a d12; advantage outside the city walls
  • The city has not seen a clear day in fifteen years
