Sharn
The City of Towers, the Gateway to Xen’drik, the city of Sharn goes by many names, and the metropolis certainly lives up to its names.
As the biggest city in Khorvaire and a virtual second capital for the nation of Breland, Sharn is a haven for all classes and races. Located on the mouth of the Dragon River, Sharn was built on the ruins of a Goblin city, and has been destroyed and rebuilt several times over the course of its history.
Syriana, a plane that sits nearby, gives air magic particular potency in this city, and thus when the inhabitants ran out of room they found it very easy to grow up. With that growth the city was divided vertically by class. The nobility lives in the highest towers and on the skyway, a separate district floating above the city proper.
Going down from there the main towers hold the middle classes, followed by the lower classes, and finally, on the ground level, are the industrial areas and where the barbarian races live.
Sharn spends most of the year experiencing hot and rainy weather, with a few days a year dry.
Parties among the nobles are frequent, and fashions change constantly.
