Welcome to Aranthaes: City of Gold
The air is thick with the scent of exotic spices and perfumes in this playground for the wealthy where anything goes, from elegant opera houses to packed banking houses, from expert goldsmiths in the glittering jewelry quarter, to expert courtesans in the underbelly’s Red Lantern district.
And beneath the city, a vast golden stockpile affording every citizen pledged to the city’s deity, gold for life. But at what cost?
Beyond the city’s fortified walls, busy trade routes radiate out like veins, carrying caravans of merchants and mercenaries, adventurers seeking their fortune, and bandits looking to steal their share of the wealth.
All of this makes Aranthaes the perfect location for adventurers seeking wealth, power, and fame. But beware – for the intense politics, unique local beliefs, unexpected dangers and enthralling city intrigues that may be waiting around every corner are not for the faint of heart.
Whether you’re seeking your fortune in trade, delving into the city’s dark underworld, or climbing the ranks of the city’s elite, Aranthaes is the ultimate destination for those with a hunger for adventure.
