Dusktower

Dusktower is one of the major cities of the Ravus Empire.

  • Geography: A fortress city in the wastelands of Ravus’ northern highlands, built from black iron and necrotic stone. The Shadowveil Font, a Voryn-blessed Aetheric font, pulses with dark energy, polluting Myrath’s tributaries, reached via ash-choked roads.
  • Culture: Humans, tieflings, and orcs revere Voryn and Eclipsa during the Third and Sixth Umbral Moons. Dusktower produces necrotic war machines, prioritizing conquest.

Key Features

  • Shadowveil Font
  • Ironworks: Factories forging Aether-powered weapons.
  • No Aether Hall: Aetherkin are banned, requiring covert travel by wasteland caravans.
