City Maps: Archlis - Havard - 02-17-2013 Tired of City Maps yet? This coastal city was once the home of Skelfer Ard. It was destroyed during the Mage Wars, two centuries ago, but has since been rebuilt. I added a ruined part of the city as a nod to the Mage Wars incident. Although the main temple of Mwajin is located in Maus, it made sense to me to have a temple of Mwajin in Archlis as well.

(Or any other time of day, for that matter...) That is actually brilliant enough to make an adventure out of! Old Archlis was destroyed by Elliere Vadaley in 894. In 900 she was destroyed by Skelfer Ard in an Arcane Duel. Perhaps Elliere is still haunting these ruins along with a bunch of undead minions? What other secrets may these ruins hold?

James Pren, a character with whom I have a passing aquaintance, comes from Archlis. I shall be interested to see any more material on this location.
