Eberron: Where are the bodies stored in Sharn?

[Creamsteak]

I've got a fairly simple question, where are the graveyards or equivelent in Sharn? I didn't find the answer in Sharn: City of Towers, but if anyone knows I'd like to find out.

Hmmm ... where's WanderingMonster when you need him? He's my Eberron DM. One of our first adventures involved a place in Sharn called the "Grave Tower" -- I think it might have been something he made up but I'm not sure...

 

[LoneWolf23]

Well, looking at medieval cities as an exemple, Sharn probably has Catacombs deep under the city...

Page 103 of Sharn: The City of the Dead, the Dragon Crypts and Halden's Tomb. Most people are cremated these days, so there's less of a demand for tomb-space.

What dravot said, plus on the map of Sharn on pg10 it's in the NE corner.

In a world where necromancy can do creative things with dead bodies, I'd assume that most people would be cremated or otherwise rendered useless to necromancy.

Apparently, the City of the Dead is outside the manifest zone, which is neat.

Except in Karrnath, where it's your patriotic duty to come back and join the military

 

[Andre La Roche]

Why do you think Sharn has so much more space than needed by the living, as noted in another thread?

I live in a world where cancer exists and I still eat twinkies. IOW yeah necromacers exist but few people probaly think there uncle ted is the one in god knows how many who's going to get animated by crazy francine. To animate dead you got to be at least 5th level, 7th if arcane. You have to have a pc class you wont be good and even if you can you only control 4xyour spellcaster level in hd of undead. Lots and lots of people die, the vast majority just wont be touched by necromancy.
