[QUOTE="NeuroZombie, post: 1374760, member: 2146"] I have always wanted to run a city-based campaign, so I am in the process of creating a city for that reason. It is still in its infancy, so bear with me. The city is called (at least for now) Sraosha, The City of All-Worlds, and is basically a large island within a demi-plane somewhat akin to Sigil from Planescape. I am going for a more typical metropolis feel as opposed to the wacky Sigil feel, although the city will have regulated gates and various other means of planar travel available for those with proper means. As it stands now, I have 18 Wards and Warrens (there is a difference between these in this city) and I have begun to compile a list of interesting locations/organizations/etc... within these areas. I just wanted to ask you, the enworlders, what unique locales, etc... you would add to such a city. Any and all comments are highly welcome.
