-Tharis is a large city with a rich and complex history, situated at the base of a towering mountain range and enveloped by dense, verdant forests. However, the city exists in a state of perpetual darkness, its streets cast in shadow by the Shadovar Capitol [[Tenebrosa]] which hovers ominously above it, blotting out the sun's rays. This floating city exercises strict control over Tharis, creating an atmosphere of tension and unease among the city's diverse inhabitants, which include humans and many monstrous races.+Tharis is a large city with a rich and complex history, situated at the base of a towering mountain range and enveloped by dense, verdant forests.

 Despite the presence of the floating city and its overlords, Tharis remains a hub of illicit activity, harking back to its reputation as the "city of thieves." The underbelly of the city teems with criminal enterprises, and those who operate within its shadowy confines are constantly at odds with the city's law enforcement agencies, who strive to maintain order in a place where chaos and danger are never far away. Despite the presence of the floating city and its overlords, Tharis remains a hub of illicit activity, harking back to its reputation as the "city of thieves."

 More recently Lord Black made a diplomatic breakthrough with the masters of Darol'Dralych and by extension Juran. It is unknown how such feared and powerful beings were brought into the fold, but it has only served to increase the wariness of the growing power in the south as monsters of all sorts gather within the walls of Tharis and Tenebrosa's ever-present shadow.    More recently Lord Black made a diplomatic breakthrough with the masters of Darol'Dralych and by extension Juran.

-**Religious ties:** Since the arrival of Tenebrosa and subsequent rise of Lord Shadow to godhood, the church of Lord Shadow has dominated the the Empire. For a time, within Tenebrosa and by extension Tharis there was only one faith you admitted to being a part of, and that was His. This continued until Springstime 751 SG when the Primordial Darkness was awakened and spilled forth onto the material plane at the gates of Antioch. Upon Ashra's awakening, a new breed of Shadovar began to appear and of those who were handed the reins of Tharis many were dual faithed serving both Lord Shadow and Ashra. +**Religious ties:** Since the arrival of Tenebrosa and subsequent rise of Lord Shadow to godhood, the church of Lord Shadow has dominated the Empire.

 Shortly after the temple of Ashra was erected upon the ruins of what was once the temple of Shar, in the heart of the mountain at the base of the city, not far from the temple of Lord Shadow. Over time Her faith has become nearly as prevalent as His in Tharis as it was revealed that Lord Shadow's own children orchestrated the awakening of Ashra suggesting that it was all by His design. It is commonly spoken that Lord Shadow is the first and most favored of Ashra's children and that he has been tasked with the dominion of Her flock. This has resulted in some of other dark faiths journeying to the city to learn of the Primordial Dark and being drawn into the service of the Shadovar and by extension Lord Shadow. Thus does He remain the preeminent power in the Empire. Shortly after the temple of Ashra was erected upon the ruins of what was once the temple of Shar, in the heart of the mountain at the base of the city, not far from the temple of Lord Shadow.
