Umethrynn

Umethrynn is the proud home city of the drow in Subterranea. It is encircled by a splitting river that functions like a moat. Three bridges cross the river to connect to major roads, the largest of which is Sindrar Bridge, which leads to the south exit of Subterranea. Within the border of the moat, a natural row of huge stalagmites sitting under stalactites form a wall around the city, creating the appearance of a huge circle of pointed teeth. The city is illuminated green from iridescent mushrooms, and its spired buildings are built from stone and zhurkwood. The river flows into Wath'rym Lake just east of the city.

Most of the city is inhabited by drow. Large castlelike buildings are inhabited by the wealthiest and strongest families and their servants. The remaining homes are occupied by a variety of unaffiliated Subterranean races as well as some surface folk.

Government

Umethrynn is run by a council containing representatives from prominent drow clans. The city's peaceful relations between its leaders has led to complacency; citizens wanting to see the city grow and expand often liken the council to a puppet show.

Law & enforcment

Many citizens of Umethrynn are trained in some form of combat. As such, the city watch consists of an elite set of warriors who have proven their mettle through a series of difficult tests.
