New Halimar

The remains of a portion of the Merfolk capital city of Halimar from the plane of Zendikar, this district was shifted entirely across planes during the events of the Maelstrom in Kythorn 1494 DR. After suffering heavily in the magical tragedy, the city found itself suddenly at the whims of foreign governments and the bizarre ecology of the River Ashaba. Home to nearly 400 merfolk the city continues to stand as a somewhat culturally distinct entity within the city of Driftriver, though a number of other races have taken advantage of the new district such as tritons, sea elves and other aquatic races. Relations are currently good between the district and Driftriver, and construction is rapidly reshaping the lakebed of the Pool of Yeven. The merfolk have offered the city quite a number of marine services and many have quickly integrated into the economy of the city.

New Halimar Points of Interest

The Gate of Salazar
A large stone sculpture of a B.A.S.E. adventurer whose magic brought great relief to the people of Halimar during the Maelstrom. The rough cut statue holds aloft a piece of glimmering glasswork, meant to symbolize a large gemstone used to connect the gates which transported the goods which saved many lives, commemorating the efforts of Salazar and Sophia to gate the goods to New Halimar. The statue helps direct passing ships by indicating the areas of safe passage. A number of other buoys with glimmering glasswork of similar design lay in a network around New Halimar warning ships of the dangerous reefs in the area, and enforcing the no-shipping zone over the district which Salazar also helped negotiate.
