City of Brass
The fabled City of Brass is the capital of the Efreet Empire, the nation of the genies known as the Efreet, and is found on the Plane of Fire. The Efreet themselves call the city Fommok Madinah. It is a city of majestic palaces, tall towers, and wide boulevards that provides some respite to visitors of this otherwise wholly inhospitable plane. Even though many Efreet are happy to trade with others, their inherent racial prejudice means that most feel little compunction in taking advantage of, or even robbing and enslaving outsiders who show weakness. Those visitors who can convince the Efreet that they are not to be trifled with, or acquire an official status such as trader or diplomat, have access to the grandest markets that the Plane of Fire, and some even say the all the realms, has to offer.
Referred to as the Suq al-Azzmir Marketplace by Efreet, The Great Bazaar bazaar is one of the largest trading hubs in the all the realms. One can find almost any good imaginable here, from the mundane, like metals and spices, to the magical. The principal stock of this great market, however, is the slave trade that flourishes here. Gold isn't the main currency that exchanges hands, that being instead magics which the Efreet covet. The only items that are rare to see is anything related to water, which is strictly regulated and items that could be used in the binding of genies. This region is among the most diverse of the whole city consisting of many fire-immune creatures like Efreet, azers, salamanders, and fire elementals.
The city, and by extension the empire is ruled by Sultan Khalidlah II.
