Thar Amphala

Thar Amphala was a city in the Shadowfell. Following the completion of the ritual atop Entropis, Thar Amphala was transported to the Prime Material Plane, in the north of the Ice-peak Concord.

History

Little is known about Thar Amphala's founding and history before Vecna's involvement. Near the beginning of Vecna's rise to power, he overtook the city to act as the base of operations for his growing army of followers and undead creatures. In the centre he built the tower known as Entropis.
From his new seat of power, Vecna gained powers that allowed him to open up portals between the Shadowfell and the material plane on a whim. With this, Vecna sent his forces across Toriel to spread his influence, wreak vengeance on past enemies and strike fear into the masses, beginning his rise to infamy.
As Vecna's terror spread from Thar Amphala, the holy army led Lireesa Windrunner, invaded the ancient city. During the ensuing battle Lireesa was bested, but witnessed Vecna's death knight lieutenant attempt to kill and usurp his wounded master. Kas the Bloody-Handed and Vecna were both destroyed in the ensuing fight, and the victorious army left Thar Amphala. The Sword of Kas, the weapon wielded by Vecna's lieutenant, had been imbued with a fragment of Kas's consciousness, and so was buried beneath the city at some point.
Later, the city was reused by cultists of Vecna. The city's streets were overrun with walking corpses, that its skies were patrolled by horrid shadow creatures known as Gloomstalkers, and that its inhabitants were all insane cultists who had removed either an eye or a hand in worship of Vecna.
The city was teleported to the north of the Ice-peak Concord during the ritual trying to bring Vecna back from the dead (again).
