Ptolus

Ptolus the “City by the Spire” is a bustling metropolis in the world of Valorian. It is a city steeped in lore and history, and is home to a wide variety of people and creatures.
According to legend, Ptolus was founded over a thousand years ago by a powerful wizard named Praemal. Praemal was said to have been one of the greatest wizards of his time, and he created the city as a safe haven for other wizards and magical creatures. The city was built around a massive spire that rose up from the center of the city, and it quickly became known as a center of magical power and knowledge.
Over the centuries, Ptolus grew and expanded, attracting people from all over the world. It became a hub of trade and commerce, and its reputation as a city of magic only grew stronger. However, with this growth came conflict, as different factions vied for power and influence within the city. These factions included powerful wizard cabals, wealthy merchant guilds, and even criminal organizations.
Despite these conflicts, Ptolus remained a center of learning and knowledge. Its libraries and universities were renowned throughout the world, and scholars and adventurers alike flocked to the city in search of knowledge and adventure.
However, Ptolus also had its dark side. Beneath the bustling streets and bustling markets, there were hidden catacombs and ancient ruins, where dark creatures and powerful wizards conducted their nefarious business. Rumors of secret societies and sinister cults circulated throughout the city, and many believed that there were powerful forces at work behind the scenes, manipulating the city's destiny for their own purposes.
Despite these dangers, Ptolus remained a city of opportunity and adventure, where anyone could make a name for themselves if they were brave and cunning enough. For those who were willing to take the risk, the city offered the promise of wealth, power, and fame. But for those who were not careful, Ptolus could also be a city of death and despair.
