Agropthos

The city of Agropthos is located in the Cardillic Desert, at what one might call the crook of the Varrag Peninsula, at the northern tip of Shark's Fin Bay. It is on the northern fringe of Cardyl, the westernmost of the Seven Deserts. South and west of the city, the terrain is mostly rocky, while north and east of the city the terrain is a more traditional sand desert.

Agropthos is known throughout the Seven Deserts as the City of Law, as it has a very strict, but fair, judicial system. The city is walled, and the gates are closed from dusk to dawn. It is also the location of the preeminent temple of Laurent.

Agropthos is a very important trading city, sitting as it does at the northernmost accessible port in the Seven Deserts. It receives many goods by both land and sea, and so is the starting point for many caravans that cross the desert to the north and east as well as being home to a large fleet of merchant ships that travel to the south around the bay and the peninsula.
