Ceryl

THE CITY OF WIZARDS

The second-largest city in Cygnar, Ceryl was once the capital of the kingdom of Thuria, and it remains an impressive sight, especially for the many travelers who first arrive here by ship. Built upon the hillsides rising from the waterfront, the city is like a mountain made of buildings, constructed street by street and layer by layer.

Home to a long arcane tradition, Ceryl is the headquarters of the former Fraternal Order of Wizardry. In the spirit of Cygnar’s new policy of greater tolerance—and against the wishes of many of its older members—the Order has been encouraged to drop the word “Fraternal” from its name and to begin accepting female members. Only in the last year did the first such members of the newly restructured order attend its home base in the imposing building known as the Stronghold in Ceryl. In addition to the Order of Wizardry, Ceryl is home to significant branches of both the Order of Illumination and the Order of the Golden Crucible.

Visitors to the City of Wizards are encouraged to take advantage of the city’s innovative cable cars, which run the length and breadth of the metropolis. A “day ticket” costs only three crowns and allows riders to hop on any passing car to whisk them anywhere in the city they want to go.

Over the last few years, the Crown has increased its efforts to connect the old Thurian capital with Caspia via rail. Similar projects have met with failure in the past, but King Julius and his advisors believe that the aid of the Trollkin of the United Kriels will allow them to succeed where others have floundered. Construction has already begun on the proposed line, which would run from Point Bourne through The Gnarls with plans to meet in the middle. Numerous rail workers have poured into the region around Ceryl to work on the new line, including a large influx of Rhulfolk and Ogrun. These efforts have been helped along by the Trollkin kriels, who work as advisors and laborers while also ensuring that the construction inflicts minimal damage upon the surrounding ecosystems.
