Port Vladovar
Port Vladovar is the southernmost port city in the empire.
As the home to massive batteries of artillery aimed out to
sea, as well as much of Khador’s naval might, it is also one
of the most important of Khador’s ports. The barnacle-encrusted remains of an ancient colossal from the days of the
Rebellion mark the entrance to the harbor, standing partially
submerged a few hundred yards out from the docks.
Even before the relative peace that followed the Claiming, Port Vladovar traded heavily with Ord, including frequent dealings with the notorious city of Five Fingers. These days, however, any pirates who want to use the Khadoran port must tread carefully in order to avoid rousing the wrath of the Khadoran navy or the local bratyas who control much of the city’s illicit trade.
To the east of Port Vladovar lies the Shadoweald Forest, a place notorious for the presence of blackclad druids of the Circle Orboros and strange beasts that often sally forth to harry the people on the outskirts of the city. Not far south of these woods sits a massive granite tomb, originally built by Tordoran foes to honor the fallen horselord Khazarak, who was laid to rest here alongside his famous black horse. Khazarak was a giant of a man who unified warring tribes and drove the Trollkin from Khardic lands, and his legend was so great that even his enemies built a tomb to honor him. After centuries of neglect, the tomb was restored by Menite and Morrowan pilgrims working in tandem, as both groups revered the horselord for his bravery and faith.
