City of Sharn
Lore and overview[edit]
Sharn* is the largest city (but not the capital) in the kingdom of Breland and indeed, the continent of Khorvaire. It is a melting pot of all races, with the human population being the largest but still only a third of Sharn's some 212,000 citizens.
- (* The city of Sharn is also called the City of Towers, but, locally, most often just "Sharn". However, and especially outside the City of Sharn, the term "Sharn" may also be used to refer to the criminal organization the Sharn Syndicate.)
A vertical city, Sharn is linked with the plane of Syrania, granting enhanced power to flight and levitation magic, a feature that the city's residents have used to build towers that rise higher into the sky than any other place on Khorvaire and possibly the world of Eberron. Due to the myriad of cultures that live and have lived in Sharn, examples of architecture from all over Khorvaire can be found. Most of Sharn's wealthiest inhabitants live in the upper regions of the city, enjoying the freshest air and least claustrophobic views.
In Dungeons & Dragons Online[edit]
| City of Sharn public zones | |
The city of Sharn has been introduced in DDO with the Masterminds of Sharn expansion pack. Nevertheless, the city zones are actually Free to Play, while only the quests, raids, and The Cogs wilderness adventure area require access to the expansion pack.
In game, the city of Sharn is divided into many distinct areas: the Cliffside Docks District, and, far above sea level, the Clifftop Tower District, which is informally divided into upper and lower levels. The Cogs is an adventure area located in lower area of the city of Sharn. With later updates, Morgrave University areas were added to the game. Each has its own set of quests that can be accessed there, and different methods of arriving there from Stormreach. (Note that there is no direct access from Stormreach to the Part 2/Cogs area.)
[edit]
- Stormreach the Harbor to Sharn - you arrive at Cliffside Docks District
- From Guild Airships to Sharn - you arrive at Clifftop Tower District
- Between Docks District and Tower District - use an elevator, jumping down is also a option
- Tower District's "upper area" and "lower area" is unofficial - it is still in one same map
- From Tower District to Morgrave University - use a blue Air Shuttle
- Morgrave University is separated into Lower Quad and Upper Commons, each separated instance/map
- Lower Quad's only one exit "door" always takes you to Tower District near the Air Shuttle (which does not make a lot of sense)
- Upper Commons can further be separated into 3 destinations/areas but it still is a one bing instance/map, it just has a layered structure and teleport locaitons within it
- Upper Commons and Lareth Hall is on the same level - jumping down to the "right" area takes you to Nymph's Court without loading screen (and with possible falling damage), jumping down to the "worng" area still takes to Nymph's Court, this time with loading screen
- From Nymph's Court to Upper Commons/Lareth Hall - use red portal or elevetor
- Guild Airship access locations within Sharn - Tower District and Upper Commons
