Chaulssin

Chaulssin was a drow city in the Underdark. To some people it is also known as the City of Wyrmshadows. Chaulssin lies beneath the northern Rauvin Mountains. It overhangs a extremly deep abyss and cold winds howl permanently through the city. It rests upon a great spar of stone. After it was conquered by Shadow dragons and ruled by their descendants the city was partially brought into the Plane of Shadow. Tendrils of shadow-stuff winds all the time through the city and deadly shadow creatures haunts the streets. Sometimes whole quarters vanish into the Plane of Shadow and reappear years later.

History
Chaulssin was once a drow city until a the Jaezred Clan conquered it and enslaved the inhabitants more than 1500 years ago (measured from 1372 DR). This clan was a clan of Shadow dragons and they ruled for centuries. They mingled with the drow and created a slave race of half-drow and half-dragons. These slaves overthrow their masters and killed most of the dragons. Today the city is the headquarter of the infamous Jaezred Chaulssin, an organisation of powerfull assassins and worshippers of Vhaeraun.
