Calimport

Calimport is the sprawling capital city of the country of Calimshan. It is on both the water and the desert, so it can be reached either way. Memnon and Manshaka are close trading partners; Manshaka by sea and Memnon by caravan. Sometimes the local traders make runs that go as far as Luskan.

Sultan Vezhera is King, but the Crime Guilds run the streets. It is all well organized so an outsider wouldn't know the difference. Bead stands, harems and taverns line the streets, but as usual there is always a top provider of both. Taverns include Mystic Tavern, which has an opium den in the back, and the Glistening Harem that has a wondrous bath house.

Calimport also is the home of the assassin Artemis Entreri, known for his longstanding feud with Drizzt Do'Urden.
