Warlock's Crypt

Warlock's Crypt was home to the lich Larloch. The name was a corruption of "Larloch's Crypt." It laid at the southwestern edge of the Troll Hills and north of the Winding Water.

It was a city of undead with many wizard towers, each with a walled, circular garden. The towers, which were connected by small bridges, were clustered around a small spring. The highest tower belonged to Larloch.

Larloch lived in the Warlock's Crypt, which was made out of the ruins of an ancient Netherese flying enclave which crashed to the ground in the downfall of Netheril. Each of the towers which comprised the Warlock's Crypt stood in a circular walled garden. Bridges and walled gardens connected the towers, but no flowers ever grew in this most unholy of places.

History
Originally a city in Low Netheril, it's military took part in the cleansing of the ruins of Cantus in -2811 DR. Two centuries later however, the city became one of Netheril's flying enclaves and was renamed Orbedal which means Sanctuary in Loross. The enclave was established to promote non-violent behaviour among the netherese.

Taking up position over the Cold Forest, Orbedal quickly became a magical haven for pacifists and arcanists who wanted to get on with their magical research without worrying about rivals or the politicking common to other enclaves. They traded with Ascore, their traditional allies, and made sure that orcs didn't come to reside in the forest below.

Pressure for weapons to be allowed came after a cloud dragon had to be driven off when it attacked in -1105 DR, killing around 200 people but the demands were denied until -459 DR when many attacks from a myriad of flying and extraplanar creatures caused the ban to be lifted - though weapons still had to be peacebonded in public.
