Maharâg

Built in the Demon Spawn War (89 GE - 269 GE), Maharâg was a Covenant armaments factory. It extends from the exterior of the Gûn Volcano, where it overlooks the Galathien Sea, down dry lava tubes to passages and chambers to lava canals feeding dozens of forge areas. The bottom living areas of the city overlook the subterranean sea of Ebonmurk.

In 570 HE, after being cleared of its monster infestation, settlers out of Guthnimor took up residence, repairing and firing up Maharâg's legendary forges. A sprawling place, sited on two oceans, one on the surface and one in the region of Onvorn, and near a major subterranean trade route, Gûn became an important trade stop.

In 1479, Maharâg was besieged by Katrana, lich general of the Black Tide. In 1482, Maharâg was captured by a force that had once defended the city, some living and some undead. The living were those forced to put on the Crown of Phlehorn, a cursed artifact that turned dwarves into duergar, and worse, making them fanatics for the cause of Katrana.

In 1533, in an epic quest, the Golden Elite reversed Katrana's magic, restoring Maharâg's "corrupted clan" to their former selves.

The main road leading from the city is Maharâg Ascent. It goes into the Underdark, ending at the Great Tradeway.

Maharâg maintains close ties with their brethren at Guthnimor.
