Keth

Location: Southeast

Keth is a small independent city-state near the coast. Its most distinguishing feature is its embrace of Necromancy as a tool. Due to its location, Keth has a relatively low population compared to its size. In order to bolster its workforce and military, Keth has turned to resurrection of the dead. These undead workers are able to perform simple and dangerous tasks that would otherwise risk lives, and can provide an army that doesn’t need to eat or rest nearly as often.

In order to facilitate its necromancy, Keth has a college dedicated to the craft. There, budding necromancers can learn in a safer environment, although they won’t be raising the dead anytime soon. Additionally, existing necromancers can get certified and licensed by the university, which allows them to practice nearly freely inside the city as long as they don’t cause harm to citizens or property. This license can be applied in other locations with lesser effect, usually simply granting reduced scrutiny of their actions.
