138 CHAPTER 6 | TAVICK’S LANDING QUARTER

Tavick’s Landing Quarter .........................................

If you come to Sharn by land or air, you’ll enter

the city through Tavick’s Landing. The quarter

took on a martial aspect during the Last War,

and this can still be felt today. On the positive

side, the Watch Commander Iyanna ir’Talan has

local garrisons of the Sharn Watch; this is one of

the few districts where the Watch is both helpful

and competent. On the downside, citizens of any

nation that fought against Breland during the

war may be greeted with suspicion or hostility.

  authority to act as agents of the Sharn
  Watch within Upper Tavick’s Landing,
  and a hundred elite Blademark mercenaries
  maintain checkpoints at the district’s edges.


• You need a license to carry a weapon in
  Upper Tavick’s Landing. This costs only 5

  a tool to keep undesirables out of the ward.

    this. Typically, armor is considered
    inappropriate unless you’re tied to House
    Deneith, the Sharn Watch, or you’ve served

In contrast to the upper ward, Middle Tavick’s

Landing welcomes travelers and tourists. There’s

a host of lively taverns and excellent inns.

The Cornerstone is a massive arena that hosts

everything from circuses to aerial jousting. The
