The old city of Xub'Roth lies mostly in ruins but near the center of the ruins lies the major restored and inhabited area of the city, which is also known as Xub'Roth. However, throughout the ruins there are smaller inhabited regions more akin to villages or towns. [b]Major Castles/Fortresses:[/b] Xub'Roth has several major forts along its borders known as citadels. The citadels are all restored forts along the ruined outer wall of Xub'Roth, which runs the entirety of the ruined city's cliff side. [b]Buildings of Interest:[/b] [b]Geographic Features of Interest:[/b] The entirety of Xub'Roth is located on a major geographic feature: a great plateau jutting out of the side of the mountains. The plateau is bordered on one side by the mountains of the Bones, while on the other is a great cliff that drops off into the foothills at the Bones' base. In addition, there is a massive river that runs through the plateau, and thus the ruined city, bisecting it in two. It begins high in the mountains and enters the plateau through a great waterfall on the mountainside edge and exits the same way on the cliffside edge. [b]Territory Description:[/b] Xub'Roth is a city located within a massive complex of ruins far larger than any other city in the world. Where other nations would have untamed wilderness, Xub'Roth has crumbling roads and buildings, decaying from age and overgrown with all manner of plant life. The actual inhabited city of Xub'Roth is located near the center of the ruins, with smaller inhabited areas being spread throughout the ruins. Because of this, there is next to no arable land in Xub'Roth and they rely almost entirely on imported food to sustain their population. However, almost to offset this the mountains that are encompassed by Xub'Roth are very rich in gems and precious metals. And these same mountains provide an impressive defensive barrier to any would-be invaders; any attacking army would need to fight their way up the citadel-guarded cliffs or cross down from the mountains. And once then, they would need to fight their way through the dense, crumbling ruins. However, Xub'Roth is incredibly easy to siege as a result of their need to import nearly all their food.

They are lead by the Shrouded King, who is a descendant of the great Prophet who lead his followers to Xub'Roth and founded the modern state among the ruins. [b]Religious Information:[/b] The Nameless Cult is a religion based around the worship of a plethora of deities known as the Nameless Ones. The Nameless Ones are so named because they have no names and no forms; they are more a divine force than they are a pantheon of gods. Their priests do not differentiate between any individual Nameless Ones, as there are no individuals to differentiate between and so are always worshiped together as a group. There are a number of different Rites and Rituals that their priests perform in order to placate and honour the Nameless Ones, though they can differ from region to region and some can be more savage than others. The Cult itself has no specific code of morals that its cultists must follow, aside from worshiping and honouring the Nameless Ones and their glory. The Nameless Cult's view of other religions is generally the same. They do not outright deny the existence of other Gods. However, they view all of them as inferior to the Nameless Ones. They view Justinian, however, as nothing more than a worthless pretender leeching power from those who have true power. And as a result they tend to view Justinians in a worse light than the followers of other religions.
