| − | ===Clasthamus Isle===
| |
| − | Thamus is an old, almost forgotten deity of protection and safety. Long ago, he bequeathed the Stones of Thamus to the world as tokens of his power. These stones fell into the possession of a human druid named Andach, who placed them on the far end of a bridge that connects a little island to the shore of a very small lake called the Lake of Sorrows within the Necropolis. The artifacts of this good god of life make it impossible for any undead or demon to step onto the bridge or the island, or even touch the waters of the lake. Andach still lives on Clasthamus Isle along with his apprentice Hennam, a female half-elf who is always eager for news of the city, Palastan, and almost any other topic. She begs for any information visitors can provide and is happy to chat, unlike her master.

| − | ===The Inverted Pyramid===
| |
| − | The Inverted Pyramid group dedicated to fostering magical study and rewarding those who excel in it. The members of the Inverted Pyramid never refer to their organization as a “guild”—the Pyramid is far more than that. The group is concerned with preserving magical lore and all things arcane from those it believes would eradicate such knowledge. Its membership includes most of the powerful arcanists in Ptolus and the world.

| |
| − | The Inverted Pyramid is extremely secretive. The general public has no idea where in the city the group bases its operations, and no one knows any details about its membership, other than perhaps the identities of its more flamboyant or famous members. Most wizards and sorcerers in Ptolus would love to join the organization, though they only extend membership to those with great skill and experience.

| − | ===Iridithil's Home===
| |
| − | Often called the Elven Sanctuary, this compound is for elves only (though the occasional aarakocra is also welcome here). The master of the house is Doraedian Mythlord, a regal, even-tempered male elf with long grey hair and intense eyes. The elves of Ptolus look to Doraedian as their de facto leader, although no one—least of all Doraedian—would ever really put it like that. He looks after elven concerns in the city, and the elves (and most non-elves) give him the respect he is due as a wise and generous administrator. Doraedian is soft-spoken, generous, fair, and quite noble.
