#Lore24 Malebolge, City of Devils #Creature24 Devils

 Floating in the Obsidian Sands half way between the outer ring and the center of the realm is the great and awful city of Malebolge. The devils and genies that get trapped in UslaCarine make their way to Malebolge like moths to a flame. 

 

Maleboldgian society is ridged and litigous.  Every deal is calculated and argued to maximize profit and power.  The cities population is comprised of Devils trapped in UslaCairne, their devilkin spawn, and genies that they keep as oracles and magical power sources.
