(population: 55,000) Located on the Ilseni Islands, Imshar is the capital of the Sultanate of Ilsenene.
Imshar is a sprawling city of stone, timber, and clay, built into the hillside of the enormous Mount Ilvadreen.
As a thriving seaport, this Hakeen city competes with Ko-Dan as the other great producer of pearls. The city is known throughout the world of Oris as the 'Hakeen-Pearl," and "Pearl City."
Overlooking the entire city is the famed, "Oyster Palace," a magnificent, opulent fortress that has been home to the Sultans of Ilsenene for generations. Imshar is also one of the great seaports of the Vhan Myr; largely thanks to Al-Nhoor Harbor, a naturally well-protected lagoon surrounded on three sides by tall hills that safely shelter the ships lying within.
At any given time, as many as 500 assorted merchant vessels can be found moored here, from such ports as: Al' Kethai, Malvatis, Orel, Rhaygos, Styr, the Seven Cities of Bronze, and Yamada.
Imshar's population is majoirty Hakeen, but its harbor district houses distinct minorities of Daroon, Eloysians, and Thanns.
