The Temple-city of Tlaxtlan
TAKE A TOUR OF AN ANCIENT LIZARDMEN TEMPLE-CITY

Explore the ancient and terrible city of Tlaxtlan, one of the first temple-cities, with this interactive map.

Temple Guard Standard BearerA huge stepped pyramid temple, rising above the seething jungle, stands at the centre of this ancient Old One temple-city. Each of the temple-cities is dedicated to a different founding Old One divinity, although there are often numerous other pyramids dedicated to other blessed Old Ones, as well as Sotek. At the top of these pyramids, the most sacred rituals are performed, including bloody sacrifices and dedications to the gods.

Each of the temple-cities is carefully positioned to relate to specific constellations and various astral and stellar alignments. As well as relating to constellations in the skies, each city lies along lines of power criss-crossing the world. These ley lines link the temple-cities, forming a web of energy that the Slann are able to tap into, enhancing their own powers of sorcery and communication.

In the time of the Old Ones, each of the temple-cities was a thriving community. Over the thousands of years that followed the departure of the Old Ones, many of the cities were overrun and fell into ruin, sacked and raided, their Slann Mage-Priests lost from the world forever. Sometimes these cities have been reclaimed, their ancient secrets recovered, while others remain hidden by the dense jungles.
