The flags of most of Khorvaire’s nations fly in this district, hanging in front of monumental embassy blocks in this district. The crowds include people of all races and many different ethnic backgrounds.
Ambassador Towers, Sharn’s embassy district, is home to embassies and consulates from eleven foreign nations: Aundair, Cyre, Karrnath, the Lhazaar Principalities, the Mror Holds, the Talenta Plains, Thrane, Valenar, Zilargo, Aerenal, and Riedra. A single consul or ambassador heads each embassy. These dignitaries are usually aristocrats or experts of medium level (5th–10th), sometimes multiclassed with a PC class such as rogue, bard, or sorcerer, and sometimes with the spymaster prestige class (described in Song and Silence and Complete Adventurer). The rest of the embassy staff consists of bureaucrats and clerks as well as diplomats, negotiators, and spies. In the minds of Khorvaire’s diplomatic community, the Last War might not be over—a few years of peace could be nothing more than a brief hiatus from a conflict that lasted a century, and hostilities could erupt again at any moment. Best to be prepared.
Cyre’s embassy was established here long before the Last War, and its staff continues to advocate for the interests of the villagers of New Cyre, in eastern Breland.
