Glass Pyramids

The Glass Pyramids are a pair of transparent pyramids located in the Inner City district of Katapesh. The pyramids are made of transparent metal plates, a unique design created by Gezbria and Tralvar, the two dwarven wizards interred within who had arrived to Katapesh in 2219 AR.

Unknown to almost all, the two wizards discovered a confluence of magic ley lines beneath the Golden City and built two structures atop it, but too late realised that the magic was corrupt and uncontrollable. To stop this powerful magic being used for evil they built the Glass Pyramids on top of their previous structures, and after warding themselves with powerful magic they interred themselves alive within the pyramids. The magic of the corrupted ley lines soon overwhelmed them, transforming them into evil liches.

The site is regularly investigated by curious adventurers and scholars, but those smart enough to bypass the magic wards inevitably fall victim to the evil liches dwelling within. The Glassclaw tribe of kobolds consider it their sacred mission to ensure that no one ever breaks the Glass Pyramids, claiming to have guarded the structures for more than 100 generations, a longer span of time than the pyramids have existed.
