Description

  • It houses Egyptians, Jews, Greeks, Arabs, Syrians, Hebrews, Persians, Nubians, Phoenicians, Italians, Gauls and Iberians, and is a center of exchange of goods and ideas.
  • It is probably where the word “cosmopolitan” acquired its authentic sense: “citizen of the Cosmos.”
  • A distant connection to Paris, Venice and the Portal Peoples allows the existence of Sigil.
  • It has been the axis of the dual world since the ancient Egyptians.
  • The Ethiopia of acid lakes was the home of GRDT (Graz’zt), formerly known as “Gueredet” (Ge’ez).

Appearances

In a later day of Uchronic Paris, Alexandria (Mamluk domain) is the destination of the Time Capsules quest, where Thomas Cole repairs the U-Reloj and Swann searches the Akashic Records (Axum) while investigating dark forces and temporal artifacts.
