Overview & Canon History
Teziir is a protectorate of Cormyr, that formerly boasted itself as the largest free city on Dragon Coast. It is an independent trade city that attempts to displace Westgate as the principal trade city for goods traveling from the Sword Coast to the Inner Sea. Teziir is run like a business by the Council of Teziir. This council's membership of many of the same men and women who founded the city and they run the city consists like it is their own personal property. Teziir has a normal population of around 40,000, which swells to over 50,000 in the summer period. There is also a population of prospectors and miners who ploy their trades in the mountains outside the city. As of the late 15th century DR, Teziir boasts a large Shou population, a result of increased emigration westward along the Golden Way. There was no 'official' religion of the city, though most of the ruling council worship Helm.
