Teziir
Port in The Dragon Coast
Teziir is a port city on the Dragon Coast, founded in 1312 DR as a free trading city to rival Westgate, and later a protectorate of Cormyr.
Crooked streets wind through a young, haphazard port, shacks and tents spread beyond the walls, and every official knows the unspoken rule: get results or get out.

Overview
Teziir was founded by merchants who wanted to take the trade between the Sword Coast and the Inner Sea from Westgate. For nearly a century it was an independent trade city, run like a business by its founders on the Council of Teziir, who hire and fire officials as employees.
The city grew without a plan: few streets run straight, and many people live in shacks and tents outside the walls. It later came under the protection of Cormyr.
