Zaun Images

Zaun generally is a dirty unkempt undercity. The Zaun images included here will illustrate this point. It is directly below Piltover. Once Piltover and Zaun were on city. There was an environmental disaster after Zaun cleared a long thin strip of land with explosives. Several districts fell into fissures. The wealthiest groups built up along the cliffside. Those less fortunate found shelter deep underground. Sadly, green poisonous gasses permeate Zaun. And although crime, and poor environmental conditions are ever present, the culture of Zaun thrives. The growth of Piltover has allowed Zaun to grow in tandem in its own unique way. Engineers specializing in the volatile Chemtech trade thrive here. Illicit and unethical business practices aren’t forbidden here, unlike Piltover. Essentially, Zaun and Piltover benefit from their symbiotic relationship. Nonetheless, there is still considerable tension.

Zaun is a rather vertically aligned city. Unsurprisingly, the top level are where the wealthy congregate. In Zaun, this region is called the Promenade Level. It functions as a commercial and entertainment district. Wealthy individuals dine and enjoy entertainment. Eventually, disposable consumer goods make their way down to the lower levels of Zaun. Interestingly, the Promenade level is parallel to Piltover itself. Still, there is no mistaking the stark contrast between their architecture.

Boundary Markets

College of Techmaturgy

The most prestigious institution for education is the College of Techmaturgy. Its tower is erected between the North and South canyon opening of Piltover. Several suspension bridges connect the tower to other structures and the cliffside. Of course, those bright enough to study Techmaturgy may enroll with the enough coin.

The Cliff

Entresol Level

This area is directly below the Promenade Level. Naturally, it is where the working class Zaunites congregate. Also, it is one of the most populated districts in Zaun. In the Entresol Level, there are plenty of trader outposts, clubs, bars, and more. It is one of the most cultured areas of entresol. It attracts a variety of working-class citizens. Unfortunately, the Entresol Level is where most of the Zaun Gray is.

Emberflit Alley

Emberflit Alley is a foggy and narrow corridor in the Entresol Level of Zaun. Interestingly, the famous cybernetics inventor, Viktor lives in Emberflit Alley.

Sump Level

The lowest level of Zaun. This is where the trash and discarded items fall to. Here is where the working-class citizens work. Or just above it. The Zaun Grey originated here. It has not risen up to the Entresol Level. Sadly, most of this region works for the chem-barons in some fashion. Whether directly, or indirectly. Of course, the Sump Level is fuming with criminals, a dodgy behavior.
