Quantium, a port city on the Obari Ocean, is the capital of the nation of Nex. The city prides itself on its diversity; xenophobia is frowned upon. The city has many palaces, hanging gardens, and open-air mazes, as well as several reputable universities of arcane magic and lore. The city's magnificence has been compared with Oppara in Taldor and Sothis in Osirion.[1]
There are many statues of the archmage Nex, and the heroes who helped him forge the kingdom that still bears his name.[1]
Titanic protectors
Two huge quantium golems, one green and one red, silently circle the city's perimeter, as they have for more than four millennia. It was prophesied that they will defend the city in times of great need, but in the current Age of Lost Omens, no prophecy can be considered to be reliable.[1][2]
Economy
The city is renowned as Golarion's best source for magic items, spell components, and arcane services.[3]
Inhabitants
Quantium has a cosmopolitan population, and its lore draws travelers not only from distant lands but also distant planes of the Great Beyond.[3]
