Baldur's Gate, as a city, wasn't too pleasant. There was a major coup brewing, yes, but still it was pleasant enough to visit.
Athkatla, on the other hand, has -
- Irenicus' dungeon on the promenade
- A lunatic illusionist not more than 50 yards from Irenicus' dungeon
- A colony of Illithids living in the sewers
- A Beholder cult, also in the sewers
- Two serial killers <one from Baldur's Gate>
- A multidimensional Sphere in the SLums
- A troupe of player-actors with a multiplanar price on their heads
- The only Harper Stronghold in the world
- The Shadow Thieves
- The vampiric Guild of Assassins
- The Cowled Wizards
- A vast slavery market

On the whole, it's a damn good thing Irenicus DID bring the PC to Athkatla, or all hell would have broken loose in a matter of months.

It'd be entertaining to watch. Although only from faaaar away.

VERY FAR AWAY! And don't forget the whole prostitue thing.

I've been trying to forget the prostitute thing for some time.
