You all know Nerull as the greater deity of Death and Evil.
Melchia: Knowledge (history): [roll0] <- nice!
Melchia knows quite a bit of Necratal. It is a city just recently founded, at the start of the current Era (about 240 years ago). It was created by a powerful being who, following the Cataclysm that brought hordes of fiends to the world, was able to play on the weakness of the nations of that time - particularly Anmer, the human nation - and managed to found a city-state in the mountains. Said powerful being, shortly after having founded the city, suddenly disappeared from all written accounts and from the memories of everyone, such that nobody now knows who it is, or if it's still alive, or anything.
Necratal in the subsequent decades grew strong thanks to extensive use of undead as labor force, and to this day undead make up a good chunk of the population. It is now a thriving city-state with large borders, acknowledged by all nations except for the Elves, who have never wanted any diplomatic exchange with them.
