Shammel

Shammel is a port city on the Bay of Gifts on the northern coast of Marquet. It is a major trade center as well as a popular tourist attraction. The city is bustling and, as is to be expected in a tourist town, everything is a little more expensive than Vox Machina are used to. The beaches of the Bay of Gifts feature white sands and clear, glittering, turquoise-colored waters. Ships of all sizes make use of the bay, from the smallest fishing vessels to massive cargo ships.

When Vox Machina passed over the city at night in a skyship, it appeared to be a small sparkle in a crescent shape between the base of the Aggrad Mountains and the Bay of Gifts.

Notable locations

 * Dalen's Closet: A beach resort in Shammel, run by a halfling named Guath. This was where Vox Machina stayed during their Winter's Crest vacation in, and where Percival and Vex'ahlia's destination wedding was to take place. The resort is nice but not busy, and features a beach of hammocks next to a wide, single-story tavern.
 * A small boutique in the city was where Pike had her hair beaded and colored blue.

Dagen Underthorn told Beauregard Lionett that he had plans to retire in Shammel Bay.

Trivia

 * One of the T-shirt designs offered by Geek & Sundry features Dalen's Closet, with Vex and Trinket chasing Vax on the beach.
 * "Shamal", the spelling used to refer to Shammel in all transcripts from the first two campaigns, is the Arabic word for "North" or "the North Wind", fitting for a port city located in northern Marquet.
