Riddleport and other city stat blocks?

Hi all, I plan on running second darkness soon using the P1E ruleset and was wondering if there were updated stat blocks for the cities Riddleport, zirnakaynin, kyonin capital, etc.

I know my players are going to want to go shopping in those places and I'm having trouble finding their blocks in a non 3.5 way(at least Riddleport)


Riddleport has a stat block and two-page spread in Varisia, Birthplace of Legends.


Crud, just missed the edit window.

As far as I can tell, Zirnakaynin and Iadara haven't been updated since Second Darkness.

Is the Riddleport entry in "Varisia, Birthplace of Legends" correct for Base Value?

Per Game Mastery Guide, the qualities that modify base value have their percentages summed and then applied once. I get 90% from combining its qualities. If I use 90% once, this is what it works out to:

8,000 GP * 0.90 = 7,200 GP
8,000 + 7,200 = 15,200 GP.

Is the final 15,200 value supposed to get multiplied again by 2 for some reason? Because that's what seems to have happened with the printed entry. That or Riddleport used Metropolis as the starting point for Base Value, even though everything else in the block uses Large City as the starting point. Just seems like a mistake exclusive to its Base Value unless I'm missing something?


I know it's a necro, but I'm getting ready to run this and I think it probably is a mistake. Riddleport's base value would be dramatically higher than Magnimar's or Korvosa's, even though they're the leading commercial city-states in the region. (it'd make sense to give Riddleport some kind of "Black Market" advantage, but still)

Hey, I hate to necro this again as well, but was this ever answered anywhere?

We're starting an adventure near Riddleport and wanted to verify the correct Base Value. The Base Value for Riddleport in "Varisia: Birthplace of Legend" seems to be twice as large as it should be. As pointed out up-thread, shouldn't it be 15,200 gp unless there's some reason that Riddleport (a large city) should be using the base value stats of a metropolis?

Thanks for any clarification!
