Noxus is a city that resembles its inhabitants – dark and sinister. The
foundation of the city was built into a granite mountain, and a fair
portion of the city lies underground. Structures are built on top of and
into the mountain itself. A tremendous man-made moat, filled with a
witches’ brew of foul and putrid liquids, circumnavigates the city; the
moat serves as an powerful means of cutting off access to Noxus through
but a few key points, all of which are heavily guarded. At the top of
the granite mountain resides the headquarters of the Noxian High
Command; the mountain itself vaguely resembles a demonic skull from a
distance. Beyond the huge city walls lie the Noxian denizens that are
too poor (or not lucky enough) to live inside.The subterranean city
level of Noxus is almost as large as the top level, with numerous shops,
taverns, and residences comprising the seedy underbelly of the
notorious city-state. Noxus contains the largest network of dungeons
anywhere on Runeterra, with numerous Noxian nobles claiming ownership
over the various labyrinthine passages and subterranean rooms.
