	Having access to both siege construction and great magic, they employ siege weapons called Mage Throwers. They are shaped after catapults, ballistae, and other siege weapons but are designed to throw magic. Some don’t obey the laws of physics, and others behave like Drake siege weaponry but hurl magical firepower. Some are so strange as to be completely odd, like a wide, serrated turret that simply casts an enlarged [Razorwind Disc] and cuts anything in half for two hundred feet.<ref name=":0" />		Having access to both siege construction and great magic, they employ siege weapons called Mage Throwers.

	The buildings within seem shorter than in the other Walled Cities and have domed roofs. It has more Mage's Guilds than any other city. This may be because Fissival has the most space out of the Walled Cities, and thus less need for elevation.		The buildings within seem shorter than in the other Walled Cities and have domed roofs. It has more Mage's Guilds than any other city. This may be because Fissival has the most space out of the Walled Cities, and thus less need for elevation.

	The city's Grand Plazas have gates demarcating them from the rest of the city, and a huge four-faced sun-clock anchored to a central fixture at the center. They use Grand Spells that siphon a bit of magic from those in the vast spell circle to grant them enchantments at certain times of the day. The more people are present, the longer lasting and more efficacious the spell. The Bliss Plaza activates at noon and Strength Plaza activates at ten, before most labour-intensive jobs start. ~~Their~~ used to be a Plaza for every hour of the day, but some failed and are no longer in use.<ref name=":1" />		The city's Grand Plazas have gates demarcating them from the rest of the city, and a huge four-faced sun-clock anchored to a central fixture at the center.

	In the heart of the city is the sprawling complex of the ''Draconae Scholarium''. It is an inner city in its own right, possibly larger than [[Liscor]], with high-elevation walkways like Wistram and [[Salazsar]]. Some of its towers are truly magical, like one covered in glass, odd half-spheres of crystal and an entirely cylindrical top that might be the largest scrying orb in existence.<ref name=":1" />		In the heart of the city is the sprawling complex of the ''Draconae Scholarium''.

	Fissival's teleportation network was once used to connect all of the Walled Cities, and let them sent resources and reinforcements to one another. It is managed in the Teleportarium, below the Draconae Scholarium, which is also where the enchantments that permit Fissival to levitate are managed. It is a vast underground space filled with cargo docks and magical sending spaces. The network can reconfigure itself and has one of the most complete maps in the world, which includes Izril's new lands in perfect detail. The indicators on the map glow green for a ready delivery, red for a problem, and orange with a violet center for an abnormal status.<ref name=":2" />		Fissival's teleportation network was once used to connect all of the Walled Cities, and let them sent resources and reinforcements to one another.
