Fort Uriel

Fort Uriel is an imperial fortress in central Hammerfell. It was built on the eastern bank of the Irk River between 3E 297 and 298, by order of Provincial Governor Publius Tremulus. The fortress, named for the late Emperor Uriel Septim V, is fundamental to the Empire's dominion over the province. It is the garrison of the Sixteenth Legion, commanded by Legate Julius Novianus.

The recent revolt in Hammerfell has accentuated Fort Uriel's importance, as the stronghold guards the Irk River and protects Taneth (the imperial headquarters) from the forces of Ramzi at-Iyad in the west.
