Broken Scimitar is a Tarkuusan military outpost on the Skeleton Coast near the Dawnflower Refuge. Built in Y9108*, about five centuries after the first arrival of the crusaders of Sarenrae, the fort consists of four massive concentric earthwork rings, with a maze of underground tunnels connecting subterranean chambers.
From the highest point in Sarenrae's Hold, the crusaders can see Broken Scimitar on the horizon, a constant reminder of what they fight against. The attacks they occasionally send against the fort are a minor annoyance to Tarkuus, which only maintains the outpost to keep an eye on the crusader state.
