Allento (ɽr!o)
Allento City is a popular stop among travellers. Its warm and humid climate supports dense jungle and hot weather creatures. Most of the city is built into the ocean floor, but a portion of it is built up on shore, mostly out of stone that was excavated in building the underwater parts of town.
Being largely underwater, most of the city is best suited for triton. Even so, there are substantial populations of humans and elves on the surface.
Allento has a thriving tourism trade and is known worldwide as the friendliest stop on the mercantile journey.

Founding and History
Allento City was founded in 1721BNE by previously nomadic triton who banded together to fortify against growing opposition undersea from sahuagin and on land from human and gnome expansion. Allento's spires of stone are specifically designed for amphibious life, giving them a home that is challenging to most others; even among other amphibious creatures, few are able to live equally easily above the surface or below.
Demographics
Allento City is more diverse than the rest of the greater Allento area, with modern extension on land the city itself provides a variety of accommodations suitable to most types of people. Triton are overwhelmingly the most common, but elves and humans are fairly common as well.
Gnomes, kobolds, sahuagin, and naga are unusual here and would face significant difficulties being accepted. Salamanders, yuan-ti, dwarves and centaurs are rare as well but aren't especially unwanted.
