Sophanem



Sophanem, the "City of the Dead", is located far south in the Kharidian Desert, right on the edge of the map. Players need to progress far enough into Icthlarin's Little Helper in order to enter this city. The city is currently being afflicted by several plagues. A bank and some shops open after Contact! quest. Players come here to get good thieving experience at Pyramid Plunder.

Travel

 * The Pharaoh's Sceptre can teleport you directly inside the Pyramid Plunder mini-game.
 * The magic carpet system can be used to travel to Sophanem from Pollnivneach
 * Fairy Ring code DLQ is a long way away but probably an option if the above two are not available.

Shortcut
A shortcut just east of the bank at the wall leads to the camp just north of Sophanem and west of the Agility Pyramid.

Bank
There is a bank in Sophanem for use by anyone who has completed the Contact! quest. It is located below the temple in the north-east.
