Rimmen is a major city in the eastern region of Elsweyr. The city has served as a home to mercantile caravans since before time was recorded by men.[1] It was once home to a gladiatorial team known as the Crushers.[OOG 1] The dominant architectural feature of the city is its ivory-colored stone. It has been used to make domed buildings along with canals and plazas.[2]:184 Much of the city was built by the Akaviri,[3] including a shrine known as the Tonenaka, said to hold ten thousand statues.[2]:164 Rimmen is a cosmopolitan city and is home to a variety of races other than Khajiit. Ya'Tirrje, the Gold-Cat, ran a prosperous drug smuggling operation in the city during the Third Era.[1]
After the Oblivion Crisis and the disintegration of the Empire, Rimmen became an independent kingdom, enforcing its own laws and employing its own guards, known as the Regulators.[2]:186
