Introduction

Chorazin, also referred to as the Damned, was a village in northern Galilee, two and a half miles from Capernaum on a hill above the northern shore of the Sea of Galilee. The place was one of the mightiest Baali fortresses ever known; along with Tyre and Damascus, it was regarded as a holy place for followers of the Path of Screams.

History

The Baali fortress at Chorazin, also described as a sepulcher or acropolis (the main part of which may have existed underground), was a stronghold of the infernalists during the Second Baali War. According to "Clanbook: Baali", when Nergal returned under the guise of Shaitan, he moved the center of his activities to Chorazin, abandoning Mashkan-Shapir and leaving it to ruin. He had done so to protect the resting place of the demon Namtaru against his siblings Moloch and the Unnamed, as well as from the other clans (as it suffered constant attacks by many foes, primarily by Salubri and Assamites).
