R'lyeh was a city of Atlantis known for the scholars of magic that resided in that city.

During the events of Ragnarok, Morgan le Fay seized the ancient Cosmic Cube and used its power to rip a hole in reality. C'thulu was woken from his rest in Nullspace and manifested in the city. The shock of his arrival drove hundreds of thousands of people insane, not just in the city but across the world.

The archmages of R'lyeh consolidated their power and trapped C'thulu in a bubble of frozen time. They slaved their souls to the enchantment to keep it perpetually powered. The most loyal retainers who survived both Ragnarok and C'Thulu became the tribe known as The Black, a clannish society dedicated to keeping R'lyeh preserved forever so the spell entrapping C'thulu can never be undone. They have held this vigil for 15,000 years, watching over the sunken remains of one of the great cities of Atlantis.
