So'Ellar
The magical home of the sea-elves, this city is completely hidden beneath
the waves of the glistening Allorah Sea. The sea-elves have found solace
in religion and have a large temple which shows this devotion. A large
mine of precious to semiprecious stones is rumored to be found in the
city and rumors of a large trove of valuable treasures within have persisted
long from the past.
Meridia
Its location, a short distance north of the Saldan River, makes it the
center of trade for the continent of Oalamara. This city is the primary
home to humans and half-elves and the visiting place of many. It is governed
by a council of twelve elected officials and is one of the only democratic
regions in the realm.
Astral Congruent
Not much is known of this world as it hidden from the eyes of mortals.
The Gith, Githyanki and Githzerai all originate from this denizen and
travel the world using the portals from their own world. It is said that
non-astral creatures will go insane if they stay in the astral plane too
long. The Founder rules there and his advisor is speculated to be an enormously
powerful mind flayer.
Chutuee
This orcish city lies deep within the recesses of a cave in the northern
lands. A violent people, the orcs are very warlike in nature. Unlike dwarves,
they did learn to forge weapons from a love of creation, they learned
due to necessity. They are constantly at war with other races, and with
each other, over minerals and resources.
Elindale
Home of the surface elves, Elindale is ruled by a king and queen who reside
in a large palace. The elves are peaceful and will not tolerate the taking
of life within the city proper. The surrounding woods by the city bring
life to the citizens and the nearby residents.
Nachstrum
Deep within Oalamara lies the realm of the depraved drow elves. A city
teeming with evil, Nachstrum is home for the Drow and Githyanki and any
dark souls who seek a place to hide from the troubles of the surface.
Two powerful houses rule in Nachstrum and power between them constantly
shifts.
Dagnalrok
Considered one of the wonders of the constructed world, the massive dwarven
stronghold is a vast and sprawling city which protects the valuable mithril
which lies in the surrounding mountains. The clan leader of the city ensures
that the dwarves will prosper from the bounties of the Serril Mountains
whose treasure in valuable minerals will support dwarves for antiquity.
Ogre
and Troll Encampment
This loose arrangement between the Ogres and Trolls represent a horrid
blight on all peace preferring races. The many Ogres and Trolls of the
world are sent from their swampy home into the world to eat and hunt for
things that are shiny.
Lizard Holes
Deep within the underdark is the home of the vile and scavenging Lizardfolk.
The city is loosely ruled by the lizardman chieftain who rules with might
and brutality. Lizards aren't known for their dietary discretion and are
known to eat many races on sight.
Hondarth Village
This peaceful village is deep within the forest and next to a meandering
stream. The halflings call this place home and send out their explorers
to learn about the world which they live in. The village is led by a variety
of council spots which each have a lot of knowledge in one specific area.
Twuelstone Village
The diminutive gnome folk live here and have built themselves a mighty
tower devoted to the wonders of science. Many gadgets come from here and
their notoriety precedes them.
Pixie Forest
Not much is known about these reclusive faeries, save that their home
is deep within the forest and they have kept their presence unknown for
countless generations.
The Manor
Now located on the eastern edge of the Great Desert, this manor was once
a cheery place in the midst of a mystical forest. Since being overtaken
by a dark people, the surrounding area has been infected with disease
and a plague like desert which, each year, encroaches upon the elven forest.
Those who plan a trip to this place had best beware!
Goblin Caverns
Hidden away from the world is the home of the Goblins. These evil creatures
were created from the dawn of time and have chosen to live their lives
within caverns, hidden away from the world. To venture to the caverns
is death to any pixies.
