Island of Dresta
Geographic Features
Aebasan Sea
Bloodwood
Remote and semi-legendary, Bloodwood lies on the northern peninsula of the Island of Drallia. Those who are even aware of its existence believe it to be infested by goblin and troll tribesmen scurrying in the strange, overgrown ruins of some long-forgotten empire.
Eternal Ocean
Tangar Sea
A remote stretch of water connecting the Aebasan Sea and the Eternal Ocean along southwestern Aurea, Tangar has a reputation for being a wild and dangerous body of water, with unexpected doldrums, chaotic winds and surprisingly heavy storms, particularly in the autumn months. Recently, there are rumors of strange, black ships plying her waters and even more alien vessels with odd, ribbed sails. As most respectable merchants have little reason to cross the Tangar, these rumors are as yet unconfirmed.
Nations
Dallea
A remote land mostly ignored in the past, Dallea has recently come under the rule of an ancient being known only as the Dread King. Rumors persist that this Dread King is building an army of goblins, giants and their ilk to take over neighboring states on the island of Dresta. Most are willing to ignore these rumors, given the remoteness of the region, but those few who have tried to go to Dallea to investigate have failed to return.
Makuga
The remote western shore of the island of Dresta is rumored to have been the heart of some long-forgotten Empire overrun by goblins and their ilk. Few in civilized lands, if any, have heard of the territory of Makuga, though certainly there is some reason the goblin tribes that once infested the shore are fleeing across the mountains into the service of Dallea.
Mendar
A remote collection of independent port towns on the island of Dresta, Mendar has long been a refuge of pirates and brigands, mostly raiding south along the shores of Gallorea. Rumor suggests that some of the pirate lords have been working together in an uneasy alliance, though few have been able to make the trip to find out just who is behind their organization.
Thevaste
Believed to have once been a part of a powerful and ancient Empire on the island of Dresta, Thevaste is believed to today be little more than a collection of fishing villages lining the bay, huddled in fear of raiding goblin tribesmen from the highlands to the north. Little else is known about this remote part of the world.
