Adv ideas:
Gwinn – unknown raiders from the south – not nakrians, but excellent sailors like them, same tactics – gaernians
Pine tribes in the north
Dark gods building hidden temples
Dreams of dragons let loose and must be stopped
Old celestial cities on the peninsulas- the high civilization before the massive wars reduced their population = mayan flavor
The fallen cities in the darklands – inhabited by orrish mostly, all things of value to them taken – but things of value to adventurers is a known lure for food.
= fake hunt… pcs part of orrish letting them win to lure others
Nakria – empire of the south and the celestial cities, land of shape changers and wars with the outlaw cults, castes, and servants of the Olani.
Frozen cities and towns of the north, as well as battle sites hold much treasure – none needed by lich lords.
Old celestial ‘houses’ – places where the celestials dwelt, some may have inbred servants still there – hearltands, mountains (tended to dwell amongst the clouds – possible even in them, darklands – even orrish fear some places. Poelitz built over the top of the house of Isir/Isis = example. Each celestial may have had multiple, some ransacked by other celestials and sealed and left – seals are breaking.
Orrish raid mountain food valleys of ducateon.
Ducateon and human clash over mountain valley rights for food.
Human vs. plains elf in south merchant cities.
Grollen vs plains elf
Grollen vs. umbakian
Grollen vs human (though they are welcome still in the south and far north)
Elves – ynth into abyss, lost defenders in tree line, lost many fighting fires, then the great drain creates territory ceded to half breeds on their border – NO MORE! Enough is enough – have been xenophobic since then
Elves vs. half breed
Human half breed troubles
Ducateon get along with half breeds just fine from a moral standpoint – but can only be worker caste – its just a historical fact they cannot efficiently function in others. Of all the races, ducateon and grollen do not breed outside no matter the issue – it would have to be rape or 1 in a million ‘love’ os strange fascination.
