Geography and Regions

Oppidan Peninsula

The Oppidan Peninsula is a lush green peninsula that stands out in the barren wastes and deserts of Pteris. ITs position has made it a home for many communities of traders and fisherman. This not only makes it one of Pteris busiest regions, but also one of the most inhabited regions in all the realms. But this has also turned the peninsula into a center for many of Quelmar's major conflicts, as its valuable land and tactical positioning for seafaring ships makes it coveted by many.

Flaughtland Deserts

The Flaughtland Deserts are harsh and dangerous. The region's sweltering heat requires special accommodations to survive in and the stability of the terrain makes anything built upon it sink into the earth over time. The lack of natural resources here have made the locals hardened, but also heavily reliant on one another, forming tight knit communities. The most notable of these communities are the Seven Cities.

The Delta Serpentine

The Delta Serpentine is a massive subterranean river system that flows beneath the Flaughtland Deserts that starts somewhere in the Fiddlehead Mountains, and heads west until it runs directly under the sinking city of Al'Adeaf and continues until it lands in a massive subterranean basin run by the Merca people. Many locals believe it is the flow of the underground river that causes structures in the deserts to sink.

The Tavorel River

The Tavorel River is a vast river that separates the Flaughtland Deserts from the Oppidan Peninsula. It is notable for both hiding a portal to the Elemental Plane of Water beneath its flow, and for being a major battleground during Realm War II.
