[QUOTE="Jacob the Impaler, post: 2999127, member: 42087"] I'm gonna put all the info in the first post when I'm done and I'll try to get my hands on some of those materials. I'll defininitely be snatching those gods, johnsemlak. Thanks a lot! It's kinda cool to know an actual Russian is helping me out. I swear someday I'll come up with names, too. Geography: The region is roughly 500 miles wide east to west and 400 miles north to south, about Montana-sized. The climate is similar to Romania or other Balkan countries. South Coast: The most hospitable region is the small, flat coastline in the south. It is the site of the region's only major port, the corrupt trade city of Bankla. The area is marshy, and contains a small ethnic group of humans known by most as "swampers". They live in the swamps along the edge of the Needle Forest in houses built on stilts and live on fishing and peat harvest. They are mainly overlooked by the regional Imperial Government and few pay taxes or pledge loyalty to the Empire. They speak a pidgin form of common called swamptalk that most common-speakers pick up after a few minutes. They revere a mysterious witch-godess named Baba Yaga. Depending on who you speak to, she can be either terrifying or strangely benevolent. Trolls and will-o-wisps are common in this area, as well as the zombies of people who become lost or drown in the marshes. The Needle Forest: North of the narrow South Coast is the vast expanse of land known as the Needle Forest. Ancient, gnarled pine trees thrust through the rocky soil of the foothills. A few trecherous roads and hardy communities exist in the shadows of the forest. Attempts to tame the forest always end in distaster. Lycanthropes, undead, goblin bandits, trolls, worgs and other horrors lurk in the shadows, struggling for dominance and taking advantage of travelers and peasants. It is also the home of the vampire queen Voctorida. She dwells in an ancient stronghold atop a bluff long abandoned by decent inhabitants and maintains some degree of authority over the area's intelligent undead. A majority of the region's small elf population live in relatively tame stretches of the forest. They are mainly self-reliant, using magic and trickery to foil invaders. They sometimes seek help from the human population, and usually try to fool their potential allies into giving them more than what was agreed. MORE TO COME!!! [/QUOTE]
