They eat caravans whole along the Trade Way, love to raid the camps of outlanders who will all be too dead to hit back, and dream of ruling all Faerûn. Avoid the place or be eaten, as the old maps say."I think the country is still united under Saed, the vampire lord of Vaelen.The only drawback is the climate.  Veldorn is probably a little more temperate and warm than Barovia.  However, Veldorn does have the Giant's Belt, Curna and Thrulaliel Mountains nearby.  One could argue that there is some type of clime anomaly that makes the land colder.  After all this is fantasy -- e.g. Faerun has a desert in the northwest [magically created by the Phaerimm] where once fertile ground stood.</blockquote>
