[QUOTE="Knightfall, post: 1318265, member: 2012"] [CENTER][ATTACH type="full"]55889[/ATTACH][/CENTER] [COLOR=DarkOrange][B]VARAN PENINSULA:[/B][/COLOR] This area of the [COLOR=DarkOrange][B]Lands of Harqual[/B][/COLOR] isn't as developed as other regions in the [B]Far South[/B], but its getting there. In the past, only the [B]City-state of Zafira[/B] had any real backgroud to it. Most of it was highly secretive, but, in truth, [B]Zafira[/B] remains an enigma to those beyond its walls. What is known about the [B]Varan Peninsula[/B] is it home to a lot of halflings. You could even call it the halfling peninsula. Seriously though, this region is home to a much more diverse population than just halflings, even though they do dominate many of the cities and lands located on the more eastern half of the peninsula. Basically, the area known as the [COLOR=DarkOrange][B]Shuntlands[/B][/COLOR], which stretches from the eastern edge of the [B]Kail Mountains[/B] to the western edge of the Domain of Varan, is the peninsula's major dividing line. If you drew a line through [B]The White Desert[/B] from the [B]City-state of Saifox[/B] to the [B]City-state of Tulsax[/B] it would show the division of politics and racial makeup in the region. The western lands are known for being more wild and vicious in their dealings with outsiders, while the lands surrounding the [B]Halaian Mountains[/B] are more civilized. Both [B]Siafox[/B] and [B]Tulsax[/B] fall on the less amiable side (and are dominated by evil humanoids), while the [B]City-state of Sariae[/B], near [B]Lake Osebye[/B] has its own unique outlook, due to its special circumstance. (It is a "Transformation" city.) [B]Zafira[/B], of course, is considered a civilized place but with a dark, fearful edge due to its history and supposed connection with the undead and the Cursed. Other independent city-states on the Varan Peninsula include [B]Salubia[/B], [B]Sivendul[/B], and [B]Ulderul[/B]. These city-states guard their independence fiercely even when threatened by the humanoids of [B]Siafox[/B] and [B]Tulsax[/B], as well as the denizens of [COLOR=DarkOrange][B]The Myriad Holds[/B][/COLOR]. The two major powers on the Varan Peninsula are the [COLOR=DarkOrange][B]Kingdom of Halaian[/B][/COLOR] and the [COLOR=DarkOrange][B]Domain of Varan[/B][/COLOR]. The Kingdom of Halaian, named after the mountain range of the same name, is a relatively new land, barely a 100 years old, while the Domain of Varan has existed on the peninsula for nearly as long as civilization has existed in the Far South (a long time). (In fact, no one is sure which "Varan" was named first, the peninsula or the domain.) What is known about the two lands is that the Domain of Varan is dominated by (lightfoot) halflings and elves, while the Kingdom of Halaian is dominated by the Torin and (rockwood) gnomes. Both lands also have significant populations of kitt, rakasta, and other non-humans native to the Far South. Humans are very rare in this region. KF72 [/QUOTE]
