It is intended for a Church of Hextor oriented campaign that I will be DMing sometime in the near future. The pc's will be members of the Church and assigned tasks to further the its influence. I will be posting the continent, the realm and the specific town that the campaign begins in, and also matters relating to the clergy. I also have made some maps and will be posting them aswell. Sorry about the large image size but I couldnt get them much smaller with photoshop.Here goesThe Dominion of Narras-Caer The Dominion of Narra-Caer (Na-Ra-Seer) spans over a vast and ancient continent situated between the Topian and Estealean Seas. The geography of the continent varies greatly, ranging from the frostbitten wastelands of the south to the oppressive heat of the northern deserts. An arid and volcanic mountain range, known only as the Peaks of Doom, seperates the northern and southern halves of the kingdom. Both the southern and northern lands are divided into numerous realms, each ruled over by a Noble House in a system akin to Feudalism. The nobles are given their positions of power by the king, and are expected to uphold his laws and fulfill his demands. The Kingdoms capitol lies in Asyrun, one of the many realms of the Northern land. And it is in this realm that the almighty King, Azar IV resides. From his great palace of gold the king commands the vast armies of Narras-Caer and oversees the furtherment of his domain. The Northern LandsThe realms of the northern lands are industrious, and its towns and cities constantly bustle with activity. Cultures and races too numerous to name exist in relative harmony, and the king holds prejudice only against those who denounce his rule or resist taxes. While a large portion of the population still remain commoners who are in effect the property of the aristocracy, a strong influx of middle class artisans and merchants has begun to take root, indicating the beginning of a golden era in commerce and growth. The north eastern realm of Clameran shares its eastern border with an un-named power, with which a state of war has existed for an indeterminant number of years. The war has been an on and off affair riddled with years of relative peace followed by sudden bursts of hostility. How the war started or why it still continues is unknown to the average commoner and likely will remain so, unless he is conscripted for duty. The Southern LandsWhile the northern lands are ordered and consolidated centres of power, the southern lands, colonised only for their plentiful resources, are by comparison, wild and untamed. However they are by no means barbaric or even uncivlised, but simply lack the massive population and grand nature of the north. Over the years various factors including the resurgence in the war, and more recently the eruption of the Peaks of Doom, have led both the commoners and nobles of the southern lands to become isolated both physically and idealogicaly from their northern counterparts. A gradual, if not visible, breakdown in communications and heirarchy has become apparent amd many would agree that the lack of communiques with the king has allowed the noble houses to slide into corruption and apathy.While all still pledge allegiance to the king, isolation from the ways of the northern lands has led the noble houses to take a more independant approach to their rulership. Due to his duties the king rarely leaves the palace on non official business, and only a miniscule percentage of the population has ever seen him. Many inhabitants of the southern land doubt that he has even set foot in their realm and some even doubt his existence. As such the impression may be given that this isolation lends itself to a unique brand of liberty, unatainable to those under a strong monarchical influence. However, the lack of regulation and subsequent corruption, often allows for more...insidious forces to manifest in the minds and hearts of the people.Attached: Map of Narras-Caer</blockquote>
