Moran



The Moran Wilds have a decentralized government, comprised almost entirely of city-states. There are some laws at the national level, primarily to (1) keep states from warring with each other, (2) ensure the maintainence of the great road that is the life blood of Moran, and (3) insure that Moran is defensible. Local governments are responsible for taxation and created laws that suit the people of the area. This leads to some significant variation from city to city. For example, while most cities are welcoming to Magic users, Kirmoore, to the southwest, outlaws the use of magic outright. Avalon, on the other hand, has been increasingly interested in the Arcane, even founding a university for its study. Dolas is simple and quaint, while Ca Galle is ostentatious.

Before Egron and Hylandl, Moran was home to several people groups. The Thilde roamed the plains and studied the stars, while the Aulfkull settled the shores and ventured further into the ocean that anyone else on the continent. With the rise of Egron, these two cultures were mostly lost. Some vestiges remain in the architecture of the oldest villages and in the lineages of small, isolated people groups.

Thandur

Comprising the volcano and surrounding region at the end of the Yerksy peninsula, Thandur is a dark, shadowy land where adventurers seldom travel. Those that do tell tails of strange creatures lurking in every shadow and just out of sight. Ludoff, the regions only town, pushes outsiders away and fails to send representatives in any capitol delegation. Few even consider this region a part of greater Moran.

Settled Moran
Most settlements have Egronian heritage, though a few have Aulfkull and Thilde roots.

Luthe Ada

Once a prosperous business center, Luthe Ada is a city of economic disparity, with some of Moran's oldest and wealthiest families and it's most destitute. Nearly three hundred years ago, the city was a bustling metropolis with many lapidaries and mining companies based in the Aftton mountains south of the city. This all changed with the appearance of the Blight in Aftton and the abandonment of the mountain mining village. Many of these mining families set up small shanty villages to the southeast of the city, which eventually developed into the southern and eastern slums.
