Introduction to Locations
The lands described here are but a small part of the expansive world of Greyhawk, a setting filled with ancient histories, untold wonders, and endless adventures. Centered around the Sheldomar Valley and its surrounding territories, these kingdoms and regions lie on the western edge of the Flanaess. The year is 576 Common Year, a time of tenuous alliances, rising tensions, and new opportunities for both heroes and villains alike.
The Kingdoms can be found on the Realm Map.
Kingdom of Keoland
The oldest and most powerful of the Flanaess kingdoms, Keoland is a beacon of civilization and order. Its fertile lands, bustling trade routes, and strong monarchy make it a dominant force in the region. However, its influence wanes at the fringes, where the rule of law clashes with wild frontiers and rebellious spirits.
Yeomanry
Nestled in a mountainous region, the Yeomanry is a fiercely independent land ruled by its citizenry. Known for its rugged terrain and hardy people, it stands as a bastion of freedom, where governance is democratic, and every able-bodied individual is ready to defend their homeland.
Dutchy of Ulek
The Duchy of Ulek is a flourishing, verdant land ruled by a noble elven house. Its rolling hills and tranquil forests are home to thriving communities of elves, humans, and halflings who coexist in harmony. The duchy's wealth comes from its agriculture, fine craftsmanship, and robust trade.
County of Ulek
The County of Ulek is a halfling-gnome territory defined by its industrious spirit and resilient people. Bordering the wildlands of the Pomarj, it serves as a bulwark against incursions while maintaining its prosperity through mining and trade.
Principality of Ulek
Governed by a dwarven prince, the Principality of Ulek is a rugged land rich in mineral resources. Its imposing mountains are dotted with mines and fortresses, while its forges produce weapons and armor of exceptional quality.
Hold of the Sea Princes
A confederation of pirate lords and maritime traders, the Hold of the Sea Princes dominates the southern coasts. Its lawless nature and mercantile ambition create a volatile society, where fortunes rise and fall on the tide.
Pomarj
Once a prosperous land, the Pomarj has fallen into ruin and chaos. Now controlled by orcs and other monstrous races, it is a dangerous and unpredictable region, shunned by most. The Pomarj serves as a stark reminder of the consequences of greed and betrayal.
Each kingdom and region holds countless opportunities for adventure, from courtly intrigue and political machinations to wilderness exploration and battles against fearsome foes. Together, they create a dynamic world where every corner has a story waiting to be told.
