Altazia

Altazia is the primary setting of this campaign. It is the continent where Eldemar and the various Splinter States are located.

Geography

North: Dominated by vast forests and mountain ranges that remain heavily infested with monsters.
South: Predominantly settled by humans.
Heartland: Altazia's Central Valley, the most densely populated and developed region.

History

Native Altazians were historically conquered by Ikosian refugees fleeing the desertification of Miasina (The Cataclysm). This conquest brought the Ikosian language, the House system, and advanced mana-shaping techniques to the continent.

Magic and Culture

Before the Ikosians, Altazian magic was primarily the domain of the priesthood and secret maternal lineages known as "witches." Witches specialize in familiar magic and ancient potion-making traditions, distinct from modern Alchemy.
