The Prime Ring

Home to the continent of Ramesh, the Prime Ring is said by its inhabitants to have been created first. There is no scholarship to support these statements and many think it might be propaganda that has passed into legend. Upon this ring sits the continent of Ramesh.

Nation of Zell

The ever expanding nation of Zell is the military powerhouse of the continent. With the mindset

of conquerors, Zell has continued absorbing its neighbors. Yet now, Zell’s influence might finally

be waning. Arket has recently declared its independence from Zell. However, all who are

knowledgeable in politics are aware that this is a temporary setback for Zell. Their military might

is still terrifying and their patron god still desires new lands.

Arket

Loyal to the new god Ark, the people of Arket believe in going back to nature. They embrace the

natural world and attempt to live in harmony with it. Their cities, towns, and hamlets are lush,

filled with life, and wonder. So far, they have survived Zell’s pushes to reclaim it through

powerful diplomatic bonds and the great destruction caused by the shaking of Zell.

Breoa

The seafaring people of Breoa were born into a harsh landscape. Their soil does grow bountiful

crops or produce rich ore deposits. To compensate, the Breoans have become master sailors and

raiders. Their ships sail the seas and rivers of Ramesh, taking anything of value they come

across. They are aided by their ability to tame Elementals. This skill, which is a closely guarded

secret by the Breoans, allows them to infuse their vessels with elemental energy.

Unclaimed Lands

There are some lands in Ramesh that are not claimed by any one nation. They are lands filled

with city states, independent hamlets, and roving warbands. Individual Material Gods rule small

regions, providing power to their few followers. Maps of the land are almost never made.

Cartographers rarely can traverse the lands safely. Furthermore, as soon as a map is made, it is

almost always out of date. Villages can disappear in a night due to both men and monsters. The

Unclaimed Lands are a place of change, chaos, and for some, opportunity.

Draconic Kingdom

At the end of the Sea of Glass, lies the islands that make up the Draconic kingdom. Here, away

from the main continent of Ramesh, the Metallic Dragons rule. Many reptilian Races like

kobolds, troglodytes, and dragonborn hail from these lands.

Kovorov

Home to the northern will, Kovorov rules the northern wastes of Ramesh. Loyal to the god

Vorov, the people of the north hate magic and love vodka. They are the richest nation, with vast

deposits of minerals and ore. While peace loving, Kovorov is thought to be a sleeping giant. If

the nation ever unleashed its vast resources and moved over the Gravetti mountains, Ramesh

might need to band together to stop the oncoming horde.

Aquar

Below the frozen sea to the North of Ramesh, near the edge of the Prime Ring, is the underwater

city of Aquar. At the edge of a deep oceanic trench, Aquar houses all the wonders of the

undersea world. Many wonders from the ancient Genasi empire can be found in Aquar.
