* = capitol
Criksrad is
a land that was lightly populated with very few barbarians at the time of
the invastion by the Hestrillites. The land was mainly inhabited by
refugees from Varanady and elves from the Lorish forest and other
humanoids. When the Hestrillites invaded the barbarian territories, the
inhabitants of the lands which had no name (later to be called "Criksrad")
were largely unaffected by the fighting that raged on mainly to the north.
They had seen enough war and desolation brought on by the Queen of
Varanady and wanted no part of the fighting so stayed out of it.
When the
barbarians were eventually beaten back to the south, Regdon's forces
invaded the Criksrad lands and were met with no resistance. The territory
was indoctrinated as part of the newly-formed Kingdom of Regdon, much to
the chagrin of the former Varanady citizens. For many years the people
there chafed at the taxation and rulership of the lords put in charge of
their lands. In the year 722 in the 4th Age of Man, a large force of drow
elves poured out of the western Votack Mountains and began making their
way south toward the vital trade ports on the shores of the Tarsis Gulf.
In true
fashion, the former Varanadians offered no resistance and allowed the dark
army to move unchallenged toward their destination despite the fevered
calls to arms by the Regdon lords. A man known as Edbar Criksrad stepped
up and began negotiating with the king. He said he would rally the people
and push the drow back to their underground lairs. The price would be to
give him rulership over the lands, which would become a barony in his
name. The king relented but made it clear that the newly named territory
of Criksrad would still be part of the Kingdom of Regdon. True to his
word, Ebar rallied his people to arms. They marched against the drow, who,
most surprisingly, retreated with nary a drop of blood spilled. This was a
great relief to all, and the victory over the drow was celebrated across
the kingdom.
After the
fall of Varanady, Edbar was approached by Count Maharool. Both lands had
lost many men in the conflict that had nearly swallowed the entire
southern half of the continent, and each leader agreed that they were
owed. Banding together, they demanded independence from the King of
Regdon, threatening war if their demands weren't met. Having lost so many
of his forces, not to mention facing the threat of losing his southern
port, the king gave in. The two lands became independent countries after
signing solid alliances with each other for mutual protection and trade.
Points of Interest
Aigar River
This river flows from the Votack
Mountains before connecting with the Terek River.
Dressis Swamp
A major swamp, the Dressis borders Southern Regdon and the Hell
Haunts. This body of water is a major barrier to any foot traffic in
and out of Criksrad. The Dressis if inhabited by many unsavory
creatures, such as hobgoblins, kuo-toa, and trolls.
Gloridon Desert
This vast sun baked wasteland is a
treacherous place to live for any creature, even those adapted to such an
environment. As with any desert wasteland, food and water are at a
premium, and are often used by humanoids living there as currency to
purchase what they need.
Gnoll's Eye
A rocky forest of darkness inhabited by many foul creatures, most
notably gnolls.
Iron Horns
A cluster of mountains located in
the northwestern part of Criksrad bordering Regdon. So named for the rich
deposits of iron, the mountains have long been mined by the duergar for
below its peaks. The crags are home to many unsavory creatures, and few
dare to explore there unless heavily armed and well prepared. The rumor is
that a powerful wizard named Potiphar resides there, torturing and
experimenting on those unfortunate enough to fall within his snare.
Lorish Forest
The grand Lorish is home to a great many elves and makes up half of
Criksgrad proper.
Rhous River
Flowing from
the Graget Mountains southwest to the Tarsis Gulf, the Rhous separates the
countries of Maharool and Criksrad. The mighty river is an important byway
that brings goods back and forth to the peoples of both countries.
Rocroost Mountains
The Rocroosts run from the eastern edge of Regdon and into Criksrad,
separating the two contries from the Gloridon Desert. As per the
name, the spires are well populated with the legendary Rocs. There
are also many dwarves, orcs, goblins, kobolds, and other
creatures here.
Sea Wood
Bordering the Lorish Forest, Sea Wood kisses the Tarsis Gulf and is
home to tribes of sea elves.
Southern Plains
These plains are filled with hundreds of miles of golden grass and
wild wheat. At times the thundering from the hooves of the herds of
wild beasts roaming the plains can be heard for miles.
Tarsis Gulf
Flowing from
the Graget Mountains southwest to the Tarsis Gulf, the Rhous separates the
countries of Maharool and Criksrad. The mighty river is an important byway
that brings goods back and forth to the peoples of both countries.
Terek River
This winding body of water runs
for hundreds of miles. It begins as the Espris, which flows into the
Nentack Lake, then the Dressis Swamp, through Criksrad, until finally
emptying into the Tarsis Gulf. The Terek is a major roadway for trade
between Regdon and Criksrad.
Votack Mountains
A relatively small portion of the Votack Mountains touches Criksrad.
This range binds Criksrad, the Gloridon Desert, Brighkly, and the
Dwarven Kingdom.
Winduroz Channel
The Winduroz (dwarven for "winding") Channel starts from the waters
flowing from the southern underside of the Votack Mountains. The
waterway expands into a crooked channel that proceeds west out of
the Dwarven Kingdom. It forks at one point, with the southern reach
flowing between Dwarven Kingdom and Kerus before emptying out into
the Bay of Urol. The western fork continues on between the southern
shores of Criksrad and Kerus before emerging into the Tarsis Gulf.
