Sorrial

The Continent of Sorrial is the large continent on which the campaign takes place. As far as the people of Sorrial are aware, Sorrial is the only landmass on the planet (interchangably called Earth and Sorrial).

Sorrial is divided along the north-south by the massive Dirun Mountains. This mountain range represents the only mountains on the continent. They are exceptionally steep, rising sharply to above cloud level before even the lowest valley. As a result, trade is forced either through the Kingdom of Wilfor to the north or the Grand Duchy of Giljak to the south.

Two oceans surround Sorrial, with no particular boundaries between them. The Ocean of Niron to the south and the Agron ocean to the north. With the exception of several mountainous islands to the south of the Diurn Mountains, there are no islands that surround Sorrial. To date, all voyages to explore these oceans have either returned empty handed or not returned at all.

Sorrial contains a myriad of different ecosystems. In the west, the Priic forest extends from Maar to just north of Repnael. The Desert of Unus borders the Priic forest and the western face of the Diurn Mountains. The Anitric Plains cover the Kingdom of Wilfor and the heart of what was once the Empire of Asecas - and is now the Viceroyalty of the Empire of Asecas. South of the Anitric Plains and the Werran forest is the snowy tundras of the Ventic Plains.

The Ventic Plains are kept in a state of perpetual cold by Sorrials ring. It casts a shadow across Sorrial that blocks some of the sunlight bound for the Ventic Plains. The plains are still briefly fertile during the summer months (when the ring's shadow moves into the Ocean of Niron). Because of the shadow's obvious and predictable motion, the crops are rarely ruined by an early frost.

The continent is dotted by 9 cataclysms: (in no particular order)
 * 1) Racil
 * 2) Repnael
 * 3) Dotiel
 * 4) Asecas
 * 5) Aleros
 * 6) Onon
 * 7) Maar
 * 8) Hariel
 * 9) Traatonor [Note: While the map says Traatoron, common use has morphed it to Traatonor]
