Legends of Greyhawk - Regions

The Domain of Greyhawk

The lands, towns, and villages under the Free City’s control form the Domain of Greyhawk. From the treacherous Mistmarsh and the rugged Cairn Hills to the rolling Plains of Greyhawk, danger and discovery lie in wait. At the heart of it all stands the Free City itself, a glittering jewel of wealth, power, and ambition. Merchants and mercenaries, scholars and schemers, nobles and knaves all vie for influence in its bustling streets and crowded markets. It is said that whether seeking fortune or fleeing fate, all find their way to the City of Greyhawk, which welcomes the bold and the broken alike. This is a land where fortunes can be won or lost in a single night, where forgotten tombs and hidden vaults whisper promises of glory, and where the brave are called to shape their destiny and carve their names into legend.

The Realms of Ferrond

The fertile lands of the Central Flanaess, from the Lortmil Mountains to the Nyr Dyv, form the region which old timers sometimes refer to collectively as “Old Ferrond.” Since the fall of the Great Kingdom, these realms have reorganized into an allied collection of smaller, independent states comprised of the Kingdom of Furyondy, the Archclericy of Veluna, and the Viscounty of Verbobonc. Together they stand as a bastion of hope against the darkness for all those who hold fast to the ideals of the common good. Knightly orders defend the realms against incursions from the Land of Iuz and the Horned Society. They call upon the strong of heart to brandish the bright blade for honor and glory any time evil dares to threaten their peace!

The Free Lands of Highfolk

The region of Highfolk clings to the western edge of the Vesve Forest, bordered by the Yatil Mountains and the Kingdom of Furyondy, with the Velverdyva River flowing through its heart. It is a rugged land of free folk who savor prosperity and endure hardship together. Life on the frontier is forged through survival, so communities are often tightly knit. Magic is scarce, ancient, hidden, and often dangerous. The Vesve holds secrets even elves will not name. But there is incredible opportunity here as well for those who seize it. This is a land where heroic tales begin: where wilderness meets civilization, where unexpected heroes rise, and where the land itself may one day speak their name.

Secret Region

The secret region shall remain as it is: A secret. That’s right, it’s so secret that even Iuz dares not say its name, let alone drop a hint. Look, guessing is no good either, because you’re not going to get the answer until it’s too late, and besides, all the suspense is just going to torment you anyway. And if you’re going to get all huffed up and angry, well… too bad! Zagyg just dropped by to say that you’re cursed to live your life as a joke. Ha ha!

Specials

Specials, a.k.a. Multi-Table Events can happen in any region, but they are different enough that we gave them their own region as well. Specials have multiple tables working together towards a shared goal. Chaotic, confusing, and a great time.

Special  is an adventure that does not follow the normal adventure template. Usually they are adventures that are played with multiple tables where all the tables are working towards a shared goal, and success or failure at one table can and will influence things for the other tables…
