Kevins Game

Ill make his own area when i get a chance

mages: two organizations exist for formal training,the colledge a city
size school just off the north west coast connected to the main land by
a bridge of light,the other organization is the wizard guild of
greyhawk,but most wizards are trained by self taught hedge wizards


folkvardr: "guardians of the people"

barbarian tribe who dominate the middle grasslands of the
continent,these barbarians revere the power of the dire lions who
inhabit their hunting grounds,the fokvadr are a nomadic tribe who follow
the migrations of the antelope deer and asses of the grasslands


stronghold: one of three and the biggest keeps on the border between the
north and south it houses 15,000 knights in three different orders

order of the brilliant sun: organization who bases their ideals on the
teaching of pelor,they are not a religious order but a military one

order of the mace: these knights follow the teachings of st
cuthbert,also a military and not a religious zealot group

the knight protector:(this is a prestige class from complete warrior)
this groups teaching are for the return of chivary,

the biggest order with the most knights is the order of the sun,then the
mace followed by the knights protector

the keep is controlled by a council of 9 three knights from each
order,each with and equal vote,though their orders are of different
sizes


legends

the white wizard:(this legend is similiar too our legends like johnny
apple seed,paul bunyon,etc)

the lead hero of the "wizards war" everbody knows of him but stories
grow with each and every telling,founder of the colledge of wizards,and
the "wizards castle at greyhawk"

the catalysm: the continent of flaenas was not always cursed,but it did
house a major battle between two epic wizards,when their magic collided
a magical event occured and the land was forever surrounded by the
mysterious mist
that it has today,thos who enter the mist never return,but every so
often others come out of the mist and find themselves trap here

the war between good and evil or the north and south: 5,300 years ago
thousands of black ships came out of the mist and landed on the south
end of flaenas,orcs goblins,drow creatures never seen came and made
their home, one human women was on one of those ships and was pregnant
with a child from a demon prince,she gave birth to the child who grew
into his demonic power after 200 years he controlled all of the south
and the demi god iuz declared war on the north,the war lasted over a
hundred years with evil invading most of the north,this was a time of
horror for those people of the north,the reapers ran loose on most of
the human villiages (the colledge being the only city a the time)orcs
invaded the elven woods burning and chopping down their beloved tree
homes,and the dwarves lost one of their ancestial homes to the drow,the
white wizard during this time and several other heros banded the north
together and repelled the evil hordes(at least to their original
borders),when it was done and over the white wizard and iuz disappeared


dragons: have not been seen for over 4,900 years and believe to be
legends
