Agrias

Geography

Split by a curved mountain range, the continent of Agrias is a harsh and unforgiving place. To the South of the mountains, the foothills quickly give way to thick jungles and swamps, with many places being almost entirely impassable. To the North, the dense forests of the Deep Woods run through the centre of the continent until reaching the northern cliffs. On either side of the forest, sparse grasslands and hills hold the largest nations on Agrias, and as the mountains turn southwards in the East, the plains give way to a brutal desert, which holds the last of the major nations on the continent.
