Elencor
Elencor is the world in which the campaign takes place.
Geography
Elencor is a "ring world": a world set on the interior of a rotating cylinder. The cylinder's rotation causes centripetal force mimicking gravity.
In Elencor's case, it spins roughly twice per hour, keeping everyone on it experiencing ~1g of acceleration via centripetal force. The cylinder's radius is ~800 km or ~500 miles. The cylinder's circumference is ~5000 km or ~3000 miles. The cylinder’s height is ~500km or ~300 miles. Thus, if flattened out, the habitable area would be like a rectangle roughly 10 times wider than it is tall.
In the center of the cylinder, a sun-like light shines on half of the interior, spinning every 10 hours, making a 10 hour day-night cycle.
On the habitable interior of the cylinder, the denizens have the cardinal directions, based on an equivalent experience of the "sun"'s light's movement: the light shines in the east, sweeping westward.
In the north and south, ~70 mile tall shiny metallic cliffs rise up.
