Fennimar

Character

This realm serves as a retreat and testing ground for solitary elves and a few human rangers who have found favor with Fenmarel Mestarine, the elven god of innocent scapegoats and outcasts.

Power

Fenmarel Mestarine. although this lesser elven god is officially accepted among the elven pantheon dwelling in Arvandor, he usually prefers to spend his time in the lonely stretches of his realm in Limbo.

Description

Fenimar is basically just a wide stretch of lonely forest, dotted with quiet glades, hidden valleys, and clear streams. It's home to all sorts of forest creatures, including anything that can be found in the elven realms of Arborea. Numerous hermits live here as well, though they generally avoid contact with travelers. The realm is also a place for elves to come and grieve on those rare occasions when their equanimity abandons them. It's especially favored as a haven for those who have been wrongly accused of crimes against their people.
In addition, fennimar sometimes serves as a training ground for elven rangers, giving them a chance to hone their skills at woodlore far from more populous realms.
The realm's cupped within a savage mountain range which keeps out stray slaadi and other unwelcome visitors. There are a few passes through these mountains, but they are so arduous that only the most determined travelers have the strength of will to follow them through.

Principal Towns

There are no commnities of any size in Fennimar. For any to exist would violate the nature of the realm. there are, however, many waystations located at various locations throughout the realm, to serve as hospices for the traveler in need. Though typically empty of people, they are kept stocked with food and rough clothing by Fenmarrel's proxies.

Special Conditions

The weather is extremely chaotic in Fennimar. That seems to be the realm's one acquiescence to the backkground nature of the plane. Temperature and precipitation fluctuates by the hour, which makes it difficult for a traveler to dress apropiately. One moment the sun is baking down on a poor berk, then sudeenly a wind arises, bringing a bone-chilling rain. One moment there's not a cloud in the sky, and then a wall of thunderheads rolls accross the heavens, making conditions nearly dark as night. Other than that one oddity, however, the realm is fairly pleasant, if a bit bleak.

Principal Nonplayer Characters

Avery Arrinson has been officially recognized by Fenmarrel Mestarine as Warder of Fennimar. He ranges back and forth across the realm, watching for the occasional invasion of undesired creatures, and lending a hand to those welcome travelers who suffer accidents to find the realm too severe for their skills. Typically, he operates from behind the scenes by leaving food where it can be found by travelers who need it, or stampeding wild pigs to drive invaders away.
Arrison was born to a forest tribe on some unnamed prime world. In his youth, he demonstrated an uncanny ability to survive alone in the woods. As a result, he often set out to hunt alone for days at a time, always bringing back his catches to share with his people. While he was gone on one of those trips, orcs attacked his native vilage. Only a handful of his people survived, lead by the son of their tribal leader, who had died in the attack. That young man had always been jealous of Arrison's abilities, and when the solitary hunter returned he was wrongfuly accused of having betrayed the village to the orcs, and banished to live alone. Heartbroken, Arrison wandered far and wide, eventually stumbling upon a portal to Sigil. from there, he found his way to Fenimar, where he intends to remain for the rest of his days.

Services

For cutters with a hankering for some solitude, Fennimar is the perfect place. But for those with more normal attitudes toward civilization, it can be sheer hell.
