Thedas

Thedas is the continent in the Southern hemisphere, and the only known continent to its denizens. It is presumed that there are other continents, as the Goliaths do not originally come from Thedas but from an unknown land across the Northern Ocean. A native of Thedas is referred to as a Theodosian. South of the continent's Korcari Wilds lie the mysterious Sunless Lands, which seem to be native to the dangerous Jrid.
