Everfree Wilds

Swamp south of Feralden

The Korcari Wilds are a cold southern expanse of forest and swamp, the extent of which is not truly known. Its native to monsters such as giant swamp crabs, and Chasind Wilder who tell of a wasteland of snow and ice further to the south, filled only with desolate tundra and nomadic barbarians. Most northerners believe little of what the Chasind have to say.

The Wilds are also home to Flemeth, the legendary "Witch of the Wilds", and her daughters.

South of the Wilds itself lies the mysterious region known as the Sunless Lands.

• The Chasind are a barbarian folk that live to the south of Feralden in the Korcari Wilds. While they did unite on several occasions with the Avvar and the Alamareri to fight against the Tevinter Imperium, Feraldans have stronger memories of the many times the Chasind surged north into their land. It is said that ages ago the Chasind conquered the Alamareri, the ancestors of the modern-day Feraldans, until the latter rose up in rebellion. Later, the legendary witch Flemeth led an army of Chasind into Feralden to take vengeance on the bann who had been her husband. While Flemeth is said to have been killed at that time, many claim that she and her daughters (the Witches of the Wilds) lived amongst the Chasind well into the Dragon Age.
• Today, the Chasind are a more peaceful folk, but there are many superstitions regarding them. They live in houses build on stilts and do some trading with Feraldans living in the south. Some Feraldans still consider the Chasind a threat and fear the day a charismatic figure will unite them once again.
• The Ursa Major is a grown up version of the already massive Ursa Minor. If you ever meet one, you should be very careful not to make it angry, especially by endangering its family. Many stories tell that the Ursa Major has the strength to destroy entire towns if it wants to, but is luckily content to live out its days in the darkest depths of the Crawshayi Wilds.
