Juloore

Description

Damp in its northern regions and infested with worms in the area of The Droimunes. Its underground capital, Sigreme, is a vast rambling, labyrinth of a place excavated from the remains of old discarded worm mines. To the east lays The Forest of The Fair, a mysterious place occupied by mystics and containing many secret glades forbidden to outsiders on pain of death. Grass plains roll south to the lush Hopper Fields, where huge Great Green Grasshoppers are bred and raised by their Juloorian keepers.

Juloore gets on well with its neighbors, which is just as well because its warriors are constantly battling to prevent bands of outlaws raiding crossing their borders from The Wastes of Brek-Morne.
