The [[Fishwives]] | The [[Skaugan Main]] at the time of the [[Fishwives]] was a diverse and fractious environment with a great deal of political turmoil. While many of its continents, namely [[Orlan]] and [[Kothas]], had been long inhabited by their native populations, some continents had been colonized by foreign powers, introducing new and shifting alliances to the region. This gazetteer contains an incomplete list of important locations in the Skaugan Main during the period depicted in <i>[[The Tales of Ka-Ess]]</i>. | ||

==[[Argonas]]== | |||
The well-attested region of Argonas was home to the kingdoms of [[Carmos]] and [[Egron]], as well as the [[Duchy of Alon]]. | |||
==[[Hinazka]]== | |||
The wild continent of Hinazka was largely uninhabited, with the notable exception of the island city-state [[Port Skaug]] at its southern tip. At some point prior to [[218 V.II]], [[Hag Island]] reappeared in the island chain between Hinazka and eastern Kwetzpali. | |||
==[[Imerwel]]== | |||
The continent of Imerwel was the [[Empire of Doloriane]]'s main colony in the Skaugan Main. | |||
==[[Koroç]]== | |||
The vast and wild steppe of Koroç was inhabited by fierce nomads, noble [[centaurs]], and the savage[[werewolf tribes]]. | |||
==[[Kothas]]== | |||
Kothas was the ancestral home of the [[minotaurs]] and the seat of [[The August Hierarchy]]. | |||
==[[Kwetzpali]]== | |||
Kwetzpali was a heavily forested, tropical continent in the Skaugan Main, notable for its wild denizens [[The Thousand Tribes]] and the [[Lizardfolk]]. [[Port Nyanzaru]] was one of the few ports on the continent open for foreign trade. The continent was also home to the [[Evil Snake Cult]]. | |||
==[[Mictlan]]== | |||
Mictlan, the Isle of the Damned, was home to the slaver capital [[Port Drak]]. | |||
==[[Orlan]]== | |||
The fertile continent of Orlan was home to a loosely confederated group of [[Halfling]] agricultural settlements until its invasion by [[The August Hierarchy]] in [[218 V.II]], an event which triggered the [[halfling refugee crisis]]. | |||
==[[The Underdark]]== | |||
Many peoples and creatures lived in the caves and tunnels beneath the earth, which were said to go even below the ocean. Prominent locales include the [[drow]] city of [[Ched Nasad]] and the legendary library at [[Gravenhollow]]. | |||
==[[Other Worlds]]== | |||
There are other planes of existence. Some, like [[the Feywild]] and [[the Shadowfell]], are relatively close to the Prime Material Plane and mirror it in many ways. Others, like [[the hells]] or [[the Outer Dark]], are strange, terrible, and thankfully far away. | |||
