Siv'Solvanus

Siv'Solvanus is the setting for the Cradle of Mist Campaign. The majority of the campaign takes place in the central region known as Deadwater Bastion.

The world itself is split into four continents. Greater Siv, Lesser Siv, Halfland, and the Farshores.

Ironically, Greater Siv the the smaller of the two Siv continents, but the reason is simply that Greater Siv is held in higher regards due to its prominent mountain range called "God's Land", and the fact that it the northern-most continent making it "higher" on the map.

Halfland is named thusly due to the fact that only half of it is inhabited, where the other half is a dangerous frontierland, and The Farshores are all but undiscovered and have no civilized communities.

Much of the world is dangerous frontierland, only the shores known to the people, and the largest frontier, is known as The Vast, the large ocean that makes up the majority of the surface of the planet.

Other major bodies of water include the Lake known as Deadwater Bastion, and the Bay of Black Sands, a large ocean-sized bay known to harbor a pirate empire. Then of course there is the Long Sea, the ocean found on the far eastern edge of Lesser Siv.

The world is mostly temperate and tropical, due to its major weight in the southern hemisphere, but God's Land and Greater Siv as a whole, is a frost-covered land of rock and stone. Though rumors exist that say the summit of God's Land is a veritable paradise.

North of Lesser Siv and East of Greater Siv are a series of peninsula's known as The Lyrical Stones, as it has a strange, ghostly music that can be heard for leagues and leagues beyond its un-explored frontier borders. Only the shore has been explored, as no man has the courage to explore it further, while it is well large enough to be a continent of it's own, it is often considered to be the northern half of Lesser Siv.

West of Greater Siv are a vast group of thousands of islands known as the Far Islands, a prosperous and wealthy land known for it's trade and it's explorers.

Frontierlands
The frontierlands are the most dangerous and unknown lands in Siv'Solvanus, homes to the dragons, the legendary sun beasts, and some say, the gods. These lands are lands that most mortals fear, and those who do not fear, often find exploring their depths fatal, and are erased from history or written off as foolish skeptics

There are a total of Seven major frontierlands the Lyrical Stones, Hellstone, Shadowsand Mountans, the Farlands, God's Land, Sea Serpent Island, and the high, but majestic mountains of Skold. While there are many more smaller frontiers, these are the ones that are most feared.
