Kalevala

To the north-west of Dominus is the most southerly point of the sub-arctic region known as “Kalevala”.

The name comes from a set of epic poems about the hero “Vainamoinen” and translates into “this land”. The humans of Kalevala are a tall, muscular and (generally) blonde people, called the “Ymirkin”.

Geography

Kalevala is a semi-mountainous region with vast forests of coniferous trees. Due to its proximity to the northern pole of Oberon it has short days in winter and very long days in summer.

The other indigenous people of Kalevala are the Giants. Frost Giants, Hill giants and Fomorians all make their home in this land.

Economy

Ymirkin are naturally resourceful people and have built trade-links with both Gryphos and Mortrach. Imodii warriors sometimes even travel as far south as Dominus to find fame and fortune.

Flora and Fauna

Other than Ymirkin, Frost Giants, Hill giants and Fomorians all make their home in this land. In the coldest regions of the land reside purple worms and, rumour has it, white coloured Dragons.
