Redmoor: Regions of Ruthar

Kaz'Ruthar, known as Ruthar, is a continent of varied landscapes, where the Crimson Shroud casts its eerie glow over scarred lands, ancient forests, and forgotten ruins. Below are the regions that define this shattered realm, laid out as they appear on the map.

Torin’s Breach (Northwest)

Scarred badlands where jagged earth meets relentless heat, a dry expanse whispering of ancient battles.

Whispering Thicket (North)

Tangled woodland where shadows cling to every branch, hiding secrets in its dense, suffocating embrace.

Torvul Knobs (Thorvul Drukhaz) (Northeast)

This land is dominated by older misty, forested slopes. Nestled between tangled forests and quiet woodlands. Smoldering hills hide ancient forges and whispering hollows.

Veyra’s Crest (West)

Icy mountains where frost bites deeper than steel, a cold, unyielding barrier against the western winds.

Norwood (Central-North)

Dense, quiet woodlands where the air feels heavy with untold stories, a sanctuary of silence.

Kaelthyr Vale (Central-East)

A misty valley cradling ancient ruins, their stones etched with runes that hum with forgotten magic.

Central Plains of Kaz'Ruthar (Central-West)

Vast open plains where the wind carries echoes of freedom, stretching endlessly under a crimson sky.

Reddleshire (Center)

Idyllic rolling hills like the Shire, green with a reddish hue from the Shroud, centered on a dark stone plateau.

The Godsteeth

Jagged, tropical peaks encircling a verdant vale, their basalt spires cloaked in ferns and mist, evoking a diving maw.

Emberfall Steppes (Southwest)

Mild steppes with open, livable terrain, where the earth feels warm beneath a shroud-tinged sky.

Ochre Fens - Rattlin' Bogs - Sundergloom Swamps (South)

The Ochre Fens, Rattlin’ Bog, and Sundergloom Swamps sprawl as a vast wetland, woven with mist and pulsing with an ancient, uncanny vitality. Amber waters and swaying reeds shimmer in the Fens, while the Bog quivers with peat and skeletal echoes beneath mossy veils. Sundergloom’s dark mangroves and black, serpent-filled waters brood under a perpetual twilight, heavy with whispers of forgotten rites

Skyveil Canopy (Southeast)

Towering forest like the Pacific Northwest, with clear skies untouched by the Crimson Shroud’s reach.
