Salamarsh - A Diverse Wilderness
The Salamarsh, nestled in the western region of the North West continent, is a heavily wooded marsh of exceptional biodiversity. Within its murky waters, a thriving reptile population finds refuge on large slate rocks that rise above the surface. These reptiles bask in the sun, coexisting with various species of amphibians, fish, insects, and plants. Among the notable inhabitants of the Salamarsh is the ancient Black Century Salamander, known for its impressive longevity, capable of living up to a thousand years and reaching lengths of up to 10 feet.   The outer fringes of the marsh are dominated by stands of silver and white birch trees. As you venture deeper into the marsh's interior, willow trees, dogwood, swamp rose, and buttonbush dominate the landscape. The marsh's dark waters provide excellent cover for ambush predators like crocodiles, anacondas, and alligator gars.   The Mirekin Tribe - Lizardfolk of the Swamps
The Mirekin tribe calls the wetlands of the Salamarsh their home. Comprising Crocodile and Salamander-like lizardfolk, they reside in small tribal villages in the swamp's southeastern regions. Their homes are often hidden amidst the trees and shrubs at the outskirts of clearings, surrounded by rocks perfect for sunbathing. The entrances to their huts and dwellings are typically submerged beneath the murky green waters, providing a natural defense against those unfamiliar with the art of swimming and navigating the swamp's terrain. These underwater entrances also serve as quick escape routes, allowing them to dive into the waters to secure their prey, resembling the ice fishing holes used in the frozen climates of the far north.
