Droaam
Droaam is a nation of monsters ruled by three hags that call themselves the Daughters of Sora Kell. No one knows where these creatures came from, but in 981 YK they appeared with a sizable army of trolls and ogres. Each of these three hags is a legend in her own right; the subjects of tales used to frighten children. Eleven years ago, they seized the lands west of the Graywall Mountains of Breland and founded the nation of Droaam.
Although Breland laid claim to these barren lands, Galifar had never tamed this wild region. Gnolls, orcs, and goblins commonly sought haven here, as well as ogres, trolls, harpies, minotaurs, medusas, tieflings, changelings, lycanthropes, and other races unwelcome in civilized lands. In the past, these creatures fought one another more often than they raided human settlements. Under the leadership of the Daughters of Sora Kell, they have new purpose. The Daughters use their army of ogres and war trolls to maintain order.
To date, the other nations of Khorvaire have refused to recognize Droaam, and the region was not acknowledged in the Treaty of Thronehold. Most people believe that the monstrous nation can't last - that even the Daughters can't hold the disparate alliance together, but Droaam is currently thriving and stronger than ever. Droaam works closely with House Tharashk and, to some extent, House Deneith, selling the services of monstrous soldiers and laborers and byeshk ore, a form of metal with magical properties. Beyond that, it's a still-expanding frontier nation. The cities of Graywall and Great Crag grow larger and more organized every day, and the rest of Khorvaire is uneasy with the potential power of a fully realized Droaam.
The monsters that inhabit Droaam retain their racial subcultures. Most worship the Dark Six, but other religious traditions flourish as well.
