The Barren

A land of rock and ice

This article is a stub. Please comment if you would like it to become a priority for expansion.

The Barren is a continent to the extreme south of Etrea. It is a place of mostly bare rock and ice, and in the winter months is devoid of sunlight for twenty-three hours a day. Merfolk have settled around its coastline, but they are the only sapient species to have a permanent home there.
There are research stations clustered along the coasts, where people from other places come to observe the continent's unique and elusive wildlife. Though most life there exists in the ocean, there are some species that have adapted to the harsh climate.
