Kathiir

Kathiir : Tomb of The Deep

A far away realm located in the southern part of Mythic Sea. Kathiir was created for one reason and for one reason only, to house The Deep. An incredibly large, endless sinkhole located in a barren valley. Home to demons, devils and fallen angels, and where the evil chromatic dragon lords were imprisoned with their ruler Darknor, the demi-god of Chromatic dragons.
Kathiir is a wasteland with practically no natural resources, as it wasn't intended to inhabit life. Throughout the years it has become a place where many strange and dark gnome inventors along with evil wizard cultist toss away their failed creations and experiments. Making Kathiir the home to some bizarre and terrifying creatures, some creatures though are native to Kathiir having been created by the strange and evil presence of The Deep itself. These terrifying creatures are more common the closer you get to The Deep.

Climate

Despite it's desert like appearance and the full sun Kathiir gets it is surprisingly more often than not cold. Nights are especially the hardest as it often gets cold enough to leave a layer of frost by the morning. Staying warm is important but fires almost always draw unwanted attention, making warmth sometimes difficult to achieve.

History

Years ago a large crew of adventures were traveling to the Kalhlhanis Isle, the home of elementals. When they had some unexpected bad weather and got lost at sea for 2 months before landing upon Kathiir. Many died the first night from monster attacks, the rest were able to band together and survive but at what. Over time they went mad and created a cult making up there own gods and rituals, they attack anybody they come across and use them for sacrifices or worse...
