Od is pronounced (oo-d) or (ah-d) depending on where you’re from. The farther south, the more (oo-d), the more north you go the more it starts sounding like (ah-d), somewhere in the middle it’s more like (ud).
Dragons do not exist. There are many stories and legends of dragons, but an actual dragon has not been sighted. At least not in a very very long time.
Elves are very rare. There are many legends about why, the most popular being that many many years ago the elves just up and left to head East somewhere. No one knows why they left, where they went, or when they're coming back. Or if they even want to because lets be honest this place is kind of a dump.
Od is split into a handful of areas.
Atheria - the main land and focus of campaigns. It is home to the Dragon Forged Alliance.
Guide to Atheria!Arithia - A land north of Atheria separated by the Black Rock Desert, occupied by the Arithian Empire. It is ruled by the Holy Emperor, and is known to be very religious, worshiping Veros, the God of Divine Law and Order. It is not at war with the Alliance, but also not on the best of terms. Most conflicts between the nation are prevented due to the Black Rock Desert that separates them.
The Crimson Sea - A land of pirates and scallywags northwest of Atheria.
The Shattered Isles - A collection of islands west of Atheria. This area is considered un-chartable, as islands are said to move and change as easily as the wind.
