The Eastland: Land of

Dwarves and Gnomes

The Dwarves have always had to fight a constant battle against the Gnomes to protect their homeland, but that battle has given them the strength of will that has ensured their survival. —Prince Balinor Buckhannah

he Eastland, more than any other of the Four Lands, is a region of divisions and complexity. Home to three Races as well as numerous creatures born of old magic, the land east of the Rabb is in constant conflict. Dwarves dominate the southern section, Trolls and Gnomes dominate the north, and the central section is constantly disputed. The actual populations and lines of territorial demarcation change with the winds of fortune and time, while the creatures of magic and Faerie, who have lived here longer than any, ignore the struggles of their mortal neighbors.

The Eastland is defined by its great forest, the Anar. Divided into the Lower Anar, the Central Anar, and the Upper Anar, the sections of forest, and their connecting mountains and plains, are each distinct regions. The Lower Anar, a dense old-growth forest bordered by the Battlemound Lowlands on the west and the foothills of the Ravenshorn on the east, is the heartland of the Dwarves. The Central Anar, between the Wolfsktaag Mountains and the Ravenshorn Mountains, is home to both Gnomes and Dwarves. West of the Wolfsktaag, in the forest at the edge of the Rabb Plains, lies Storlock, home to the special breed of Gnome Healers called Stors. Gnomes, Mountain Gnomes, and the lizard-like Trolls known as Mwellrets populate the Upper Anar, as well as the northern part of the Ravenshorn.
