Calia

Two lines seems not enough for the great domain. So here it goes.

A truly unique land of original feel where the history and the present captivate
your imagination. Moors, seas, vast forests, cities and villages of distinct
feel ready to be explored by beginner players.
Noteworthy the city of Gelan, the home of two beginner guilds: the Cadets
for warriors apprentices and the Academy for magic users.

Plenty of charming nooks around but with some scrunity even more interesting
places can be found, so get ready for caves infested with undeads, sunken cities,
dark temples hidden within woods, armies preparing for invasion, islands
holding many stories and riddles. And more.

Brave women folk may look for the Amazons Camp in Silent Forest and experienced
fighters visit mount Kyrus where dwell the protectors of Calia - Calian Warriors.
Not so easy to find are the Elemental Worshippers and the Spirit Circle of Psuchae
but one who seeks and sets on a journey will find it worthy.

Ride a chariot, create experimental potions, kiss a frog, explore a sunken ship...
Go there and do it now!

The relentless Dark Sun beats down on you as you explore this inhospitable land. In the east stands the great city state of Tyr where Gladiators fight to the death in a blood stained arena, Templar's ruthlessly enforce the law and unruly mobs seethe with rebellion. All the while the mad sorcerer-king Kalak plots his ascension to godhood. To the south rumors tell of bandit encampments hidden amongst the endless sand dunes, whilst westward a caravan route snakes it's way into the Kalad wastes.

Syrk: Thanks! But I think I want to keep it short. The idea is to have a few lines that just set the "mood" of the domain. Then I simply write some general info, which guilds are there etc. Just plain info without any fuzz.

What I need help with is the short "mood-setting-text". I suppose I should have explained that better perhaps. Sorry. I'll happily use the beginning and end of your text though, I think those parts set the mood very well. Or if you wanna shorten it a bit yourself thats fine too!

That sounds excellent to me!

Calia is a tough one since there is so much there. I had similar issues with sparkle keeping it short hence why outside sparkle got its own blurb. and yes the Tyr one is awsome. Terel is also going to be tough to keep short...

Faerun: Orcs, shades and Vampires. Also I hear there's quests too.
