Tarmynia<\/strong> is a vast and diverse continent marked by ancient powers, political tension, and a deep history of both cooperation and betrayal. Once shared by the original races in relative peace, the land has become fractured\u2014divided among human kingdoms, non-human nations, and long-forgotten forces that continue to shape its fate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Geldanos<\/strong> (Lawful Neutral) Sariyaz<\/strong> (Neutral Good) Corinthia<\/strong> (Lawful Good) Tharmatur<\/strong> (Chaotic Good) Shanda-Wold<\/strong> (Neutral) Ansell-Vend (Elven Queendom)<\/strong> (Neutral Evil) Darven-Imus (Dwarven Kingdom)<\/strong> (Lawful Neutral) Grun\u2019Dor (Goblin-Orc Confederation)<\/strong> (Neutral Good) Shalne-Tadd (The Death Lands)<\/strong> (Chaotic Evil) The Shanda-Woldn were the original humans of Tarmynia, living in harmony with elves, dwarves, goblins, orcs, and other races. They worshipped the Void God, a divine force of balance, and wielded powerful shadow magic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ten thousand years ago, the Death God rose and sought to consume the world. The Shanda-Woldn, aided by the Void God, sealed it away\u2014at the cost of the Void God’s life and the decimation of their own people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Five hundred years later, refugees from a distant land arrived, founding the Old Kingdoms. These newcomers eventually enslaved the remaining Shanda-Woldn, using them as assassins and tools of war. After generations, the Shanda-Woldn fled across the sea and established the hidden island of Shanda-Wold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Magic in Tarmynia varies by region and culture:<\/p>\n\n\n\n The continent stands on the brink of great upheaval.
