Apâl

"Apål it's self is a place of mystery, little is known. What we do know, is that Apål is split into three parts. First there is the Apål Badlands, a frozen plain where the kings and queens of old built their empire. Only ruins remain. Then their is the core of Apål, separated from the badlands by the Mountain of Souls. In Apål there is rumored to be tribes of Half Elves keeping the religion of old alive. Also in the core of Apål is Tylick, a giant bridge. The bridge was once built to be the link to connect two worlds, Human and Elven. All further records of Tylick have been lost. All we know is that their is a giant gap in the bridge, spanning near a mile. The third and final part is the Apålian Glacier. Not much is known about it, other then rumors of a fortress of ice,"

Geography: Apål's three parts are all in the North, causing them to be harsh cold climates. The Badlands are frozen plains with rushing rivers. The core of Apål is a mountainous region with thin forests consisting mostly of towering pines. The Glacier is just that, a towering mountain of pure ice and snow.

People: The people of Apål are all Half-Elves. They have been the guardians of the Northern religion since it was established. Even though most of the North no longer believe in this religion anymore, they still practice and guard its secrets. The people of Apål are fairly in-advanced, and refuse to succumb to new technology. The people live in tribes consisting of no more than thirty. All of those that live are raised in Apål are taught to use and withstand magic from birth. Though many don't believe in their existence those that do, hold an enormous amount of respect for these Half-Elves. Some consider them to be the best magic users in the world.

Government: The tribes all have one tribe leader who makes all the decisions for the tribe. In a time of need, all the tribes come to council in the castle of old. Most tribes also have a shaman who is also considered very high up in the tribe.

Foreign Policy + Magic and Demons: Apål has no official relations with our nations and regions. Though a select few people in the world do communicate with the tribes, through their Shamans. Magic is widely used by every tribe and almost every thing capable in Apål. It is the social norm. Any demon that dare set foot in Apål, is quickly hunted down and exterminated. The people of Apål believe that to be one of their main purposes in life. To guard not only the North, but in extreme need they will come to the need of Tetravier. In fact to become a Shaman, one must first find and kill a demon by them selves.
