Hexes are 20 miles in diameter. Total area depicted equals 366,450 sq.m.

Features

Islands of Buyan

Mythical lands have never been viewed by Europeans; even the inhabitants of the mainland are hardly aware of their existence. According to legend, the Buyan Islands are able to appear and disappear. Three brothers, demi-gods of the northern, western and eastern winds, dwell here. The three largest islands, Bolshe, Nauk and Oktyab, are named for them. The Zoryas, solar demi-goddesses who are the daughters of the solar god Dazhbog, also dwell here.

Pronchis Mountains

An eastern extension of the Byranga Plateau, a mountain knot comprising foothills above a thousand feet and peaks ranging up to 3,000 ft.

Yukaghir Sea

An arm of the Arctic Ocean extending eastward from the Islands of Buyan

Provinces

Samoyadia

The Kingdom of Samoyadia is a gnoll realm and homeland of the gnoll people, in the furthest north of Siberia. Temperature ranges from very cold in the winter to chilly in July. The population is largely gnoll in race, but some norker clans can be found along the border with Sakha. Fauna includes reindeer, wolves, polar bears, ermine and migratory birds; transhumance is practiced among copious reindeer herds that move to foothills of the Pronchis Mountains in summer and southwestward in the winter. The immense kingdom has an area of 730.7 hexes and a population of 15,625.
