-The Island of Ageron is actually fairly new, created by earth mages via the recently rediscovered Mountain spell and spread out over time. It is located in the southern hemisphere almost 3 months travel by boat to the SSW of Lojem. The island itself has a population of over 200,000, but attempted to remain uncharted for as long as it could, due to the power and terror of stories told about adventurers on the outside islands. Having remained rather peaceful, the island(s) actually ceased to exist for about 30 years. Reasons for this are unknown, but it has returned, causing nothing more than a small tidal wave upon re arrival. Signs point to a massive psionic malfunction in the city of Uzumi playing with time magics. The island itself consists of several large landpoints and cities, which are described below. The island of Ageron is 270 miles long, by 140 miles wide.+[[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1swGm-n_Bb9e12Cof8BX5-meQkZubMyw5/view?usp=sharing|See Full Size Map]]

 +The Island of Ageron is actually fairly new, created by earth mages via the recently rediscovered Mountain spell and spread out over time. It is located in the southern hemisphere almost 3 months travel by boat to the SSW of Lojem. It is about a 5 month journey to the northeast, past Lojem, to reach the Rhine. It takes about 4 months to the northwest to reach Kratal.

Line 6: Line 8:
 **[[Vesuna]]** The capital city of Ageron. Its population is nearing 123,000 people, the majority of which are humans, lizards, and elves. The current reigning king's name is Nicol Bowarn, and has been reigning since his ascension to the throne at age 35. He is a proficient mage and alchemist and would rather spend his time tinkering away than deliberating politics. Rumor has it he has found the elixir for immortality, but this is not backed up by any basis. The rest of the city survives well on farming, minor mage work, and trade with Firehammer Hold for iron and other like goods. While this is the capital, unless necessary the majority of the power is delegated to the mayors of each other town, and they take a more passive stance on most political issues. It has been seen though, that if the system needs a fix, Nicol will not hesitate to help the people. **[[Vesuna]]** The capital city of Ageron.

-**[[Uzumi]], City of the Psions**: Population 2,300. This city is as it sounds, however, it is almost more fortified than the capital itself. Those in the city itself are extremely prejudiced towards non-psions, which is determined at the gates of the city. Completely reliant on food crops from Vesuna, this city's small population spends its time almost purely in research of psionics, psionic artifacts, medicine, and just being racist against orcs. To this day, not many people know why this is, and it has just been passed down from generation to generation. Orcs have been known to disappear at night.... while this hasnt happened to non-psions, they still extremely dislike them and consider them inferior mentally. This city has no temples, and chooses to rely on its own means and strength to heal anyone who is sick.((I'll take this city, unless someone else really wants it -Preston))+**[[Uzumi]], City of the Psions**: Population 2,300.

-**[[Markduk]], City of Pirates**: Population 5000, but rising. As a result of the formerly pirate crews banding together, the way this city behaves has changed immensely. The government is now a form of tribunal, where the four pirate captains meet and discuss issues. A mayor has been appointed as the head of this group, but if you ask most anyone around town they will tell you that the real one in power prefers to stay out sight. The city now hires out its crews and ships as mercenary protection for the various merchant ships that traverse the oceans of jaern, which is proving to be quite profitable. This isn't to say that the city has become a law abiding dream. There are still plenty of opportunities to find shady activities going on, and rumor has it that if someone needed something stolen, this would be the place to come.((Before running a game from here, it would be great if you added it to the calendar on the page, just to avoid any overlaps. -Bradley))+**[[Markduk]], City of Pirates**: Population 5000, but rising.

-**[[Firehammer Hold]]**: Population 13,750. This dungeon keep is stocked almost exclusively by dwarves. Comprised mostly of miners, blacksmiths, and artificers, this city gets the majority of its food from Vesuna's farmers in exchange for trading metal materials and gemstones. The city, while not the most open to visitors due to its remote location enterance, is very hospitable to those who choose to visit and assist them in their needs.((I have plans for this-Nathan R.))+**[[Firehammer Hold]]**: Population 13,750.

 **[[Northface]]** Population 32,000. A fairly large city located at the north end of Ageron. Located on and in a cliffside, it is continuously windy, which has led to windmills and primitive forms of electricity and lighting being used for power. This city is host to a large university. It is also currently being plagued by an incurable disease.  **[[Northface]]** Population 32,000. A fairly large city located at the north end of Ageron.

   * **[[Toth]], City of Necromancers**: Population 15,000. While by no means is everyone here a necromancer, this place has been the thorn in the side of the kingdom. Located on the island of Koth, the city is ruled by a handful of powerful families who are constantly scheming to attack and weaken each other, meaning that the city never focuses its attention on expanding outwards.   * **[[Toth]], City of Necromancers**: Population 15,000.

-**[[Gaea]] (Western Island)**: as of yet, this island is very unexplored. Rumors talk of a species stronger than those seen before. There where preiously only 2 towns, [[Mar]] and [[Weto]] (described below). Rather recently, with help of adventuers and mages, a the city of Unity was literally teleported to the north end of the island, and a small city of animals called Cradle was discovered to the west.((running games here for now - Dan))+  * **[[Fulgoro]], Town of Fireflies**: Population 4,500. Located in the swamps at the south end of Toth, this town is built on a system of stilts keeping the buildings safe above the water. The economy subsists mostly on fishing and trading. Due to the high population of monsters on Koth, the city's citizens rely on adventurers, mercenaries, and monster hunters to defend the town from those who would attack it, and all three groups are generally welcomed within the town out of respect for their services.

   * **[[Mar]]** is fairly straightforward. They are still setting up and exploring Gaea, but have a nice city with a port going. City was previously named Darnation, but was renamed Mar after a coup that installed new leadership.   * **[[Mar]]** is fairly straightforward.

-**[[Gypshion]]**: Population: 1390. Settled on the massive levitating chunks of earth north of Vesuna, this city is as mysterious as the levitating rocks themselves. Little is known about this small city given its location and secluded populace. Inhabited mostly by nomads, this city is a place of boisterous festivities and lively carnivals. Once every decade the city hosts a grand event filled with mysterious magic and wonders; it is only held when the sun has set and is so named, The Night Circus. Little is known about this event since talking about it in anything other than vague details is impossible once the circus has concluded.+**[[Gryf'shion]]**: Population: 1390.
