=Fan-Made Domains= ==Aljaugasba== ::Cultural Level: Renaissance ::Landscape: Arabian Coast ::Motif: Decadent Arabian City ::[[Darklord]]: Abdul the Damned Taking the form of a small coastal region conjoined to the southernmost tip of Pharazia, Aljaugasba is a trading hub linked by reliable mistways to the Poison Sea of Rokushima Taiyoo, the eastern rivers of Sri Raji, the river west of the Theospine Mountains in Nidala, the Eel's Flow river of G'henna, and the Sea of Sorrows. But the true wealth and monetary power of Aljaugasba is the Flesh District; a bawdy quarter devoted to gambling houses, brothels, opium dens, fighting pits, slave auction halls, and every other purveyor of vice and debauchery one could imagine, all of which will take a man's freedom if they can't pay with coin. Thus the domain's popular name; "The City of Temptation". This domain appears in [[Quoth the Raven]] #5. ==Arlington Farm== ::Cultural Level: Renaissance decayed to Dark Ages ::Landscape: Single large wheat & corn farm ::Motif: Killer Scarecrows ::[[Darklord]]: Henry Arlington The cursed farm of a farmer so obsessed with the success of his land that he not only killed to acquire it, but he began performing blood rites to ensure its success, murdering people and hiding their bodies in his scarecrows. Eventually, his cursed creations turned on him and turned him into one of them. This fanon domain debuted in the 2001 issue of the [[Undead Sea Scrolls]], and was subsequently revisited in [[Quoth the Raven]] #11. ==Callista== ::Cultural Level: Renaissance ::Landscape: Flooded Islets ::Motif: Gothic Vienna ::[[Darklord]]: Rafe Ungard A once large island that has been reduced to tiny islets by intense flooding, peopled with a passionately chivalric (in the sense of "women are sacred and must be protected") people who claim to be the ''true'' [[Vistani]], ignorant of the fact that they are actually the cursed reincarnations of the true Vistani seen elsewhere in the Misty Realms. Because only 20% of their children are girls, they are overwhelmingly, patronizingly chivalric, and will sooner die than hurt women. The realm is also home to a large population of [[Paka]], who believe it to be a defiled holy site and hate the Callistans passionately. This fanon domain can be found in the [[Undead Sea Scrolls]] 2002. ==Carcharodon Isle== ::Cultural Level: Chivalric ::Landscape: Temperate Hills ::Motif: <s>Ladyhawke</s> Parted Lovers ::[[Darklord]]: Alison Marjory and Sean Mako An island cursed with two darklords; a fisherman turned [[wereshark]] and a [[merfolk|mermaid]]-turned-human turned [[seawolf]], whose curses prevent them from ever meeting in their human forms. Fanon domain from the Book of Souls. ==Mictlan== ::Cultural Level: Classical ::Landscape: Tropical Jungle ::[[Darklord]]: Commander Hernando Mouriros A pastiche of the [[Aztec]] empire, the invasion of an army from a mysterious Chivalric realm has destabilize the realm and caused it to begin falling apart into civil war. And all the while, the invaders, cursed to never die unless they can conquer all of Mictlan, press on desperately in an attempt to end their long and bloody campaign. ==Igid Rabi-i== ::Cultural Level: Chivalric, Classical or Dark Ages, depending on region ::[[Darklord]]: Arcapatos Miguel Agustin A deeply spiritual domain wracked with internal conflict, for its leader is a priest who cares nothing for the realm, forever chasing a "holy relic" that evades his every attempt to grasp it. ==The Eternal Torture== ::Cultural Level: Renaissance ::Landscape: Decaying Sailing Ship ::Motif: [[Ghoul]] Ship ::[[Darklord]]: Miles Havelocke The cursed ship of Miles Havelocke, a mutineer who led his crew to commit cannibalism upon the loyal members of the crew. Now a crew of [[ghast]]s, they endlessly search for land, attacking and feeding upon any unlucky ships they encounter as their passage leads them to the Nocturnal Sea, the Sea of Sorrows, and the oceans off all other domains, but never to the land they desperately wish to reach. This fanon domain debuted in the 2001 issue of the [[Undead Sea Scrolls]]. ==Fairhafen== ::Cultural Level: Medieval ::Landscape: Temperate Mountains, Forests and Plains ::Motif: Dark Fairy Tale ::[[Darklord]]: Queen Avarein A rural realm of peasant villages ruled over by a beautiful but evil queen who wields dark powers... basically, it's [[grimdark]] Snow White country, with a plethora of other fairytales thrown in for spice. This domain appears in [[QUoth the Raven]] #15. ==Immerabt== ::Cultural Level: Late Renaissance ::Landscape: Temperate & Cold Plains, Mountains and Aquatic ::Motif: When Death Becomes Relief ::[[Darklord]]: Dr. Dorothy Hemphyll An incredibly advanced domain whose scientific prowess can challenge that of Lamordia's, especially in medical sciences. It bulges with life to the point of being overrun with it, and yet death is a mercy that all too few can find, especially under the watchful eye of the Healer's Guild. This fanon domain can be found in the [[Undead Sea Scrolls]] 2002. ==Incitatus== ::Cultural Level: Classical reduced to Stone Age ::Landscape: Desolate, Lifeless City and rural surroundings ::Motif: Scientific Hubris Brings Apocalypse ::[[Darklord]]: Ahasveros The lifeless remains of what was once a great scientific civilization, one that destroyed itself attempting to harness the power of the sea to annihilate an enemy nation with an artificially created tidal wave. Now, all that remains is the reclusive ghostly remains of the scientist who created that tidal wave, and destroyed his own people with it. This fanon domain can be found in the [[Undead Sea Scrolls]] 2002. ==Karss== ::Cultural Level: Chivalric ::Landscape: Massive Prison in the middle of nowhere ::Motif: ::[[Darklord]]: Warden Jonar Tamh Formerly the Great Prison of the [[Harmonium]], an experiment in reformation-focused incarceration launched by the Hardheads on the faction's homeworld of Ortho, the warden's descent into cruelty and draconian punishments in defiance of the experiment's focus led to its being ripped from Ortho and stranded in the Mists. This fanon domain debuted in the 2001 issue of the [[Undead Sea Scrolls]]. ==Kislova== ::Cultural Level: Medieval ::Landscape: Mountainous Grasslands ::Motif: Futility of Power Behind the Throne ::[[Darklord]]: Baroness Ilsabet Obour A domain adapted from the Ravenloft novel "Baroness of Blood", ruled over by a malevolent [[alchemist]] turned pain-eating monster. Fanon domain from the Book of Souls. ==The Lost Wizard's Tower== ::Cultural Level: Savage, vestiges of Renaissance ::Landscape: Temperate Forest & Hills ::Motif: Obsessive Love ::[[Darklord]]: [[Jinx]] Once, there was a cat; a [[familiar]] to a powerful [[alchemist]] and [[transmuter]] named Margaret Landsdale. Then she grew overbold with her experiments and tested a formula on her familiar in order to enhance his intelligence. It worked all too well; now, Jinx could think as well as any human... and get jealous. That jealousy led to her death, and now it leads to the death of any arcane spellcaster whom Jinx tries to take as her replacement. This fanon domain can be found in the [[Undead Sea Scrolls]] 2002. ==Locknar Cove== ::Cultural Level: Renaissance ::Landscape: Cold, eroded hills and thick, old growth forest ::Motif: ::[[Darklord]]: A quiet, humble island of fisherfolk that lies off the combined shorelines of Darkon and Nova Vassa, close to the isle of Liffe. Hidden at its core like a toad in a stone, the ghost of an avaricious pirate who valued wealth beyond his own life guards a vast treasure hoard. Fanon domain from the Book of Sacrifices. ==Miseria== ::Cultural Level: Chivalric ::Landscape: Temperate hills, forests, caves ::Motif: Ghostly Hauntings ::[[Darklord]]: Cassandre Desesprits A rugged and inhospitable land whose people struggle to survive and put food on the tables, all whilst dealing with the vast legions of ghosts that haunt the realm. And nobody suspects that a humble barmaid with a heart full of spite and selfishness is the ultimate cause for their damnation. This fanon domain debuted in the 2001 issue of the [[Undead Sea Scrolls]]. ==Nedragonne== ::Cultural Level: Medieval ::Landscape: Diverse ::Motif: Us vs. Them ::[[Darklord]]: Xanthos Kastigir Lying in the frigid waters of the northern Nocturnal Sea, Nedragonne is a little slice of [[Krynn]] in the Misty Realms. Inhabited by a mixture of [[human]]s, [[Tinker Gnome]]s, [[dwarves]] and [[kender]], Nedragonne is a rough, rugged landscape whose people have learned to pull together, and thus accept each other with open arms... but aren't so welcoming to outsiders.

This fanon domain debuted in the [[Undead Sea Scrolls]] 2002, and was revisited in its 2003 issue. ==Nzari== ::Cultural Level: Stone Age, Renaissance in Mr. Klein's camp ::Landscape: Tropical Rainforest ::Motif: Darkest Africa ::[[Darklord]]: Gatwe and Mr. Klein. A domain inspired by the Darkest Africa tropes in general and the novel Heart of Darkness in particular.

This fanon domain can be found in the [[Undead Sea Scrolls]] 2003. ==Okraina== ::Cultural Level: Chivalric ::Landscape: Temperate Forests & Hills ::Motif: Dark Fairy Tale ::[[Darklord]]: Anna Sparatoga A fanon domain found in [[Quoth the Raven]] #2. With a distinctly Russian feel, Okraina is a cold-leaning temperate realm of densely forested hills centered around a single mighty river. Here, an oppressed but courageous peasantry suffers under the reigns of a brutal hereditary aristocracy led by Prince Vasili the Cruel, whilst clans of elves live reclusive lives in the depths of the [[fey]]-haunted forests, leading to a surprisingly large population of [[half-elf|half-elves]], viewed as blessed with supernatural luck by their human counterparts. ==Olympus== ::Cultural Level: Classical ::Landscape: Temeprate Forest & Hills, Cold Mountains, Warm Aquatic ::Motif: Greek Mythology ::[[Darklord]]: Hercules A pastiche of mythological Greece, ruled over by a pantheon of Living Gods - fallen heroes who have taken the identities of the Greek Deities as their own. And the once shining hope against those cruel, petty deities is in fact the worst of them all. This fanon domain can be found in the [[Undead Sea Scrolls]] 2002. ==The Raging Tears== ::Cultural Level: Medieval ::Landscape: Single Rotting Ship ::Motif: Ghost Ship ::[[Darklord]]: Urdogen "The Red" The cursed vessel of a long-forgotten pirate from [[Forgotten Realms]], whose restless soul is condemned to wander the seas forever and never attain the power he once knew as the feared pirate king of the Inner Sea of Faerun. Whilst the ghost ship can be found in any sea in the Demiplane, or even sometimes beyond, its physical remains lie in the Sea of Sorrows, and must be found if one would put Urdogen to his long-cheated fate. Fanon domain from the Book of Sorrows. ==Romagna== ::Cultural Level: Chivalric ::Landscape: Mild Plains and Forests ::Motif: Eternal Love ::[[Darklord]]: Serenissa D'Aubliet A peaceful and gentle agricultural domain that seems free of the darkness of other, grimmer realms. But its shadows still linger, in the form of a spectral darklord who, whilst powerless to affect the natives, has no such restrictions against preying on visitors. Fanon domain from the Book of Sorrows. ==Saarkaath== ::Cultural Level: Medieval ::Landscape: Temperate Mountains, Forest ::Motif: Blood Purity ::[[Darklord]]: Hakaan na Uruk A realm of [[half-orc]]s turned inwards into a brutal and pointless butchery, where the inhabitants try to claim "purity" of either [[human]] or [[orc]]ish heritage despite all being mixed race. Fanon domain from the Book of Sacrifices. ==San Bartolome== ::Cultural Level: Middle Ages ::Landscape: Warm, Rugged, Mountainous ::Motif: ::[[Darklord]]: Isabel de Sargas A theocratic tropical paradise that is obsessed with the need to attain spiritual purification through righteous behavior and serial reincarnation. Fanon domain from the Book of Sacrifices. ==Seradan== ::Cultural Level: Chivalric ::Landscape: Temeprate Forests, Hills ::Motif: [[Stupid Neutral]] ::[[Darklord]]: Geren Horstadt A domain from which all of the metaphorical life has been sapped; a dull and colorless place of dull and colorless people, its inhabitants almost aggressively average, sluggish and dreamy in their actions. All the better to torment its darklord. Fanon domain from the Book of Secrets. ==The Shining Bay== A fanon Cluster that amalgamates Paridon and Timor with Nosos before revamping all three lands, found in [[Quoth the Raven]] #2. ==Shuraz'tun Kir== ::Cultural Level: Classical ::Landscape: Desert Graveyard ::Motif: [[Ghoul]]-haunted Cemetary ::[[Darklord]]: Mirogola, the Living Ghoul A fanon domain from [[Quoth the Raven]] #1. Located in the extreme south of Pharazia, linked by a hidden mistway to Hazlan. Little more than ancient cemetary, haunted by its darklord. ==Stonewall== ::Cultural Level: Civalric ::Landscape: Temperate Forests & Mountains ::Motif: Puritan Intolerance ::[[Darklord]]: Bethany Stone Once a small town near Salem, Massachusetts in the real world - or at least its Gothic Earth analogue, Stonewall has been ripped from its moorings and cast into the myths thanks to the machinations of its darklord; a woman so self-righteous and hateful that she killed her own daughter to carry on her moral crusade. This fanon domain can be found in the [[Undead Sea Scrolls]] 2002. ==Tsuu-y-Teke== ::Cultural Level: Stone Age ::Landscape: Warm Deserts, Hills & Mountains ::Motif: Desert Country Native American Mythology ::[[Darklord]]: Heresa Heri, The Vulture King A domain inspired by the myths of desert-dwelling Native American cultures. A realm of seemingly eternal day, haunted by a malevolent vulture-spirit who once tried to steal all the lights of day and night for himself. Fanon. First appeared in the [[Books of S|Book of Shadows]] for 2e, then was updated to 3e in the [[Undead Sea Scrolls]] 2002. ==Verbena== ::Cultural Level: Medieval ::Landscape: Non-Existent ::Motif: Resentment, Witchcraft ::[[Darklord]]: Irka Borova One of the smallest Domains imaginable, Verberna is a domain that consists of a single building; a humble, one-story herbalist shop and its attendant garden, with grey stone walls and a wooden roof. It lies within a settlement of the [[Dungeon Master]]'s choice, and who knows? Maybe it moves throughout the wider Demiplane. Found in [[Quoth the Raven]] #15. ==Vin'Ejal== ::Cultural Level: Medieval ::Landscape: Arctic Coastal Mountain ::Motif: ::[[Darklord]]: Benada Nameless A frigid island that drifts in an icy sea, whose people struggle to survive in the face of the eternal winter and the packs of [[seawolf|seawolves]] haunting their rich seas, haunted by a most unusual darklord; a [[yuan-ti]]-blooded [[weresnake]]! Fanon domain from the Book of Souls. ==Vulnara== ::Cultural Level: Late Chivalric to Renaissance ::Landscape: Temperate Forests, Hills, Mountains ::Motif: All-Consuming Bitterness ::[[Darklord]]: Kasselheim Blightlyng A realm of unusually somber and technology-focused [[gnome]]s and [[svirfneblin]], shaped by the prejudices of a bitter, self-loathing, humor-hating gnomish [[vampire]] cursed with failing senses and growing madness. This fanon domain can be found in the [[Undead Sea Scrolls]] 2002. ==Vultharesk== ::Cultural Level: Dark Ages, Renaissance on the Godwyn Estate ::Landscape: Cold Mountains ::Motif: Moral Guardianship ::[[Darklord]]: Sir Trevor Godwyn, "The Mirror Man" A strict, almost puritanical domain obsessed with the necessities of survival and averse to all things that are not "right" or "proper". But this attitude is not born out of morals or self-righteousness, but fear, for they are haunted by an ever-present spirit who will punish those that fails to live up to his strict sense of decency. Fanon domain from the Book of Shadows. ==Wayward on the Bone Sands== ::Cultural Level: Chivalric ::Landscape: Barren Desert ::Motif: Cannibalism, Killer Kids ::[[Darklord]]: Caleb Wicks A cursed desert village of former humans turned into [[quevari]] after being seduced into genocide against (and cannibalism of) their [[gnome]] neighbors by the malicious child cannibal Caleb Wicks. Fanon domain from the Book of Secrets. ==Whal== ::Cultural Level: Renaisssance ::Landscape: Cold Forested Hills ::Motif: Moby Dick ::[[Darklord]]: Captain Jacobi Robertsonn A sturdy, practical domain dedicated to the hunting of fish, seals and whales... no mean feat when your land is home to the demiplane's largest congregation of [[wereorca]]s. Fanon domain from the Book of Sorrows. ==Yatehcaa== ::Cultural Level: Iron Age ::Landscape: Mountains, High Desert ::Motif: Native American Mythology ::[[Darklord]]: Coyote A domain based on certain Native American myths, where the people live simple, happy lives, whilst trying to avoid the attentions of the malicious trickster and fallen hero-deity Coyote. This fanon domain can be found in the [[Undead Sea Scrolls]] 2002.
