It is reachable by a beautifully designed ramp-like bridge over a gorge. smaller buildings designed to trap heat inside line the village on this tundra, which is guarded by beautifull a forest. Inhabitants More Dwarves, Orcs, Half-Orcs and Half-Elves live here than in other nations. The only Ice Elves in Andor, an offshoot of the Night Elves, live in a crystal forest-city to the northwest of Iclaria. These elves have grey-blue skin and eyes any shade of pink, blue, purple or red. Their hair is white, silver, blue or black, and lightens to a glistening translucent with age.

Capital City A small town built naturally into the mountain around the pass near the middle reaches. The Leonin here guard the pass and have a set of trials that must be passed at the summit as well as a shrine that must be visited at the peak before they allow travelers to cross either end. Inhabitants Leonin are the main inhabitants here, and their tribe is exclusive. Also, many spirits reside in or under the mountain.

Khelika Khelika is a land steeped in deep occult mysteries. the most powerfull of mages hail from this land, or else come to reside here to further their powerfull and ancient arcane studies. while many masters of the Light Magic are found here, also the Darkest and most foul secrets are hidden here. Capital City Inhabitants Factions Underdark City-States Nilyasevher, The City of Weeping Webs A Dark-Elf city-state located in a lake-filled cavern West of the Kuo-toa city-state (name), and below Khelika. The lake is fed by a river that runs off from a spring under Mt. Shido. The river comes in through a tunnel, spills out into the cavern and then comes out on the other side in a wider tunnel that is used as a two-lane trading route. The cavern itself is full of stalagmites, stalactites, and columns, and littered with little islands. The buildings are carved from these rock formations and built on the islands, and the ruling house is built into a structure of columns on a large central island and is made of adamantite. Faerie fire decorates the columns so that teh whole cavern glimmers faintly. The columns are connected by a network of suspended streets, though the lake is also used as a canal system. Nilyasevhr has abundant resources, as the lake is fresh water and teeming with aquatic life. The dampness of teh cavern is also perfect for cultivating fungus, and many farms exist on the walls and islands of teh city. imported land meet and semi-aquatic reptiles and other animals round out the diet of the Dark-Elves of Weeping Webs. the style of dress here is simple yet striking. Materials used most often are silk, reptile skin, fish skin, leather, steel, mithril and adamantite. Commoners dress somber, while nobals dress frighteningly. Most outfits are either skimpy or form-fitting, so as to show off the body while allowing the wearer to swim unrestricted. Inilaraafin, The Spiraling Cacoon A Dark-Elf city-state under (halfling nation). The city is a large cone-shaped cavern with a gigantic column extending down the middle. This column acts as the city clock, and the uppuer portion of it is also the ruling house (which also extends into a treehouse fort on the surface in the woods). The walls are carved in such a way as to spiral upwards with considerable sized layers with streets and buildings. generally, noble houses are built into the wall while businesses and pathetic shelters are built on the layer itself. some cars are used here, as surface trade allows the Dark-Elves of Inilaraafin to aquire oil without drilling too deeply for it (which would invoke the wrath of the Sea-Elves to the south).

Games and Sports ((will be edited for cleanness and neatness.))
Fieldball
Fieldball is played on a special terrain designed by the home team of the stadium it is played on. Each half of the court is identicle in setup, ensuring a fair game. The point is to get the ball into the goal on he opposite team. Whichever team ha sthe most goals at the end of 10 minutes wins the game.
RULES:
The Field is a circle 360 feet in diameter, with obstacles and features specific to the stadium.
Each team has 7 players; 1 Goalie and 6 Fielders. They can be arranged in any formation before the game starts, but the Goalie must never leave the goal area, which is a hemisphere 5 feet in radius, and the no player can start less than 30 feet from the ball.
The ball starts off on a platform in the center of the field, and when the signal to begin sounds the players race from their starting positions for it. Tackling, intercepting, tripping, and grappling are all excepted, but hits below the belt, and excessive force get you a warning once, and then a personal foul. For each foul the offended player can make a Foul Shot from 30 feet away, and after 3 personal fouls a player must sit out teh rest of the game.
The game is 10 minutes long, divided into 2 5-minute halves.
Team uniforms are specially designed to neither hinder nor help any player. they must pass scrutiny before being excepted by the Official Fieldball League. They grant a +2 armor bonus to AC, have a +8 max dexterity, 10% arcane spell fail chance, no check penalty, are enchanted with an ability to cast Water Breathing 1/day as a 5th-level wizard, and they weigh 3 lbs. they cost 6015gp.
STADIUMS:
Nightfall Kingdom Stadium
This stadium is designed with 18 pillars spaced 5 feet apart in a line on either side of the center platform. another pillar stands in the center of each quarter-court point, and a pool of water 60 feet in diameter and 30 feet deep surrounds both.
Al-Vheda Stadium
The Al-Vhedan Stadium is on of the most interesting ones. the platform in teh center is 30 feet up a staircase encircling a gazebo, and the base of the platform is 30 feet wide. knotted roppes dangle from magnetic platforms hovering 30 feet above the ground and evenly spaced throughout the field. the goals are placed diagonally 60 feet up facing downwards at a 30 degree angle, and the goalie's platform is an elevator that reaches the goal.
Stadium of Iclaria
The center platform rests on top of a 60 foot tall icey precipice that is 60 feet wide at the base. two trees flank the area 20 feet from each goal, and a 10 foot deep, 5 foot wide trench with rope ladders on the inside span edge to edge another 30 feet from them. the area on teh goal side of the trench is covered in slippery ice.
Stadium of Ghaza
The Ghaza Stadium is mostly a flat grassy expanse, but outcroppings and ledges surround the 15 foot wide straight path through the middle on either side.
(halfling nation) Stadium
The goals are each up a hill and the platform is in a sinkhole in the center, surrounded by trees, three to a side.
(gnome nation) Stadium
this stadium is a flat expanse, but is covered in trees with only 5 feet of distance between each one. only the area 30 feet from each goal is clear.
Templatyalie
Templatyalie is an elvish game, meaning "Game of Magic", though it is also a common game among the Viera. It is a match of magical prowess and physical/mental reflexes. Two players at a time, each on teams of 12, create balls of magical or psionic energy in their hands and must concentrate on it while attempting to shoot missle-type spells at a target facing towards the players right. one point is earned for each strike, but the other player can counter his opponents blasts and even attempt to break his opponent's concentration on his energy ball. the round ends when either players' energy ball ends, which causes that player a loss of 4 points. whoever has the most points at the end of the round wins. At the end of the game the team with the most total points wins the game, and awards are given out for each winning player and also the top scorer as well. Templatyalie is often played for lots or ante.
