Goldar

Goldar is an Eldorian continent in the 4th Edition Campaign.

Goldar is the largest continent on Eldor by a sizeable amount. It has the most large cities, the second biggest mountain range and the only lake. It is inhabited mainly by humans in the south and east, bar Armalog, which is originally a Half-Elf settlement. In the western cities, there is an equal mix of all races.

To its east is its brother continent Cloyr, and to the southwest is Streyr, with whom West Goldar oft has conflict. In times of peace a wealthy trade route passes between the two, but an ongoing conflict has weakened the both.

Outright fighting between the two has ceased due to lack of resources.

History
Goldar is a continent divided. To the east there is prosperity, to the south there is alliance and to the west is naught but war. Armalog and Sellocest have long united in war against L&aacute;ster, while Lethennor and Linesse have forever been allied to Portknock in the Southern Allegiance. Castadon and Dorth are in a long standing trade empire, The Order Of The Four.

Geography and Social Significance
Goldar has a large, semi-unexplored mountain range in the North named Centerrange, where rumour has it Dwarves reside.

It also has the world's only lake. It has no name but Lake, because, being the only one, there is no need to differentiate between any. It is a site of great historical and religious significance to all of Eldor's nine deities.

North Goldar has a cool temperate climate, but the southern parts almost mirror that of an equatorial region.

To Lake's east is the forest C&oacute;lite, which is the most pleasant of all forests in Eldor.

The combination of war and unease in the west and prosperity in the east make Goldar a continent wildly varying in the quality of life and social importance.
