Welcome to Yazur Island!

For those just learning about Omeria, Yazur Island is a 900-square-mile island off Omeria's northeastern coast. It's approximately 50 miles from Imfe Caan Asaari, the "capital" city of Vaskil Valley. Once the site of a few noteworthy Pressonian settlements, Yazur Island now serves as an arcane prison for Omeria's most dangerous spellcasters; that's because 20-foot-tall, mouthless, horned cyclopes that call the island home generate fields of antimagic that extend up to 15 miles off the island's shores. Furthermore, the quickest passage back to the mainland, the Straights of Libby, is riddled with dangerous creatures.


Let's Learn More

Keeping this information in mind, plus all the awesome content ideas you supplied a few weeks ago, it's time to start detailing Yazur Island's twenty significant locations. Above is the map of Yazur Island that I created with Inkarnate.

Each week, I hope to offer a complete map for each micro-spot and an associated adventure. That way, when I'm done, you'll have an entire campaign setting to take characters from levels 1-20.

We'll start with Level 1 content and go from there. That way, you can kick off the campaign right away.

So far, we have four spots picked:

  • #2 - Forest of Faces 
  • #4 - Gianetto's Emporium (ETA October 14, 2022)
  • #14 - Cemetary of Steel (ETA October 21, 2022)
  • #15 - The Whistling Monolith (ETA October 7, 2022)

Pick the Spot That Seems the Most Interesting

Below, I've listed all 20 options from the map minus those we've already created. Most have little more than a name and a few minor details. It's your job to help me figure out the rest.

1) Baramis Ruins. Pressonian ruins at the north end of the island.

3) The Mine. Rumors persist that it hides a deadly artifact.

5) Fury. One of the island's major prisoner settlements.

6) The Anorians. A cabin belonging to a pair of gun mage spies.

7) Kelinore's Hut. Home to a necromancer named Kelinore Smithson Brinewater.

8) The Star Menhirs. The territory of a druid circle called The Band of Stars.

9) Megegion Ruins. Pressonian ruins in a swamp on the island's west side.

10) Frankmoor. A town of former artificers, mostly gnomes.

11) The Wake's Aerie. Karsts at the island's center in which werevultures live.

12) Rot. Goblinoid prisoner village.

13) Ilikluty Tower. Home to a cult of evil former spellcasters.

16) Tragylos Ruins. Pressonian ruins at the island's southeastern end.

17) Freedom. A prisoner settlement.

18) Dinzertown. A prisoner settlement consisting of predominantly Dinzers from Odonburg.

19) The Hags. Home to a trio of martial hags.

20) Stormpit. A lock-up for potent magic items.

Vote for the One You Like Best

Below, vote for the spot where we should start our campaign. Whatever you pick, I'll make it work, regardless of how crazy it sounds.

Next week, we'll pick another one and so on until we get down to the very last spot. That'll be our 20th-level location.

I look forward to reading the results.

I can’t believe the hags or Stormpit have not been picked yet

Mines are always fun to explore. Especially when they have hidden corridors, ancient altars used to talk to God's, or sarcophagus containing ancient evil.

I feel like the mines might be last! Mines tapped into underground tunnel connected to an even older structure? The crashed ship? Source of power for the monolith? Mega ooze?

Might be location based on the map rather than popularity…
