Bottenhavet: Sjobia

Sjobia: Sjobo The Region of Sjobia The influence of the empire of Sjobia (read more of its history and culture) spreads far and wide across the continent of Bottenhavet. Although it has no true cities save its central bastion of Sjobo, the vast empire has small hamlets dotted along the far reaches of the Barrage. .

Brakk Castle
This lonely castle is located on the northeastern-most point of Sjobia, hundreds of miles from Sjobo, and is strategically located on the edge of a large mountain of the same name. The castle protects the area against several indigenous foes, including frost giants and a few straggling barbarian tribes. Ulric Thorfinn spent most of his adolescence here around TH 10040.

Drado'oner
This temple is devoted to the God of Battle and Thunder, Kord. It is also an affiliate with the Order of Thunder along with roughly nine other temples spread across the Barrage.

Draern
The royal city of the Draernic Dwarves, located west of Sjobo. This area spans for several miles underneath the Barrage. While technically within the region of Sjobia, any Draernic Dwarf would proudly state that that their city, culture, and surrounding subterranean lands are absolutely independent of the empire of Sjobia.

Kordelion
Kordelion is the head temple of the several under the banner of the Order of Thunder. It is home to the Storm Lord and Thunder High Priest. The Cloud Ambassador occasionally resides here but is often out on diplomatic endeavors.

Sjobo
The capital city of Sjobia, this is by far the largest settlement in the whole of Bottenhavet. It rests within the Barrage and acts as a barricade from the Barragian Peaks.

Barragian Peaks
These colossal mountains are rumored to have an army of frost giants residing on them. How else can one explain the unusual amount of avalanches that come from them? They are located just a few miles north of Sjobo.

Hardrada Mountain
This massive mountain, residing within the Barrage only a few miles outside of Sjobo is the legendary mountain that all Highlanders must climb in order to pluck the Thorfinn Flower which only grows atop this peak.

Protected Valley
This valley gains its name from the city-dam that is Sjobo. If not for the city's placement, this valley would be a dangerous highway of avalanches.

Avalanche Crust
Directly above the Avalanche Excavation, this is the hard surface that stretches for miles between the Barragian Peaks to the north and Sjobo to the south.

Avalanche Excavation
Deep underneath the avalanches that come from the Barragian Peaks, an ongoing excavation spans for miles just north of Sjobo. Several people have worked in the excavation for nearly two decades. Such people of note include Dietrich, who is in charge of admissions into the excavation, Jukavet, who runs things at the excavation site itself, and Lars, who has until recently been in charge of hiring workers for the excavation. On TH 10057, Boreaus 21, the workers discovered ancient ruins carved into the ice.

Daeza
Visited by the adventuring group in TH 10057, these ancient ruins are where the documents of Suj Harrener were found.

Roanac Prison
Located roughly 20 miles southeast of Sjobo, this prison is located underneath a large, snowy meadow within the woods. Anyone unaware of its location would be hard-pressed to find it. Anyone unfortunate enough to reside here would be as equally hard-pressed to escape.

Fallen Leaves Grove
The average traveler will have a tough time actually finding this grove. As one of it's protector's, Ash, once said, "...those who are not the true protectors of the body of Aleen are incapable of seeing [the grove]. It is subtly disguised a midst the frost that has plagued this land." Some would argue that the grove is actually within the Feywild but nobody outside of the Fallen Leaves can be certain about that theory. Havlihi described the grove as suspended in the tethers that bind the Feywild to the Primary World, but the grove is not completely of either plane.

Red Wolf's Cabin
This secluded cabin is where the fabled Red Wolf lives. He has harbored and trained many apprentices here.
