Large Locales
This is a list of the large locales of the continent of Gignes that span beyond any single listed region.

Clandeggin Mountains
At one point these mountains were called the "Grand Guard Mountains." This region is known for its particularly craggy peaks and the hordes of dwarves and goliaths who live on and under them. A few brown dragons have been spotted from time to time in the southern foothills of this region. The Vale of Lost Memories rests within this range.

Garpashyn Deserts
These vast deserts cover most of southeast Gignes. A war was fought here (c. TH 1600) by King Jarcad of Taurenia.

Ironel Sea
This body of water separates the western Taurenian Peninsula from the larger lands of Baroque. Trade routes between Konvel and Tirshan go through here. Many other trade ships make their way through here from far away lands such as the Archipelago of the Coipor Alliance, Zendankt, or even northern Ro'thas. This body of water is known for the high amount of krakens that stalk ships moving through here.

Taurenian Peninsula
The Taurenian Peninsula is split by two separate regions: Taurenia and Larshün Rovanda. Due to it's ideal trading position next to the Millagea, it has made the nation of Taurenia very rich (c. TH 1200).

Tauren River
Although this river is named after Taurenia, it actually begins somewhere far to the northeast, past Larshün-Rovanda and the Clandeggin Mountains.

Zauk Mountains
These mountains cover the majority of the southern edge of the Taurenian Peninsula and act as a geographical boundary between Taurenia and Larshün-Rovanda. Many mysterious and powerful creatures are known to reside here, including NPCs of the Slaadi Invasion--an ancient silver dragon who is part of the order of dragons known as the Shimmering Scale.

Baroque
This massive and mysterious country is home to countless creatures of wilderness, including several elves and eladrin. They say that many natural gateways into the Feywild are here in Baroque. For centuries, the natives of this region have proven to be incredibly xenophobic.

Tirshan
This elven city acts as the gateway to Baroque. Trade with the Baroquian Elves is handled here as well as all diplomatic endeavors. As a result, there may be more half-elves living here than the Baroquian Elves themselves.

Tirshan Peninsula
Housing the city of Tirshan, the luminous Tirshan Peninsula is all any foreigner from eastern realms may ever see of the hidden nation of Baroque. All foreign relations are handled here.

Tirshan Wall
This massive and magical wall crosses along the Tirshan Peninsula and is only passable by those who have a "key to Baroque." What this "key" actually is is only known to those who hold them. Apparently, access to the Feywild is much easier once one crosses the Tirshan Wall.

Larshün-Rovanda
Located on the eastern half of the Taurenian Peninsula, Larshün-Rovanda stretches into wooded lands further north on the eastern coast of Gignes. More information on this region here.

Taurenia
Located on the western half of the Taurenian Peninsula, Taurenia's influence spreads far into other territories. More information on this region here.

Vale of Lost Memories
Located north of Larshün-Rovanda, the Vale is encircled by the Clandeggin Mountains and reaches to the Mace.
