Farrágh

Tyrannical druids rule this desert region (they are twisted druids who steal energy from the land, which is how the desert was created). Magic is outlawed here. All the varied races of Elendar are to be found here. Most of the half-orcs found in Elendar hail from Farrágh. A brutal country where slavery is legal. The ethnic group of humans from here is known as the Raghers, who speak Farraghese, the main language of the land.

Encounters

There are few settlements outside of the city-states, so only official trade caravans or slavers are typically found on the main roads of the region. (Sometimes these are one and the same). Orcs and humans are often found together in both of these types of parties, as well as the occasional half-orc.

Travel

Travel along the trade roads of Farrágh is difficult and rare. Slavers will attack and enslave any travelers along the road unless they carry an ambassadorial seal. Magic is outlawed and any magic users will be killed on sight. There are inns along the journey to provide water and shelter, but these are very different from other Elendarian inns; most of the innkeepers are spies for the Farrakian rulers and almost everyone is suspicious of each other.

Magic Users

Magic is outlawed and magic users are killed on sight. They are typically strung up on an A-frame where their hands are cut off, their tongues cut off and a bag is hung from their necks, each symbolizing the different components of spellcasting (somatic, verbal, and material). The roads leading from the Sammatri and the Kemmatri are lined with these A-frames, known as arches. The "arches of the matri" is a common Farrakian expression.
