Feldare is a wide land, an island-continent roughly the size of Australia, with several large island chains nearby. It sits isolated in the middle of a large ocean, separated by thousands of miles from the main continents of its world. The peoples of the island continent are many and varied. From the hardy humans who have spread over most of its face, to the enigmatic elves, the brutal orcs, and the staid, but reliable halflings. The long history of Feldare began with the first age, the Age of the Elder Race, or elves. It then moved on to two Imperial Ages and is currently 846 years into its fourth age, the Age of Strife.
