Utgard is the southernmost area of Heimr's main continent. It is dominated by a massive mountain range spanning nearly the entire area. This mountain range is divided into three separate chains; the south-western chain is called Gataur's Teeth and is the birth place of the Tellurians?. The eastern chain is called White Peaks and the north-western chain is called the Pillars of Ice.
Large Villages (Cities) Although, after the destruction of their glorious capital Bregtahlem, the trolls refuse to live in cities, some of their villages are large enough to be called cities.
The Order was founded during the Spirit War? between the tellurians and the trolls. Some trolls believed that the troll generals were too soft on the tellurian. They believed, that by honouring their real ancestors they would be granted the strength to defeat the tellurian. Thus, they started worshipping Wana and following her ways. The gained a small but very loyal group of followers, whom carried out special missions.
High Language: Troll Harbour
Low Language: Trollenvaart
Native Language (Troll?): JallaPlem
Trollenvaart, also known as JallaPlem by its local inhabitants, is a group of 7 islands closely located to each other. It was originally settled over 1500 years ago by Trolls, who still make up the majority of the population. However, in recent years the islands have been turned into an Utgardian marine base of strategic importance. This has brought along quite a few shipbuilders and merchants.
Shrykes are ghostly white-winged creatures surrounding the more cavernous regions of the mountains of Utgard. They are supreme predators during the night and day. Sharing characteristics of both the common bat and spider, the adult Shryke is capable of lifting a man-sized creature with its' powerful hindlegs. When risen to an adequate height, the Shryke drops it's prey unto solid ground, disabling them. After landing and approaching the collapsed victim, they spin a coccoon around their body and drag them to their home cave.

Low Language: (n/a)
Native Language: (n/a)
Fireforge is the third inhabited city of the Tellurians. It was founded in the Caldera Rim crater after the catastrophic event creating the Caldera Wasteland. The Caldera Rim crater offered a unique opportunity for the Tellurians, as the crater contains many direct vents into the world's core.
The Caldera Rim is the low mountain range surrounding the crater in the middle of the Caldera Wasteland, although often it is also used to refer to the entire crater. The crater and mountain range encompasses the Tellurian city of Fireforge.
The Caldera Wasteland is a large desert to the south of Midgard. It is enclosed by the Morgana Mountains? on the east side and the White Peaks and Pillars of Ice mountain ranges on the south side. It is a barren of rocks, sand, cacti and the occasional Orc ruin, with only small settlements and nomadic tribes living outside of the city of Fireforge.
History
The wasteland was originally a lush jungle, the birth place of the Orcs.
