Varanova
Varanova is a land of beauty and style. A brilliant land of color, Varanova is a picturesque country of exotic beasts and vivid forests. This, however, stands in harsh contrast with the garish dress and habits of its citizenry. Within the cities of Varanova, color represents power. Each color is a "merit," a mark of honor awarded to influential Varanovan men and women. The more colorful the person, the more respect they deserve for their accomplishments. Varanovans, contrary to the way they appear, are perhaps the most powerful fighters on the continent of Albia. Time and time again, they have fought off Neveresheen, "expeditions," into their territory. Disinterested in, "ugly, uncultured lands," the leader of Varanova, Garric Erstrom has enforced a strict policy of isolation. Only adventurers, merchants and travelers are willing to leave the boarders of Varanova for the sake of profit and glory.
