The Great Plains are a broad expanse of flatlands central to southern Izril. Also known as the Gnoll Plains, it is the home of the nomadic Plains Gnoll tribes.
Overview[edit | edit source]
The Great Plains is the only place in the world firmly under the control of Gnolls. Historically, there were tribes found in other geographical locations, such as forests, mountains, and even underground. With the Humans colonizing Izril's north, and the Drake cities slowly encroaching on the territory, the Gnoll territory has dwindled to a fifth of its original size.[1]
Several giant magicore crystals, once used in Fissival's teleporatation network, were repurposed and buried across the Great Plains to suppress the Gnolls' arcane abilities.[2]
Also beneath the Great Plains lies the lost Kingdom of Gnolls,[3] now occupied by Raskghar.
Geography[edit | edit source]
The Great Plains primarily consists of flat grasslands with rivers, with few trees. It is divided by the eastern and southern parts of the High Passes. The Drake cities are outside the Great Plains, with Oteslia being the closest Walled City.
After the Meeting of the Tribes, three of the greatest Gnolls in history magically expanded Izril's landmass, essentially wedging a raised section of the seafloor into the Great Plains,[3] doubling or tripling it in size.[4]
