Tierra Creagín

Tierra Creagín is a region in the west of Tandeli, run by Advisor Roman Ambrose from the city of Vistobrille. Tierra Creagín is to the west of the river Mente and runs along most of the border river Ayuda before stopping where the Aliado joins the Ayuda. It swells out east a little around the Calorona Desert, taking the part that isn't taken my Tierra Mélgica and Tierra Eticora.

### **Natural Landmarks**

River Ayuda and the semi-tropical Ayuda Forest to the west, sea to the south, desert to the east.

### **Climate**

During the winter the region is consistently mild, but a little cooler in the forest. During the rainy season the temperature fluctuates more, with falling rain lowering the temperature, but when it isn’t raining the area becomes hotter and more humid.

## **Culture**

A land of creativity and romance. The people here are bright, outgoing, and loud, with bright clothes and buildings, dyed hair, painted bodies. The arts are well funded here, and everything’s a canvas if you’re daring enough. The people can be a bit too blunt, bold, and in your face at times, but they mean well and just want everyone to have a good time. They can seem obnoxious, naive and self-absorbed, and yes some are. Once you are in their ‘inner circle’ however you will see hard-working creative minds who will always stand with you and will do so loudly.

They love loudly. They can be a bit insensitive, but they mean well, and sometimes a bit of bluntness is what one needs.

They have a mixed opinion of magic. Showman magic is welcome, other kinds are looked down upon. Most magicians in stories and legends were evil, and this is reflected here. Not to mention the role the Ambrose family played in bringing down the Dragon Witch. General mistrust of Changelings, although they can blend in quite well.

If you were born in Tierra Creagín, you might as well have been born with an innate understanding of colour theory, vocal projection and where to stand on stage. You will be learning brushstrokes along with writing and life lessons. If you’re close to the Armed Forces, you might know some things about fighting.

### Architecture

Most houses are made of wood and can resemble log cabins when on the ground. Northernmost parts of the Tierra (and rich parts) also have the sand and limestone building materials, although there is no real consistency in style, some emulate Waldren, some try to copy and improve other Tierra’s styles, others just change to fit their environment.

For example, some settlements are entirely based in the forest. These tend to be towns that serve the Border Patrol, which mans the main bridge into Grancinco. These towns, depending on terrain, will either become completely arboreal and retreat into the trees or will build on the river’s edge and have stilt houses.

In the main city of Vistobrille, Advisor Roman made himself very popular by dropping barrels of paint in the city centre and telling the people to go for it. They proceeded to paint every surface possible with every colour they had available, which has led to Vistobrille having some colour tonal issues, such as bright orange right next to solid black. That being said, you can’t mistake it for any other city, and other settlements around Creagín have tried the same technique, making every town and village just a little more unique.
