Chultan Peninsula
From NWN2Wiki
The Chultan Peninsula is the dominant area of Southwestern Faerûn. It has an undeserved reputation of being a backward place with a complete lack of civilization populated by savages; in fact, it boasts several large cities with stable governments that are all rife with culture. The upcoming expansion pack Storm of Zehir will feature the jungles of this peninsula as part of the adventuring area.
The peninsula itself contains four countries:
- Chult: The westernmost country of the Peninsula is a dangerous place, covered almost entirely by deadly jungle and infested with disease and dangerous monsters.
- Samarach: An isolationist vassal kingdom of Nimbral. Paths through the encapsulating mountain ranges are cloaked by powerful permanent illusions.
- Thindol: A country of mountains and tall grasses. Thindol is constantly under threat from the Yuan-ti and Kuo-toa from the waters both above and below ground.
- Tashalar: The only inviting country of the peninsula. Here, foreign traders are welcomed with open arms. The natives only dwell on the northern coastline, avoiding the unclaimed southern jungles and venturing into the neighbouring Hazuk Mountains only rarely to mine precious metal.
