The Wilderness

The common name for a place between civilizations, a wild expanse of land about the size of modern day Alaska. During the Age of Overgrowth, it was almost entirely left to the influence of nature, though in previous ages it had harbored many settlements of sentient creatures, including elves, halflings, and dwarves (but never humans).

Wood Elves, Centaurs, and Minotaurs may trace their ancestry directly to bands of wild kin living in the Wilderness.
