Dredgehaunt Cliffs

The Dredgehaunt Cliffs were once the domain of the dwarves, but when that race went down into the depths, the mole-like dredge claimed these lands as their own, and battle with the jotun, the grawl, and the norn for control.

Frostgorge Sound

The awakening of Jormag flooded much of the north, and now new races are fleeing into this land ahead of the Elder Ice Dragon's terrible minions.

Snowden Drifts

Snowden Drifts, a frozen stretch of high peaks and deep lakes, is the main artery between Kryta and Ascalon. Sons of Svanir, centaurs, and dredge all stalk the Drifts, and travelers are advised to stay on the main road or within the protective walls of a haven.

Lornar's Pass

Lornar's Pass is a string of narrow valleys that lead down from the Shiverpeaks in the north to the Sea of Sorrows in the south. Its deep valleys are the haunts of wild creatures, ancient ruins, and hidden places of power long concealed from prying eyes.

Wayfarer Foothills

The norn around Hoelbrak have established the Wayfarer Foothills as their primary hunting grounds. Further north, there lies a treacherous landscape of frozen fields and icy crags corrupted by the Sons of Svanir, norn who revere the Elder Dragon Jormag.

Timberline Falls

Timberline Falls is a rugged upland dominated by two great river systems. It is on the frontiers of Tyrian civilization, and is the home of lone freeholds, adventurer camps, and a myriad of races, including hylek, dredge, and quaggan.

Plains of Ashford

Long ago, the human kingdom of Ascalon occupied the Plains of Ashford. Now, the ruins of that once-great nation lay strewn across the landscape, and the ghosts of the past haunt any who pass through their territory.

Blazeridge Steppes

The charr once ruled the Blazeridge Steppes, but the rising of the Elder Dragon Kralkatorrik left a corrupted swath across the land. Now the legions contend not only against the creatures of the Dragonbrand, but against the ogres who have come down from the mountains.

Fireheart Rise

The Fireheart Rise writhes in the grip of the Flame Legion. Once the rulers of the charr, this deposed legion has been driven back by the other charr, but still controls this blasted wasteland of volcanoes and tar pits from their massive fortress at the Flame Citadel.

Iron Marches

The Iron Marches was once a resource-rich region of Ascalon, but has been transformed into the front lines of the fight between the Flame Legion and the rest of the Charr. Forces of both sides skirmish along the edge of the Dragon Brand, each seeking control of the region.

Fields of Ruin

Until recently, the Fields of Ruin were the scene of the ongoing struggle between humans and charr, centering on the siege of the human city of Ebonhawke. Now a fragile truce exists between the two races, while radical elements on both sides seek to shatter that peace.

Diessa Plateau

The Diessa Plateau's ranches and mills supply the legions with food and materials critical to their operations. Saboteurs, such as human Separatists and the Flame Legion, prey on workers, buildings, and requisitions shipments throughout the region.

Lion's Arch

Lion's Arch, built upon the wreckage of the Krytan City of the same name, has grown and prospered in the years since the rise of the Orrian Dragon. Founded by pirates and dependent on trade, the city has become a common ground for all the races of Tyria.

Bloodtide Coast

The Bloodtide Coast is a haven for pirates, brigands and ruffians of all types. The region's many islands and caves hide those who prey on travelers from Lion's Arch, even as the rising tide of undead forces ships inland from the sea.

Divinity's Reach

Divinity's Reach is the greatest city in the human nation of Kryta. It is laid out like a giant wheel. Its upper city contains Queen Jennah's royal palace and the Chamber of Ministers. Six high roads, each dedicated to a god, divide the lower city into districts.

Queensdale

Queensdale is the heartland of the reforged human nation of Kryta. These rolling hills and well-watered fields are threatened by marauding centaurs and thieving bandits. The Seraph serve as its protectors.

Gendarran Fields

Gendarran Fields is an area of contrasts. The Shiverpeaks rise in the east, farms dominate its southern hills, and to the west, Krytans fight centaurs in a centuries-old war. Meanwhile, at the heart of the region, pirates gallivant upon Lake Gendarr and raid surrounding communities.

Kessex Hills

At the southern border of embattled Kryta, the Kessex Hills are overrun with marauding centaurs. Wrecked human towns dot the countryside, and a heavily-patrolled road from Lion's Arch connects with lands to the south.

Caledon Forest

Caledon Forest, the sylvari homeland, spreads outward from the base of the Pale Tree. Sadly, this vast green land knows little peace. Orrian undead emerge from the surf, threatening the Grove.

Mount Maelstrom

The rugged uplands of the Steamspur Mountains are overshadowed by the power of a singular great mountain. This is the wildest of lands, far from the prying eyes of the races of Tyria.

Sparkfly Fen

Broad estuaries give the Orrian undead easy passage into Sparkfly Fen. A wave of Zhaitan's minions drove hylek refugees before it and captured vast territory. Wyld Hunt valiants and Vigil crusaders fight to regain control from an untiring enemy.

Brisban Wildlands

Unclaimed by any nation or race, the Brisban Wildlands are a haven for secretive asura labs, bandit encampments, and large communities of skritt. Its eastern regions are dominated by Mount Gnashington, but the great cavern-riddled mountain gives way to more desolate terrain to the west.

Metrica Province

Metrica Province is the domain of the asura of Rata Sum. The landscape is littered with their private laboratories and discarded experiments, and entire landscapes have been transformed under the not-so-gentle hands of these small geniuses.
