“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.
— In-game description
(Filler text.) Gendarran Fields is a broad expanse to the north of Lion's Arch. The fields proper sprawl northwards, bordered by a mountainous east and the more barren crags to the west. Krytan history has long seen these lands as a human crossroads, as both home and refuge, and in both wealth and war.
These days, life continues past the rise of Orr. In the fertile south, townsfolk and farmers strive to earn a living, tending their crops and selling their wares while nearby Ascalon Settlement deepens its roots. Elsewhere, the newly moneyed raise homes on the shores of Lake Bounty in contrast to the stoic foothold established by members of the Vigil in the north. Time has brought many changes, with Lion's Arch revived and newly independent, but threats old and new still remain. Harathi and Tamini centaurs raid the northwest, while the undead are ever-present in the southern swamps. Of particular concern to the struggling peace is the pirate plague upon the lakes--a reminder that even in such times, friend is never far away from foe. (Filler text.)

Fauna and foes[edit]
- Pirates: A variety of pirates prowl the lands, swarming around the shores of Lake Gendarr and Lake Bounty.
- Fish: Large fish swim through the many waters of Gendarran Fields.
- Bats: Bats inhabit the Fields' varied terrains, from the fruit bats in the orchards to the cave and cliff bats in less hospitable areas.
- Centaurs: The age-old centaur threat holds strong with the many encampments in Blood Hill Camps and Hezran Outcrops.
- Undead: Like the corruption of Orr washed ashore, undead foes lurk in the southern swamps.
- Spiders: From forest to cave, these venomous pests still frustrate the townsfolk of Cornucopian Fields and the workers at First Haven.
- Raptors: The birdlike dinosaurs occasionally cross a traveler's path; they can be seen in Broadhollow Bluffs as well as in Gendarran Fields' mountainous east.
- Skelk, drakes, and skales: These amphibious creatures abound near any body of water.
