Nations
Vendhya
Vendhya is a wealthy, caste-driven southern empire in the Hyborian Age. Ruled from Ayodhya by Devi Yasmina, its culture blends hedonistic pleasure, exquisite erotic art, and a rigid cosmic order under the god Asura. The state thrives on fine textiles, agriculture, and unbreakable light steel.
Nations
Turan
Turan is a vast, militaristic empire surrounding the Vilayet Sea. It acts as the primary power in the East. Ruled from the capital of Aghrapur, its influence is enforced by a potent fleet and a standing army that dominates the surrounding kingdoms through sheer size, and ruthless ambition.
Nations
Stygia
Stygia is a xenophobic, dark theocracy obsessed with death and the cult of Set. Anchored by the fertile, life-giving River Styx, this sinister land of desert ruins and megalithic cities is ruled by a ruthless elite and guarded by a disciplined army, serving as a bastion of forbidden sorcery.
Nations
Shem
Shem acts as a crucial cultural and geographic bridge between the northern Hyborian kingdoms and the southern empire of Stygia. It is a vast, arid land divided by nature into two distinct zones: the fertile, pastoral West and the harsh, desolate East.
