NORTHWEST SECTOR

NORTHWEST SECTOR

Hot weather, rugged landscape.  The Northwest Sector is dominated by an active volcanic range.  North of this range, it is hotter and more humid- tropical rainforests can be found along the coast.  On the south side and especially inland, the rainfall is much less.  There we find seasonal woodland and wetlands.  In Summer season, the dry season, the wetlands are reduced, acting like grassland.  Wildlife abounds in the Northwest Sector, including herds of migratory animals in the Savannah.

NORTH SECTOR

A warm land, with much less rainfall than in the northwest and northeast extremes.  Massive mountain ranges divide the region.  The north sector is dominated by the great breaks in these mountain chains, making this region a strategic zone for those traveling the length of the continent.

GAZETTEER

THE NORTHEAST

The northeast region features Cape Tropic, a hot, humid, rainforest covered peninsula, and an archipelago of tropical islands.

South of the mountain range, temperatures cool off.

WEST SECTOR

The West Sector is dry, with some forested areas along the coast where the coastal mountains catch the rain.  Most of the region is desert, grassland, and savannah.  It gets drier towards the south, where the desert is known for hot summer days and cold winter nights.

The heart of the Southlands continent, with the Divide Range in the center of it.  To the east, there is grassland, with rainfall steadily increasing towards the east coast and the lakes.  To the west, desert and steppe.

EAST SECTOR

The East Sector is defined by the Seaway and massive inland lake and river system, offering navigation routes into the heart of the continent.  The climate is temperate, with forests on the east coast thinning to grassland in the west.

SOUTHWEST SECTOR

SOUTHWEST SECTOR

Cool and dry, much of it is temperate/cold desert, reaching tundra in the extreme south.  The coastal region, and the strip along the western river, are much more hospitable than the dry lands inland, which includes the driest portions of the Southlands.

Grassland, steppe, a swath of coniferous forest at the south... and the southernmost of the two great breaks in the continental divide mountain range.

SOUTHEAST SECTOR

SOUTHEAST SECTOR

Temperate, getting much cooler towards the south where there is broad belt of coniferous forest.  Most of the region gets plenty of rainfall, but there are grasslands and even some cool steppe in the west.
