Cities and Nations

• The Halls of Aentha A nation built into First Age tunnels deep under the glacier with a zenophobic view of the rest of the world. - Andrix
• Cherak Realm-aligned city in the North.
  • Firespring A tourist attraction for wealthy Dynasts, Firespring is mystery due to its tropical climate, caused by any one of several choices given to the gamemaster.
  • Scarlet Fortress The easternmost city controlled by House Ferem, and an ancient Shogunate naval depot.
• Gethamane
• Ghedaran A floating city of clocks, ratmen Lunars, and ruled by a monsterous remnant of Bagrash Kol's once-glorious empire. It's specifically to make a bit of Steampunk Exalted until Alchemicals comes out, so it's pretty damn magitech-heavy.
• Gorot, City of the Wall - A city built in the last bastion of a truly monolithic First Age fortification. Situated in the middle of the Northwest plains. - Odin
• The Haslanti League - A collection of allied city states around the White Sea
  • Crystal - A writeup done for a Haslanti League-based game. May be a little more Magitek and Final Fantasy inspired than the norm, so STs may wish to tweak the setting. MelWong
