Aesar Island

From gronkfinder

Aesar Island (pronounced AY-sar) is a warm and rather dry island on the southeastern edge of the Tabaha Bay.

Once part of the Kingdom of Oscan, since the rise of the undead Aesar Island has been under the control of the de facto independent nation of Aesar. Many refugees fled to the island, which now struggles under the weight of a vastly increased population and periodic undead incursions.

Seasonal rains provide the plants and animals of Aesar with enough to live on, but conditions can be quite arid. As with the nearby mainland, the weather is warm year round with essentially no winter to speak of.

The flora of Aesar is very similar to that of the mainland, though with far fewer trees. The fauna is likewise much the same. Aesar lacks many large wild animals, however, as they have long since been hunted to near extinction. A large number of small magical creatures live feral on Aesar, especially around the capital city, the descendants of released familiars and the like.
