The Urra Highlands (pronounced UR-rah) is an eroded plateau, a wild region of rugged hills. Considerably more arid than much of the rest of Thadria, there are few permanent communities in the region. Nomadic tribes of gnolls make their camps among the hills, sometimes venturing into the more settled regions of Forloroth & Valadhel, Ishtar, and Erenon.
The Urra Highlands are perhaps best known for the spine dragons that dwell there, who often rule over small clans of hill giants that worship them as minor gods. These dragons used to be a significant threat to Forloroth & Valadhel, back in the days when the two provinces were still part of Viridia, but today the risk they pose has been significantly lessened, in no small part due to the work of the Viridian legions.
