The Fangs of Khurazar (pronounced CUR-ah-zar) are a major mountain range that separates the tropical grasslands and forests of Brightmarch and the Laqto Rainforest from the dry and arid Sangora Desolation. The mountains almost reach the Gulf of Aserdus in the west and the Tabaha Bay in the east.

The Fangs vary from rocky ridges and summits free of vegetation to tree-covered slopes. Most of the mountains have no snow cover, but some of the highest peaks do. In general, more precipitation and vegetation can be found on the southern side of the mountain range. Aside from the dwarves and sun giants of Kharakun, few live in the rough and hazardous mountains.

In the south, the Fangs connect to the Southern Fangs, usually considered part of the same range. Smaller and more eroded than the rest of the Fangs, the tree-covered Southern Fangs almost divide the Laqto Rainforest in two. In comparison to the east to west part of the mountain range, the Southern Fangs are considerably more populated, home to a number of settlements and nomadic groups.
