Minia is one of two fanciful areas for newbies only, the other being the valley of Lodi.
Geography
Minia is composed of four distinct subsections: the Pixie Village, the Ember Tower, the Libra Dungeon, and the pygmy village of Miba.
Culture
The Pixie Queen and the Imp Lord are sworn enemies, each eagerly enlisting the help of any newbie willing to aide them in their quest to destroy the other. No love is lost between the kobolds and the pygmies, as each can be found plotting the demise of the other at any time.
Safety
Newbies within this area are protected by Auma and a pair of large, strong ogres under her command. The ogres will eject any adventurer from this area who is over level twenty-one, or sufficiently infamous regardless of their level of experience, or who has had the experience to embrace their class. Additionally, Amau will deliver young adventurers to Lodi, the other area that exists for newbies only.
Inhabitants
In addition to the denizens found within the area, Vellis, the butterfly collector, plies his trade at the ivy covered archway leading into Minia.
