History

For reasons unknown, the isle of Colchis has been at war with the Port of Umbrin for as long as the inhabitants can remember.

Geography

Colchis sits within the Lothian Reaches of the Eusian Ocean, almost directly north of Tasur'ke and directly south of Umbrin. The north side of the island is a cove and the connecting beach. The eastern side of this cove is reserved for the Colchian military fleet, while fishing vessels are docked on the western side. The beach peters out into a rocky eastern coastline, rising into severe cliffs around the south side of the island. The western shoreline shows signs of assault from Umbrin, with the wreckage of an Umbrin warship preventing pedestrian access to the southern cliffs. The interior of the island rises into a steep hill. A sandstone fortress is located at the top of the hill, where all the Colchians live. Its location allows those within to watch for enemy ships regardless of which direction they approach from.

Inhabitants

• Vray, a fortress servant
• Thorlis, the Warrior Chieftain
• Siathana, the Healer
• Vorin, High Shaman
• Vendril, Master Assassin
• Frewynne, the Warrior Chieftess

Culture

Colchis culture relies heavily on Shamanism, ancestor worship, and a reverence towards the great grey murre birds and sea serpents of the island.
