Vishteer Campaign World
Intro/Background
My Campaign world has grown over the past 30+ years from a few scratched out maps on hex paper to more piles of notes in more notebooks than I want to think about. I'm posting a few of the pages here and will add more as time and my interest permit. Feel free to use this material for any non-profit use you may have.
World Geography
Vishteer uses the real world as geography. Here is a start on describing some of the regions of Miraborian Geography.
Note that this also includes a description of the "Lands in Shadow" beneath Vishteer.
World Timeline
A history of the campaign world can be found here: Vishteer History This timeline may get broken out on specific sub-pages, but major updates should always be recorded here.
Musings on the World
Some musings and ideas on a variety of issues such as gods, disease, magic, the planes and more can be found here Musings
Campaign Centers:
I currently have four "Campaign Centers", three located on the east coast of Miraboria, and one further inland.
- Harothar is a dwarven and human kingdom in the north-temperate regions, barely touching the rocky, storm-tossed coast and stretching many miles inland to a long narrow lake. Flanking it on the north is a region infamous for vicious hordes of orcs, hobgoblins and other evil demi-humans. To the south lies the mysterious and extremely dangerous blasted landscape of Umade's Barrens, created hundreds of years earlier in an attempt to destroy the world.
- GreenVale lies on the central coastal region across a large bay and stretching far inland up several major river valleys. This human and half-elven Kingdom is rich with resources and thriving economically. It has recently survived an existential threat, and newfound political stability seems assured.

Near Greenvale:
Barony of Pintar's Keep
Castle Naerytar
Temple of Aragh *hidden
- Miran occupies a narrow peninsula in the south-eastern coastal region of Miraboria, and along both the Gulf and the Ocean. Miran is a fragment of an ancient empire clinging to past glory. A theocratic Autocracy, Miran's leadership is supposedly made up of a ruler and a senate, but the priesthood has long since taken true power. Magic is forbidden on pain of death, and slavery awaits any who attempt to defy the mighty god Centarius - god of merchants and wealth, of promises made and broken, of honesty and theivery, greed and generosity.

Whistlewater
Escruag (ruined City of Colors)
- Tallowsland - this campaign used the DungeonADay setting, and elements from Paizo's Kingmaker campaign. Major focuses for the adventure included:
- Valentia
Miraboria as a whole:

Narbada Campaign Notes
South of Miran lies the continent of Mistland, home to many small kingdoms and city states, including Daintallia, Hadraith, Comaria and Vanhark. The Serpent's Teeth are the Pirate Isles, Southern Isles, and Eor.
Continents beyond Miraboria
Island of the City-States
The "Old Continent"
As on the Land, under the Sea there are many realms, some friendly with landfolk, others not so much. Commonly, these realms are divided by race, unlike most surface realms. Each race will have one or more regions which they defend as their own, and from which they will trade with others. Major known realms are described here, but there are many other smaller towns and communities that are unknown to the surface folk except perhaps locally.
