The Kingdom of Tursh lies upon the northeast tip of the crescent shaped continent of Hylrexia. It is a lush and green land filled with many rivers and lakes.

The kingdom is split in twain, both figuratively and literally. In the more “civilized” east, wealth and privilege have created a climate of decadence among the nobility and a life of squalor for the peasantry who have come to think of themselves more as prey than sentient creatures. In the northeast, the paranoid religious rhetoric of the Duchy of Gwen threatens to engulf the region in civil war, while the Duchy of Aslyn in the southeast shows signs of a cultural renaissance.

The Tursh stand about 5’10’ on average at a weight of 180 lbs. Their complexions are generally fair with a wide range of hair colors from blond to red to black. Humans have the standard lifespan, attaining adulthood at the age of 15 and considered middle aged around 45. Most do not live beyond the age of 100.
