Galetide is off the shores of one of the most inhospitable regions in the realm, the think jungles of the Dyvine Coast. It is said that the jungles are only home to fierce beasts and savage folk, but nestled in the green foliage is the remains of once prosperous nation. A few fishing village dot the coast as well as smugglers hideouts, while only the bravest venture deep into the jungles.
Being nestled below the Dragon-spine Range, the steep cliff faces accumulates all the rainfall the monsoons and storms provide in the region leaving the Dyvine Coast moist, damp, and thick with ever-growing vegetation and leaving the other side of the Dragon-Spine Range the dry desert it is. The weather and climate is the reason for region being a deadly mix of swamp and jungle, with numerous muddy sinkholes, boggy basin, and numerous lakes and rivers.
Traveling the jungles itself is a challenge, the inhabitants of the jungle are more feared. A myriad of beast live within the jungle, from large predatory cats like panthers to the more illusive man-eating plants. More common is the native lizardfolks, ruthless and barbaric, anyone found by them are swiftly meet with spears and clubs. The tribes are territorial, and will kill any intruder they come across, including rival lizardfolk.
