Beyond Exilon

These places are distant trading partners slightly too far away to war with but influential. They might be visited or mentioned. Assuran is at war with bloody aztec like jungle empires to the east. Also it is possible players could come from these lands or went to a war there.

Serpent Isle

a former central hub of the monster Empire and a important sea trade city for their occupation of the world when sea levels were higher and the north less frozen.  Now only a small island remains as it was since humans, humanoids and demihumans destroyed the monster empire. Shadelport a great ruined city has attracted pirates to re settle it and who knows if anything will come of this mostly ruined city. Sea Travel away from the coast is risky limiting contact with this land. Monster Island off the coast is a magically preserved remnant of the Monster Empire where humans would never voluntarily go. Many colony ships have gone there but little contact returns due to poor sea navigation for humnans.

In a future age it is renamed Exile Island and the city Shadelport is a world famous haven for pirates and adventurers. Under the rule of a mysterious masked immortal Barron.

Civilized lizard folk  with many kingdoms and great cities. They split from the serpents and dragons and survived the end of the monster age. They are a proud civilized people. They have domestic dinosaurs and worship a few naga and dragons still in the country areas still. Most worship a reptilian dynasty of gods similar to the human ones. Tribal varieties vary much in skin colour and skull shape. Some have dorsal crests and horns or frill necks. These features speak volumes to lizard folk about ancestry and homeland.

Necromancer Kings
Kingdoms ruled by ancient liches and immortal necromancers in the north. Villages are a parody human ones with undead farmers working with their undead animals. Many living serve too dreaming of being made into superior undead. While to the south a new heretical school of flesh carnomancy magic has taken hold from the world of Xor. Now necromancers fight each other. The flesh wizards seek to use living matter as tools. The Death templars nearby as comparison were more theocratic while the necromancer kings were wizards.
