Perigord

Perigord
Perigord County is the territory of Count Lorjas Hawtrey. It is the central county of the kingdom of Callyria, the main trading area and is has so far been neutral toward the confict between the two sides of the civil war. Its main city, Lyrivur, stands on the ruins of an ancient empire that has fallen into dust many centuries ago.



Perigord stretches from the foot of the highest mountain of Callyria, Olad Raithen, to the Khundabar River in the west. The great highway going through the whole kingdom is its border in the south and a mountain range also known as the ‘Giants Bumps’ is the northernmost line of the county. There are three smaller settlements in Perigord. The village of Wythorp with its distinctive tall Watchtower, the farming town Ellon to the west of Lyrivur and the mining camp of Frawold  in the north.

The smaller settlements are managed and lead by outstanding members of the community - owners of businesses, trustworthy long-time residents and others. It is through their management that the outer villages gather their taxes and gain support and protection of the Count. While in theory these people are also members of the Count's court, the court itself is an unofficial gathering of noteworthy citizens of Perigord.

The main religion in Perigord is that of Eraricai, the Goddess of love, beauty and home-making. She has a temple in the District of Light in Lyrivur with shrines to Asheb, Kasdiel and Khera nearby.
