At the far reaches of human exploration lie the Borderlands.
Humans, ever expanding their domain, trek into the lands of the old races.
This is where they find both wonders and creatures, rare and dangerous.
Humans have discovered the ancient homelands wherein live the Dwarf, Elf and Half-Ling.
They have encountered Orcs, Goblins, Beastmen and the Dark Elves.
So far, the Human settlers have learned to live peaceably with the friendlier races.
Conflict still rages however with the enemies of mankind, Dwarf and Elf alike.
Widespread towns linked through a common bond of trade and kinship strive to survive and flourish.
The City of Burridam lies in the farthest province of the Empire.
All lands beyond it's walls are the wilds of the Borderland.
