The nation of Skyreach is a decentralized kingdom situated high within the Ironspine Mountain Range?. The majority of Skyreach Nation is fertile, forested valleys tucked between sheer mountain ranges that boast an impressive number of deep, clear lakes. It resides between 15 degrees and 20 degrees south latitude.
Officially, the capital city of Skyreach Nation is Cloudspire, a city-state of approximately 45,000 citizen of nearly every race built within and around the top of the highest mountain. Cloudspire is dedicated to commerce and travel, something it excels at thanks to its large network of connecting gateways that offer transportation to a wide variety of locations, as well as its central location within the civilized world.

Notes for Game Masters
Skyreach Nation is an open region intended to be shared with and built upon by any GM. If you would like to add something to it, feel free to do so. Nearly anything is fair game, from new shop names and NPCs to whole cities and roadways. Much of the map above is unlabeled on purpose, for the precise reason of allowing others to fill in the blanks.
Guidelines for Running in Skyreach
- Because this is a campaign-wide, shared region, Game Masters are generally not allowed to alter the major structure of the kingdom (ie, blowing up existing cities, killing royalty, introducing major artifacts, etc). All Game Masters should be able to run a game here without needing to worry about what the current state of the nation is.
- Skyreach Nation is generally safe and secure, and is a very homogeneous society where most well-meaning races are equally represented and treated with respect. Adventures in Skyreach should be low level or city-based.
- Cloudspire connects to many places, both physically and magically, and is usually the first connecting point for other regions.
- Cloudspire is big and has a lot of resources. It's a good place for adventurers to pick up new toys or offload existing ones, or to find out information from worldly travelers.
