Spire

Description
Desert country due to the mountains. Known for the "Dune Dash" an annual event where citizens race Titanis', 8ft tall birds with large beaks and talons for slashing. Females are brown/tan and males are colourful, they are fast and take years to be trained and are quite valuable. The Females are usually bred to be racers, and the males tend to be pack animals. Even poor people have Titanis's, but those tend to be of lower quality.

Niddala used to be comprsed of two City states that were almost constantly at war with each other (fensted and headstone) until the reckoning happened and the gimballians decided that the populations of each city state was too low to have them be seperate and so they were bundeled together.

Geography
Almost entirely desert except for the far south where the magics of Spire have transformed the area completely, and in the far north where the tough grasses grow until they slowly transition into the soft grasses of Gateway.

General Culture
Headstone citizens make fun of fensted for being prissy and fensted think headstone is full of renegades (it is a fronteir town) but they dislike when foreigners make fun of the other town. They are in the same country after all.

Notes on Magic
Nasnas, creatures that play music to lure in travellers and appear as a man or woman with a scar down the centre of their body. If the traveller is lured in by the Nasnas they try to get the person to touch them (often by pretending to be old and needing help to get up) if this happens or combat is initialised, the Nasnas's split in two revealing themselves to be two sides of a person pretending to be one. If they touch the traveller they must make a dc14 con save, if they fail nothing happens for 1 minute, then the traveller's skin becomes flaked revealing sores underneath, the traveller can not regain any health by magical means and their max hp is half of the normal. This disease is contagious and will spread to other beings the traveller touches. This disease can be removed with a lesser restoration spell cast as a level 3 spell or any disease removing spell of level 3 or higher.
