The Plains of Tothen are located on the southwestern shore of Southern Ergoth. They are bordered by Elderwild Wood and Harkun Bay to the east and the Southern Sirrion Sea to the west.
The plains are made up of wide grasslands and rolling hills which are broken up by huge furrows. They are populated by herds of flightless birds called Axe Beaks and Bulettes, also called landsharks, that burrow beneath the earth creating the furrows and making the plains very dangerous to unwary visitors.
Pre-Cataclysm[]
Prior to the Cataclysm the Plains of Tothen were part of the Last Hundred province in the Empire of Ergoth and were home to Windgaard, the provinces capital.
Age of Despair[]
During the Cataclysm the Plains of Tothen were altered when portions of land to the west, including Windgaard, sank into the sea. To the east the plains expanded in some areas where the Elderwild Wood receded.
Age of Mortals[]
After the arrival of the Dragon Overlord Gellidus the climate of the Plains of Tothen cooled as it did across all of Southern Ergoth although the Last Gaard Mountains protect the plains to some degree.
