Moonsea

Moonsea

The Moonsea is a region in north Faerûn. The region is dominated by the large titular sea that is connected to the Sea of Fallen Stars to the south by the River Lis. The shoreline is a wild, frontier area that is home to several city states dominated by despots. The region does not have a capital. The Moonsea is not necessarily a safe place to live and its settlers are driven and independent as a result.
