Founded
over a thousand years ago, the kingdom of Cormyr benefits from an enlightened
monarchy, hard-working citizens, and an advantageous location. Cormyr
is a civilized land surrounded by mountains, forests, and settlements of
evil humanoids. Known for its well-trained military and its active
group of government-sanctioned spellcasters, Cormyr boasts fine food, honest
people, strange mysteries, and abundant contacts with other parts of the
world.
Recently challenged by treacherous noble families, armies of goblins and orcs, famine, a marauding ancient red dragon, and the death of its beloved monarch, Cormyr is now struggling to maintain its holdings. With one of its cities in ruins and great numbers of evil humanoids still roaming the countryside, this nation is in need of resourceful individuals willing to defend the crown and confront its enemies.
