The Badlands

The Badlands are the former Northern territories of the Kingdom Cara, until in 3,506 AC when The Guardians summoned Hladomor, the Demigod of Famine and opened a portal to the Underworld.

Creation of the Badlands
The Guardians' leader Christoph Heggen traveled to the Northern Territories of Cara. Heggen traveled to an crypt in an unknown location in the region. About a week after he entered the crypt, Hladomor the demigod of Famine arose from the crypt with Heggen. They traveled to a nearby cavern where Hladomor summoned a portal to the Underworld. This portal caused massive damage to the surrounding area, drying up rivers, lakes, and killing most life in what has become the Badlands.

Battle for the Badlands
After the destruction of the land, the Kingdom of Cara sent their legions of soldiers to try to reclaim the lands, cities, towns, and castles of the Badlands, but were slowed by gangs of bandits, hostile survivors, and foreign forces attempting to claim the territory for themselves.
