The Acentian Hills

Wandering north from the mysterious Witch Woods the traveler sets foot on the smooth green grass of the Acentian Hills. In this place one should tread lightly, as stories tell of suddenly appearing mists, leaving one blind and open for the attacks of the vicious creatures that call these reaches their homes.

The wild boars which one can find all over the place are usually peaceful, but are often seen fighting against each other over what little food growing here and are also known to attack intruders when angered. They are constantly alert, due to the more dangerous creatures lurking about.

However, those are only minor threats if compared to the primitive Taurocs. The small, plump and furry humanoids have dangerous horns on their foreheads and usually wield archaic weapons, attacking anyone they meet. Though not very intelligent, their brutality endangers the unaware and the unprepared.

Threatening in another way are the kobolds rumored to live in a huge cave system near the edge of the hills; mischievous, these beasts use the sudden mists as a cover to lay ambushes upon unwary travelers in order to rob their possessions.
