Giorazia Desert

The Giorazia Desert is a massive wasteland east of the Boscizanne Woods. It is from here that all Genasi hail.

History
Giorazia was long ago a massive city that was renowned for impossibly powerful magics based on power-words and spirit-binding. Long before the Kingdom of Etruschia was founded, a massive magical explosion ripped apart the city, and ground it into the fine sand of the sprawling wastes. As the centuries went on, who built the city or even how the city was destoryed were lost to the snads of time. What is known is that whatever destroyed the city left the veil between this plane and the elemental planes thin, and elemental beings often slip through and mingle with travelers and descendants of human-slave survivors, spawing the Genasi peoples.

Culture
The Genasi, or Elemental Peoples, that live in the desert are a nomadic people, and often tribal and xenophobic in nature. Elemental "types" often stick to their own, and war against their opposing typology.
