The northern portion of the Orc's Head Peninsula features three distinct 
areas: forested Jibar£, where the ecologically-minded, monkey phanatons 
dwell; the outback land of Wallara, home to the mystical chameleon men 
known as wallaras; and the Colony of the Horn, an outpost and penal 
colony of Texeira, located on a sandy arm that juts out into Trident Bay.

Orc's Head profiles several new character races. Phanatons are small 
monkeylike creatures who act as defenders of the forest.

Wallaras know little about raising children, so people of other races are 
never raised in wallara society; any children they might find are 
returned to their homes or given to the phanatons of Jibar£ to raise.

   The land of Wallara is presently at peace. Other than the
Herathians, Wallara has two neighbors: the gator men of Gurr'ash at
the northeastern end of the outback, and the phanaton people at the
western edge. The phanatons are friendly and some trade exists between
the two races - the wallaras trade opals, quartz stones, emu eggs, giant 
termite larvae, and crocodile skins for phanaton goods.

   Ankesh regularly sees raids from Jibar£ phanatons. Hills and heavy 
forest present a difficult environment for Nimmurian troops, especially 
their war chariots. Phanatons are thought to be no more than primitive 
forest barbarians that present little danger to Nimmur.

   The ruler of Suneveh has recently acquired medicine that should negate 
the effects of killer flies on the Wind Flats. Soon, settlers will be 
sent to support a major northern territorial expansion. This, so the 
manscorpions believe, should allow them to flank the pesky phanatons and 
ease their takeover of the prime forest lands of Jibar£.

   In the last decade or so they have fought actions against the orcs of 
the Dark Jungle and even attacked the Jibar£ phanatons briefly before 
being driven out - their inexperience in forest and jungle fighting 
defeated them.

Bears and wild cats have been encountered along with wolves in the more 
northerly woods and foothills, and raids from phanatons seeking to keep 
their borders safe from encroaching manscorpions are an occasional 
threat.

   Most ee'aar have had little contact with races native to the Savage 
Coast, so they have no preconceived notions or pronounced racial 
preferences. They are friendly with enduks,who also now live on the Arm 
of the Immortals. They tend to like phanatons and wallara and pity the 
wingless elves and half-elves.

   Rocky desert and hills known as the Forbidden Highlands form a partial 
barrier between Western Herath and the lands of Wallara and Jibar£.

   Presently, the manscorpions are quiescent, but war may come again any 
time. They are unnerved at the presence of enduks and ee'aar in Um-Shedu 
but have thus far been unable to come up with a strategy for retaking the 
city. They are planning ways in which they might take the Vilaverdan 
trading post for their own and they wish to expand into Jibar£. For now, 
however, they have their hands full keeping their borders safe and their 
dominion leaders away from each other's throats.
