|Introduction=Orrakar~~, the Domain of Canyons,~~ is a vast land of deep chasms, labyrinthine valleys, and towering cliffs, shaped over millennia by the patient forces of wind, water, and time. A place of both endurance and transformation, Orrakar stands as a testament to the inevitability of erosion, proving that even the strongest stone will yield to the persistence of the elements.

A place of both endurance and transformation, Orrakar stands as a testament to the inevitability of erosion, proving that even the strongest stone will yield to the persistence of the elements.

Orrakar’s transformation is slow, deliberate, and inevitable, a world where great passages are carved through stone, and the echoes of time linger in the weathered walls of the canyons. The realm is a domain of patience and change, ruled by the [[ascendant spirit]] of erosion, Varethor, whose presence is felt in every wind-sculpted ridge and every river-worn passage.

|History=~~Orrakar is as ancient as the first crumbling rock, shaped long before the mountains~~ of ~~[[Adaris]] rose and fell. While some realms were forged in fire, chaos, or divine will,~~ Orrakar ~~was carved by the unyielding hands of time.~~

~~The Silent Sculptor – It is said that Varethor, the spirit of erosion, was not born in fire or fury but awoke with the first crumbling of stone, a being of patience and inevitability.~~

Orrakar is a land of deep canyons, sheer cliffs, and towering mesas, its terrain shaped by winds, rivers, and the slow march of erosion. The land is fractured and winding, with hidden valleys, labyrinthine passageways, and rock formations sculpted into impossible shapes.

~~The Vanishing Paths – Orrakar never remains the same—canyons widen, cliffs collapse, and rivers shift their course, ensuring that no path lasts forever.~~

~~The beings of Orrakar, whether native or transient, must adapt or be left behind, for nothing remains unchanged in the face of time’s steady hand.~~

===Notable Features===

*The Endless Rift – A canyon so deep that its bottom is rarely touched by sunlight, with walls that bear the etched history of ages long past.

*The Hollowed Pillars – Towering stone spires, sculpted over millennia by the ceaseless winds, standing as monuments to time itself.

*The Serpent’s Maw – A twisting gorge, said to shift subtly each year, ensuring that no traveler ever walks the same path twice.

*The Shattered Flats – A landscape of collapsed rock and fragmented plateaus, where the land itself crumbles away, revealing ancient fossils and forgotten relics.

~~Despite its harsh, arid nature, Orrakar’s hidden ravines and seasonal rivers sustain life, creating pockets of lush, unexpected beauty in the midst of desolation.~~

|Climate=Orrakar is a land of extreme conditions, where temperature, wind, and water work together to shape the ever-changing landscape.

Survival in Orrakar demands adaptation, as the land is constantly being worn away, reshaped, and reformed.

|Flora and Fauna=Despite its harsh conditions, Orrakar is home to resilient life that has adapted to the shifting land and relentless erosion.
