The fire giant kingdom of Kragnaroth is located in the Mindspin Mountains, east of Varisia. Its current ruler is King Orynox Marchelin, a fierce and ruthless warlord who has plans to expand Kragnaroth across the Mindspin Mountains both south and east. Orynox's latest queen is Hregana and he seems to be especially preoccupied by her.1 He has been married to her longer than his previous five wives combined.23

Outsiders would be very confused by the giants referring to this place as a "kingdom", as it is not much bigger than a large city that spans about 15 square miles.2 It consists of three towers arranged around a valley that house about 250 fire giants, with hundreds of smaller humanoid slaves who serve as farmers and in forges.3

History

The fire giants were first pushed into the mountains from their original homes in the valleys of Belkzen after being defeated by the orcs in what would be called the First Battle.4

The fire giant Orynox Marchelin inherited the crown of Kragnaroth from his father in 4631 AR.25
