Droon is one of the coastal nations of Southern Garund, beyond the Inner Sea region. It is generally considered to be one of the region's two most powerful nations alongside Holomog to its north. The land consists mainly of swampy river deltas,1 is ruled by dinosaur-riding lizardfolk,12 and is the center of iruxi culture.3

The nation shares its name with the most common trade language of southern Garund, Drooni.45

Economy

Droon exports dinosaur leather as part of the Antarkos Sweep trade route.6 In Kibwe, iruxi of Droon trade rare plant seeds in exchange for uncut diamonds.7

Inhabitants

Iruxi interact most frequently with Droon's dinosaurs. Nobles settle feuds by participating in ceratosaur duels, sauropod caravan trains help transport goods across extremely difficult terrain, and thieves are aided by their whistling velociraptor lookouts.8

Religion

Grandmother Spider is one of the main deities worshiped in Droon.9 Though the Night Heralds are also active in the area, most people of Droon would rather see them fully removed and consider them to be a shameful burden of their past.10

Lixiriltha also has a small cult operating in secrecy here.11
