On the coast of the Rhynelands, there is a expanse of land that stands as a bastion against the sea. Proud ships glide across the waters, bearing the hammer on gold that symbolizes the coast that they call home. The salty air wafts inward, towards the mountains that guard its eastern border. And at the tip of the county sits a city that many call the Jewel of the Golden Coast: Overock.
The County is run with the air of a democratic-autocracy. The Mayor of Overock is by nature of the charter of the County, also the Count of the Golden Coast. They who control the Jewel, controls the Coast. While the rule of law from Lord Overock (whoever they may be) is final, the Lord takes input from the mayors of the Coast and also from the Masters and Mistresses who council them in the city of Overock and serve as liege lords over the land.
Taxes shall be fair, and profits will flow. To become a member of the Golden Coast is to enter into the Overock Family. And for an Elyrian there is no greater persuit, except perhaps to become a King...
The Golden Coast is looking for settlers and citizens. Brave Elyrians who would seek their fortunes in her steppes and to rule the waves upon her ships. Traders, Craftsmen, Dungeoneers, Adventurers, Peddlers, Storytellers, and Thieves: There is room for all in the Golden Coast. The hand of friendship extends to you, welcoming you to the Family.
Each city in the Golden Coast is as beautiful as they are varied. From the rich and fertile farmlands of Crowfire, to the sister port city of Whiteraven the land is ripe for profits and adventure. Any who call the coast home are protected by her charters, and beholden to her treaties. There is no safer place in the Rhynelands.
The City of Overock stands as a testament to trade and progress. Her shimmering ships patrol the bay on which she stands, and the port for which she is know is ever bustling. The smells of the Nicodemus Bazaar waft in the breeze, as children play in Gin John's Landing. Here sits Overock Manor, where laws for the County are made, and the headquarters of the Overock Trading Company, where gold flows like fine wine. A few hours in the city, and it is easy to understand why it is known as the Jewel of the Golden Coast

A small farming community, under the protectorate of the City of Overock. It borders Stormlost, and is therefore a pivotal trade town between the Golden Coast and their eastern allies.
Seated at the heart of the Golden Coast, Gartden encompasses all that is the soul of the coast. A hamlet whose primary economy is founded on hunting, it is supplemented by the trade from Winia and Overock, and a has a standard outpost for the Overock Trading Company.
Sitting on the banks of the sea, Winia glows with the ember of prosperity and hope. The smallest of the three coastal cities, she stands with defiance against the ocean spray, ready to take on any who would challenge the Coast. Despite the salt in the air and the spray on her lips, Winia's primary profession is dryland farming, and from her is fed the Golden Coast.
The Sister City of Overock, Whiteraven stands on the southern tip of the Coast, and she shines as brightly as the Jewel. Whiteraven excels in farming and is a beacon of trade to the south. She shares the sea and a border with Greenpole Fair, the County of the noble Dante Rhyne, and she is better for it.
The land of the Coast is vast and numbers many different organizations and guilds that call it home. Below stand those that have sworn fealty to, or originate from, the Golden Coast
