The Pomarj:

• Ruler: His Most Ferocious Majesty, the Despot Turrosh Mak
• Capital: Stoneheim (pop. 5,200)
• Population: 90,000 (80% humanoids)
• Races: Suel, Oeridian
• Demi-humans: None
• Humanoids: Orcs (15,000), Goblins (10,000), others
• Resources: silver, electrum, gold, low-quality gems

This rich peninsula was originally a collection of small states governed by the Prince of Ulek, but the local nobles drove out the Uleks and governed themselves until the early sixth century. As forces from Ulek, Veluna, and the demihumans of the Kron Hills combined to drive vast tribes of orcs and goblins out of the Lortmil mountains, the humanoids fled south and east, easily overrunning the lazy and disorganized human inhabitants and securing their strongholds.

Certainly, a number of wicked humans allied with the invaders, and mercenaries were brought with gold from the Stoneheim mines and moonstones from the Drachensgrab hills. For a time, the human bandits were the rulers here, but with the ascendance of Turrosh Mak shortly before the war, this changed. Turrosh, a half-orc warrior, united the humanoids and made swift strikes to annex the eastern half of the Principality of Ulek and the southern half of the old Wild Coast lands.

At present, Turrosh is able to hold his kingdom together, but further attempts at conquest would bring him up against the united Ulek states, the Wild Coast cities now under Greyhawk's sway, or into Celene, each of which would offer powerful opposition. Yet his bloodthirsty and mostly chaotic humanoids were roused with a cry to "reclaim their birthright," and they look to the Lortmills still. In the interim, by no means do all of the clan leaders wholly respect Turrosh's leadership, and the Pomarj may yet fragment anew.
