by Jay "Lord Gosumba" Scott

Campaigning within The Principality of Ulek can lead to multiple types of adventures, including combative, investigative, discovery, or political. This area allows for adventuring opportunities in a realm based in a Demi-human culture; in this case, Dwarves of the Flanaess. The lands in total of the Principality will actually vary depending on the timeframe chosen to adventure (pre-Greyhawk Wars, post-Greyhawk Wars, and alternate timelines). In addition, the realm borders very active, dangerous lands, and also holds the possibilities of sea based campaigning from its ports. The Principality of Ulek is home to Dwarves, Gnomes, Halflings, and Humans which allows for further specific campaigning in this extremely active area of the Sheldomar Valley.
