» Carthridge A once formidable area of stark imperfections and decaying foliage, Carthridge remains as one of the few areas which profited from the presence of man. Varying edible foliages and trees were given the opportunity to flourish with the removal of weeds and barbed vines, while the quintessential babbling brook descends a mountain peak and supplies the terrain with sustenance. Sheer cliffs hide predators and harbor prey while also releasing the occasional stray boulder into Carthridge, though no harm shall come to those who are observant.
» Ukraine A vast plateau stretches for miles, painted varying hues of emerald and gold by the grass plains that dominate the area; though dont be fooled, much of the grass is full of weeds. A thin stream has formed through the middle of the land, originating somewhere from the Mountains. The temperatures are mild, the chilly nights a relief from the day time humidity. Although seeming heavenly and flawless, the plateau takes on an eerie appearance at night from constant waves of fog and only a few trees to interrupt the empty expanse that this land is known for.

» Vladmir Being one of the most exterior regions of The Damascus and thus the first to be infiltrated by enemies, Vladmir sacrifices peace of mind from opponents for peace of mind from the weather. A scarce amount of snow falls here and the land stays comfortably cool year round. With Vladmir being one of the few witnesses to extreme weather, all edible grasses though restricted to specific districts remain sustainable even through winter. A few pine trees have not been stripped from the ground and grow quite well in the sandy terrain, providing the only cover aside from the shadows cast by the cliffs.

» Castin This harem is almost strictly on steep hills which are covered in woodlands and the occasional spots of snow. The water rushing down these slopes often causes trees that are weak or dead to become uprooted and fall - left to decay among their other, flourishing kin. The air here is crisp and grass can be found in the few clearings that are present in these woods. Disastrous rapids run down the steepest of slopes and have created deep ruts in the slope's facade; often found visible when the water sometimes dries up during the dryer months.
» Archer This part of The Forsyth has numerous hills covered in both thorny and non-thorny vines; no doubt a defining reason that the land was mostly untouched by man. The vines have almost completely swallowed the trunks of the trees here but have yet to suffocate them. The atmosphere is pretty neutral with weekly, light thunderstorms to keep the ground presentable with short, stubby grass. The ground is kept nearly dry due to the intake of water by the trees, and a once thriving river now supplies the equines here with just enough to survive its flow somehow disrupted near its source by man.
» Glandim The terrain here is not sandy but is also not firm - good enough to have large plots of grass but the trees here are few and often gnarled. This prairie also has a few large boulders which also provide shade during the heat of the day. Once upon a time area was dotted with holes, homes to families of prairie dogs were poached by the humans. Occasionally one of these critters can be seen creeping around but their population has dwindled to almost none. The only known watering hole has gone stagnant from human use, often forcing the Glandim horses to rely on the rains from Archer, which are luckily quite frequent.

» Ehfton A small sanctuary has been cut out from the valley and the mountains as a provider to the rejected, rebels and the unworthy. Once a small village to some no-name humans, Ehfton now serves has a home and provider to the horses exiled from The Damascus and The Forsyth. The rich soil here was perfect for crops, though they have all died away and now give way to grass and weeds. There are some trees that provide shelter and a small pond - mostly clear - in the heart of Ehfton. The only burden here is the year round heat, often drying up any water sources starting in early Summer.

» Mezier Court The Outcasts managed to claim one more land before the soverien rules of The Damascus and The Forsyth began governing, and so came about Mezier Court. This courtyard was more often a housing unit for soon-to-be war horses in training, and so the area remains dry and dusty with a few shrubs and cacti. The land is hardly worth much to any other group with no water and little grass, but it's better than nothing when you're the exiled.

Lago del Sur The placement of this lake, being deep in the south of Cappadocia, is what gave it the Latin American name, 'Lago del Sur' meaning 'southern lake'. The lake water is extremely warm and actually quite salty from the ocean. Sand and salt brought up by harsh gales during storms has caused the ground to be very loose, although thick in some areas to provide grass and other vegetation. There aren't any trees here due to the loose ground, plus the land is often sacrificed to the ocean water during storms which occasionally provoke large waves onto the land; taking with it some of the topography and whatever creatures are in its way. This land may not yet be claimed.

Ogden Falls Though beautiful and majestic, these azure falls harbor a very bloody and ironic past. Decades ago a battle had broke out here between man and their horses, resulting in the death of beasts on both sides. It was of no displeasure to man who could very easily get more horses and laborers, and the terrain continued to be enjoyed for its cascading water and patchy area's of grass among the small, rocky pebbles. A main source of water for the humans of Cappadocia, the fall remains clean and abundant.

Dunstan Copse Named mainly after the Anglo-Saxon term 'Dunstan' meaning 'dark stone', much of this territory is desert-like with dark hued rocks littering the ground. Temperatures remain cool and constant throughout the year, with the loose sedimentary terrain soaking in the heat of the sun and providing warmth for any inhabitants during the night. Within this desolate moorland is a randomly placed cluster of gnarled trees, providing shelter and grass. Storms occur here every few days and often cause flooding throughout the land - excluding the grove of trees and are the only source of water. The ground is thirsty however, so puddles and streams are quickly soaked up.

Meadow of Balfour This is an ideal grazing meadow under the circumstances and is aptly named after the characteristic. Balfour, means 'grazing land', does not get any less or more rain than the others, but the area is recuperating faster than most others. For the most part there is always grass here though often in patches, and the grass always gives way to the heat during the drier months when rain is not so plentiful. The creeks here have either dried up or gone stagnant, with one or two that are still drinkable.

Season: Spring
Ideal for birthing
No region currently experiencing problems.
Cappadocia has few resources still available to those horses managing to make a comeback. The water sources are stagnant if not drained and edible vegetation is restricted and scarce. Old shacks, carts, corrals, weapons, armor and other remnants of man's presence seem to darken the land. Few areas of Cappadocia are habitable, which has caused the land to be divided into three seperate regions - The Damascus, The Forsyth and The Outcasts. Considering nearly every horse can now trace its ancestory to some sort of war horse, the battle is now over power and land. Outsiders 'pick their poison' based on which region they think will be able to survive, but as herds grow in each region, the necessity for more food, water and more hospitable lands grows with it.
