Numeria

Numeria is a fictional nation in the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game setting of Golarion. It is a harsh frontier region where magic and technology intermingle, shaped by the impact of a meteor that scattered starship wrecks and alien artifacts across its lands. The most notable feature of Numeria is the remnants of advanced civilizations whose star-metal relics fuel a unique blend of science and sorcery.

Geography and environment: Numeria encompasses varied terrain, including borderlands, rugged hills, and extensive ruins. Its landscape is scattered with crashed ships, salvage yards, and artifact caches that attract scholars, scavengers, and adventurers. In many areas, exposure to star-metal and artifacts presents hazards such as radiation and unpredictable magical effects.

Society and culture: The population forms a mosaic of frontier settlers, nomadic tribes, and technomancers who practice technomancy—the fusion of magic and machinery. A central influence is the Technic League, a powerful cabal of technomancers that seeks to control technology and maintain secrecy. Outside its reach are independent towns, caravans, and various factions with shifting alliances and rivalries.

Economy and technology: Economic activity centers on salvaging starship wreckage, mining star-metal, and trading artifacts. Artisans, engineers, and scribes convert relics into weapons, tools, and devices, while religious and cultural groups interpret technology through diverse belief systems.

In fiction: Numeria appears prominently in Pathfinder materials and adventures, where players encounter its dangerous ruins, enigmatic technologies, and the interplay between magic, science, and frontier justice.
