Osirion

Osirion is a fictional continent within the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game setting of Golarion. It is situated in the northeastern part of the Inner Sea region, known for its ancient history, diverse cultures, and powerful magic. The continent is characterized by vast deserts, lush river valleys, and towering mountain ranges.

The history of Osirion is deeply rooted in ancient civilizations, most notably the Osirian Empire, which once dominated the region. This empire, inspired by ancient Egypt, left behind a rich legacy of monumental architecture, arcane knowledge, and complex religious practices. Ruins of their once-great cities and tombs are scattered across the land, often holding both treasures and dangers.

Modern Osirion is a patchwork of kingdoms, city-states, and nomadic tribes. The dominant political entity is the Kingdom of Taldor, which has a significant presence and influence in the western parts of the continent. However, many independent nations and factions exist, each with their own agendas and cultural identities. The desert regions are home to resilient nomadic peoples who have adapted to the harsh environment.

Magic is a significant force in Osirion, with ancient magical traditions and powerful artifacts rumored to be hidden within its tombs and ruins. The continent is also a crossroads of trade and cultural exchange, attracting merchants, adventurers, and scholars from across Golarion. The presence of ancient curses, powerful undead, and the lingering influence of forgotten gods make Osirion a perilous yet alluring land.
