Sitting South-East of Alba, Shuth is a harsh land of deserts and jungles. It is generally divided into two realms: the Great Road, which leads from Alba to the Shadowsea and on which every major city is positioned; and Utter Shuth, the deserts and jungles off the beaten path. Utter Shuth is utterly dangerous; between cultists, lethal fauna, and the old gods said to dwell beneath the earth there.

Shuthans range from pale-skinned to a medium brown in skin tone. Most are bi-lingual, being fluent in both True Common and Shuthan. Airy robes and turbans are a necessity in the oppressive heat. While firearms are common, the scimitar is still a cultural staple-weapon.

Shuthans have strong Clerical and Paladin traditions, but few Druids. Rangers serving as desert guides are common, however.

===== History =====

It's said that, long ago, a group of Shuthan nomads traveled across the Ohm Basin to found the empire of Al-Qashqa.
