'''Location:''' Bordered on the north by the Deshret Mountains, the main river that runs south through the region is called the Lioness River. Their region is bordered on the west by the Taraz River. The northern part of the region has some sparse grassland. Everything else not immediately near a river is desert, or scrub land, called by the inhabitant the Great Sea of Sand. Great Sea of Sand is considered by most to be the southern extreme of the known world, although the Jheramen claim to have crossed the Great Sea of Sand on their way to the Jhera region. Foreigners consider Jhera to be sunny, hot, and dusty.


'''People and Culture:''' The Jhera people, called the Jheramen, are not native to the current region in which they have settled. They actually were nomads from a land far away, and have only settled in what is now called the Jhera region, in the last few hundred years, after leaving their homeland and travelling through the desert. The Jhera people take their name from one of their deities, specifically their desert god, as they travelled extensively in the desert as they travelled to the current Jhera region. The male populace tends to be around 5’ 9” in height, and the females around 5’ 6” on average. Their skin colour is light brown, and hair sandy brown or more often black. Eye colour is blue, hazel or green. Facial features include epicanthic folds, high cheekbones, and aquiline noses.

They use a stringed instrument, called the Dombra for most of their music. Travelling musicians and bards who sing historical accounts of the Jheramen journey are common in the culture, as well as festivals with folk dancing. Other cultural values include respect to elders and hospitality to strangers.
