Alias: The Northern Polar Land
Location: North of Ngorrhal and western Thazvaar (polar continent)
Kela is Geba's vast northern polar continent—the only landmass directly connected to the Uncharted Continent—a frontier of frozen plains, polar shelves, and geothermal vents where the Kelan people thrive with unmatched climbing skills and endurance. Autonomous colonies established in the Era of Late Conquest serve as refuges for ex-warlords, criminals, and outcasts seeking escape from imperial oversight, highlighting Kela's role as a haven of independence amid its harsh landscape. The Kela Maritime Guild specializes in underwater technologies for polar and subsurface operations, powering elite and military gear with Sentinel Division and Joxi Industrial Holdings energy sources. Devolved species like the Neron lurk in geothermal vents, while fossils of the extinct Boretheris Titan dot the plateaus. Ioe Jerhit founded mercenary groups here to escort settlers and hunt fugitives, later coercing engineers to develop Uncharted survival tech in fortified compounds. Kela has very few hubs and no native relays—relying entirely on Ngorrhal's super-massive relay infrastructure. Northern Kela near the Uncharted border is a near-black zone with poor connectivity, avoided by most due to lack of infrastructure and support. Temperatures range from -40°C to -10°C with ice storms and wind tunnels, but Kelan's resilience turns the deadly cold into home, proving skill and grit surpass size in the face of endless frost.
