Gazetteer of Named Places

Every named mountain, river, lake, forest, island, and settlement from the MMB regional gazetteer [MMB-Region], with its type, a short description, and the source tag that work assigns it. Canon entries name a published module; fan entries are community inventions; none means the gazetteer gives no tag. Use the tags to filter for a strictly-canonical game.

Settlements with their own pages: see Realms for Alpha, Oceansend, Leeha, Arcadia, Ironwood, the Arch of Fire, and Two Lakes Vale.

Source tags resolve in Sources. Module tags (CM1-CM4, M1-M5, X11, XL1, AC10, Dungeon #21) are canon; “Almanac” and “PWA” are the almanac line; “fan,” “OldDawg,” “Agathokles,” “JA,” “Gander map,” and “Rogues to Riches” are community material. The whole gazetteer is compiled in [MMB-Region].
