(location) Himar
HAI-mahr
Map of Himar Also known as the "Himar Territories". Sometimes confused with the region of Himaat, which has sometimes been supposed to be part of the "Himar Territories" in ancient times - a notion that still shows up at times in the present.

Himar is a largely forested and partially mountainous region located in the middle of the continent of Ai, north of Himaat and south of the nations of Nordika. Tizbar borders it on the east, while the Seaborne Reach is adjacent, to the west. To the northeast is the Sea of Ice, a large glacier, and smaller glaciers feed its rivers. (Himar represents extremes of climate, as it is possible to go from glacier to desert in a walking journey while going across it.)

The capitol of Himar is New Elamoore, a settlement located close to the Red Cliffs - a large red plateau formed of Abaddonian earth transplanted to Sinai when the "Boomer" was dropped by Babel on the city of Elamoore. Due to the devastation wrought by this ordeal, Himar has fallen under the influence of the Khattan Emirate, and is now part of the Emir's considerable empire.

Himar is frequently underneath or close to the path of the movements of the sky island of Rephidim, and therefore has frequent dealings with it. There is no particular "dominant species" in Himar, as a wide number of species can be found there, especially in the vicinity of Elamoore.

Most associated with Himar are Himarian Jupani (Jupani, Himarian), also known as "Feral Jupani". There are also some fauna associated with Himar, such as the gooshurm and the graker, but non-anthropomorphic "Terran" type animals are fairly common in the wilderness areas here.
