The Phan is a region in the southwest section of Hezeq. Its cities are some of the most technically advanced in the World. There is a fairly uniform Culture in the region that can be characterized as mercantile, technically sophisticated and somewhat xenophobic. The Cities of the Phan built themselves from the ruins of the Old World, and are not welcoming to either arcanists or Corpselanders.
Although the Phan is best known for their advanced cities, large portions of the region remain undeveloped. There are many Old World ruins in the area as well as the ruins of newer cities built and abandoned since the Godfall. Because of this, the Phan is popular with treasure-hunters, explorers and adventurers.
Rural communities dot the landscape. These small towns and villages are predominantly agrarian in nature and insular. However, like their urban cousins, if a traveler has money to spend, she can expect a warmer welcome.
The Cities of the Phan are connected by a web of well-maintained, mostly secure roads. Beyond the metropolitan regions, however, surface travel can become difficult. LTA craft are the most common means of traveling beyond the cities and some of the larger towns have dedicated airfields. The Phan is one of the few regions to have rejected a Luminal Road.
The Cities of the Phan are united by a common language and Culture, but are not politically unified. Each City operates as an independent state. Most have agreements regarding trade and law enforcement with each other, but not all.
