While the rest of Krynn battles savage dragons and dark gods, one civilization is locked in a relentless war against the rising ocean itself. Meet the People of Baltch. Once the premier master architects of the legendary Aurim Empire, the Cataclysm physically sank their homelands right to sea level. To survive devastating hurricanes, they engineered the Seawall—a massive island-enclosing network of dikes, breakwaters, and flood funnels. But keeping it standing requires flawless discipline. They traded personal freedom for survival. Every citizen is a registered number, and changing jobs or moving requires a notarized magical permit. Guided by an elite class of Engineer-Lords and Divination Wizards, they built a hyper-advanced navy, becoming the vital merchant link connecting the entire continent. A colorful, clockwork society surviving on the edge of the world. Watch our full breakdown of Baltch right now!
