For the official history of Wild Coast and other information, see also: Main:Wild Coast.
The Wild Coast refers to a large coastal stretch of land on the western shore of Woolly Bay. This land gets its name from the time of the Keoish and Aerdy rulers who could not take control of the region.[1]. The Wild Coast is described as a wild place with independent settlements in a otherwise lawless land.[2]
In the Legends of Greyhawk campaign, set in 576 CY, Wild Coast is an adventure region managed by the Premier Organizer West Coast Adventurers Guild (WCAG), see LoG:Regions/Wild Coast. [3] The first set of adventures premiered October 2025 and were published 29 July 2026 as Saviors of Safeton.[4] The Saviors of Safeton contains an intro-adventure, The Hands of a Healer, The Oath-Bound Blade, and Nine Swords against Chaos and takes the adventurers through large parts of the Wild Coast.
History
[edit source]The Wild Coast has essentially been a collection of six major city-states for most of its history, and has long held a reputation for being untamed.
Those city-states are (from north to south):
- The Territory of Narwell.
- The Holdings of Safeton.
- The Lands of Cantona.
- The State of Fax.
- The Lands of Badwall.
- The Free City of Elredd.
Geography
[edit source]The Wild Coast is bordered by the Suss Forest to the south, the Welkwood to the west, the Gnarley Forest to the north, and Woolly Bay to the east.
Politically the Wild Coast borders the elven kingdom of Celene to the west and the domains of the Free City of Greyhawk to the north-east, the neighbors keep border patrols.
The main settlements used in LoG are, Narwell, Safeton, Cantona, Fax, Badwall, Elredd,[2][5]. Minor settlements as the town Phlandish[6] and villages Zulern and Wyvernen.[7].
Other locations on the Wild Coast include Nol-Daer and Newtemple.
In Dragon Magazine #90, two fiefdoms unmentioned elsewhere are referred to in an article called "Playing the Political Game." These are the domain of Luxor and, sandwiched between Luxor and the Suss Forest, the smaller domain of Karmagia.
Government
[edit source]Each city-state controls its own affairs.
Heraldry
[edit source]Due to the independent nature of the Wild Coast, no single standard has been adopted as representative of the entire region. The various city-states have traditionally carried their own devices:
- Fax: Argent, in pile three lozenges gules
- Narwell: Barry of eight, azure and argent
- Safeton: Vair, a canton paly of six sable and or
Economy
[edit source]Currency
[edit source]Both Fax and Elredd (likely others) mint coins with their own symbols on them; as does the nearby Pomarj.[8]
