Faerûn

Faerun is a fictional continent and the primary setting of the Dungeons & Dragons world of the Forgotten Realms. Baldur's Gate 3 and its predecessors take place on Faerun, mostly near or inside the city of Baldur's Gate; the game opens with the protagonist steering the damaged nautiloid to Faerun, where it crashes. Its organizations include the Lords' Alliance, a council of knights serving the northern cities, the Seven Sisters, the Fire Knives and Xanathar's Guild of Waterdeep, and its Underdark holds the drow city of Menzoberranzan and duergar cities such as Gracklstugh.
