Par Vollen is the homeland of the qunari. It is a tropical island chain, which is covered mostly by rainforest, and located far north of Ferelden beyond Rivain.
Background
Elven lore holds that the humans first arrived to Thedas from Par Vollen. They are thought to have arrived around 4,500 years after the founding of Arlathan, and nearly 2000 years before the official foundation of the Tevinter Imperium.
Par Vollen was occupied by the qunari when they landed there 300 years ago. Almost immediately they went to war with the rest of Thedas. Peace was obtained 150 years later however, but tensions still remain high between the qunari and the rest of Thedas. As a result, most people tend to fear and distrust any qunari with whom they meet. The only known inhabitants of Par Vollen are the qunari. No outsiders are ever permitted to visit its shores.
Trivia
- According to David Gaider, Par Vollen is home to a yet to be encountered race known as the Fex. [1]
