Lustria is a land far to the west, roughly associated with South America. It was the home to the Old Ones as it fit with their metabolism much better than anywhere else in the world. He they prospered and built great cities and guided the rest of the life on the planet.

The Old Ones were not the only ones to arrive through the dimensional portal at the north pole. They also brought their slaves with them, the Slann. They are the current enhabitants of the steamy jungles of Lustria, served by their own slaves, Skinks and Saurus. It is unclear whether they brought the Saurus with them through the portal or whether they found them in Lustria, but they still enhabit the region. The Saurus are the fighters of the Lizardmen armies while the Skinks are the intelligent, physically adaptable members of the Lizardmen. Also, the Kroxigors were made as beasts of burden and other flying creatures were developed to aid communication. Also Cold Ones were developed to carry Skinks.

The lands are covered in Lizard gold, drawing many people to try to steal a fortune, but the riches are guarded violently. Certainly many explorers haven't returned from expeditions to get wealthy quick.

To the north of Lustria is the land of the Dark Elves and High Elves to the north east. Lustria has since been the centre of a campaign called Conquest of the New World where roving bands of Old Worlders have gone in an attempt to make extreme riches from the lizards.
