Sheir Peninsula

The Sheir Peninsula was a peninsula in Lapaliiya in southwest Faerûn. It marked the northeastern border of the realm.

Geography
It was a massive granite outcrop extending westward into the Shining Sea, bordered by cliffs that stood over 20 feet (6 meters) tall. It lay between Ormpur Bay on the north and Sheir Bay in the south.

Inhabitants
Around 1372 DR, the peninsula was dotted with thorps home to local shepherds. Forced to pay exorbitant rents to the Overking of Lapaliiya to use the land, these folk were often poverty-stricken.

The cliff faces, meanwhile, were inhabited by harpies. These creatures preyed on ships at sea, and the shepherds went nowhere near the coast.

On the northern foot stood the city of Ormpur and on the southern foot stood Sheirtalar.
