Completely Neutral
No fights between clans happen in these areas Open Plains
Slicing the continent of [Name here] jaggedly in half, the open plains are the neutral territories of dragonkind. Bordering most of the clan domains, it is here that dragons mingle and meet as their fancies dictate. It is also here that the mysterious Rogues hide.
The plains resemble a sea of grass, stretching as far as the eye can see. Trees dot the perimiter as the plains blend into other territories, but the grasses hold sway. Herds of bison dominate, with smaller mammals in abundance.
Places of interest:
Ladon's Crater - A curious indentation, the crater is a gradual sloping bowl found as the plains give way to the Savannah. During the Spring rains, the bottom fills into a small lake that lasts through the Summer. Regardless of season, the barren earth of the crater walls radiates heat. Stones quarried from the bowl are prized as nest stones by some clans, who claim the stones give off the heat of Ladon, the mystic key in opening the gateway.
--------------------------------------
Crimson Sea:
The sea to the south west. It was the first ocean seen when the dragons came to this world and it was seen at sunset, making it appear as crimson as the sky. There are only tiny, uninhabbited islands in this sea, none of them even worth noting. Since the seas are all nuetral, fights rarely take place here.

Somewhat Neutral
Fights between clans happen occasionally but these areas are mostly neutral Macaw Isle:
To the Northeast of the continent the dragons call home lies a tropical island. Named for the brightly colored birds that flock among the rainforest that blankets the small landmass, Macaw Isle is mostly uninhabited, save for a small contingent of Amphitheres in the jungle and a few other breeds living in the grasslands of the north.
The fauna consists of small tropical animals, with nothing larger than a few herds of wild boar. And of course, a bird-watcher's wet-dream in avians.
The isle is, for the most part, considered a neutral zone, as most of the clans see the island of having little value. The feathered-serpents who call it home, however, disagree and cling to the area as a throw-back to their days of supremacy on Earth as Aztec and Mayan dieties.
Places of Interest:
Community Amphithere Nest - A huge banyan tree in the western portion of the isle. Seriously huge. This tree is ancient enough to have been planted at the dawn of time and taken root five minutes after. The nests are mostly restricted to the inner branches of the tree. The feathered snakes also use the area as a general meeting place. If you're looking for one of the locals, try the nest first. This is the nest mostly for Ampitheres who only live on this isle, since the majority of them live in the Southern Rain Forest.
-------------------------------------------
Amphithere Mountains:
This is the huge mountain range to the north. The Demon's Claw river cuts through its eastern peeks and it reaches a small forest to the west. It was named for its appearance from the sky. The land is labled as nuetral, but there has been many disputs over whose territory it is. The knucklers wish for parts of it because of the Demon's Claw River. The European's have their forest near by and wish for claim to it as well. It has been known to hold parts of the Rogue clan, however.
The mountains are rocky, but only cold at the very tops of their peeks. At their bases are many hills and valleys. Wild horses, mountain sheep, bears, deer, and birds of prey inhabit the area.
Places with the Ampithere Mountains:
>Aquiduct Caverns - Named after the water system used by humans long ago, these are caverns that run through the mountains. Many small rivers and streams run through them, only to open out into the Demon's Claw River.
