So, after doing a lot of reading I still haven't been able to pick a place where my character is from. I could use some help from someone who is more familiar with the setting. I am looking to have had my character involved in war at some point in the last hundred years or so, and having a history of living in a volcanic area. The most recent Forgotten Realms books I read had a lot of adventure on the Sword Coast which sound like the chaotic sort of atmosphere that suits my character but I'm just a little...stuck. XD

Edit: Sorry for the delay. I'm not chickening out or anything.
