Corondor is a large island (or small continent) on Dominaria just north of Jamuraa, bordered by the Golthonor Sea.^[1] Many prerevisionist stories took place on Corondor. It was the setting of the Planeswalker War.

Description

A tremendous mountain chain called The Spine runs down the center of Corondor, and roughly divides it into three named lands: Stonehaven to the west, Casindral to the south, and Golthonor to the east. In the north lie the Northern Ice Wastes. It lies two thousand miles north of Jamuraa and a few thousand miles to the east of the Domains.^[2]

History

The ancient kingdom of Corondor was called the Iron Kingdom.

The planeswalker Ravidel used an artifact known as the Mox Beacon to lure other planeswalkers to Corondor. He trapped them and forced them to battle until they were weak enough to be killed individually, in an event known as the Planeswalker War. There were six planeswalkers: three Conquerors - Leshrac, Tevesh Szat and Geyadrone Dihada (who wanted to take over Corondor for themselves) - and three Defenders - Jared Carthalion, Kristina of the Woods and Sandruu, who defended the land from the Conquerors. In the wake of that war, Corondor has fell on hard times for centuries.^[2] Corondor was also the birthplace of the family of Carth, and was plagued by Geyadrone Dihada in the time before the Brothers' War on Terisiare. It was the location of the Battle of Aster Fall, the birthplace of Jared Carthalion, and was also the homeland of the wizard Mangara.

Around the time of New Phyrexia's Invasion of the Multiverse, the island fell back under the control of Geyadrone Dihada, who hoped to lure Jared Carthalion into a conflict that could bring Dakkon Blackblade into her grasp.^[3]
