A Regio, or "realm" is the area of infuence surrounding a Node. The strength of the node determines how far it's Regio reaches, which might be only a few feet or many miles. The Ithilrhi word for realm is "Regio", the Baal word is "Nabzu", and most Southmarens call them "Warrens".
A Regio extends into both Ambar and the Astral, affecting the surrounding landscapes--potentially in strange and powerful ways. The influence is specific to the characteristics of the Node--for example the Baal dragon shrines project auras of draconic power.
A chain of similarly aligned Nodes in proximity combine to create a larger, combined Regio, or "Warren". Movement on ley lines berween Nodes within the Regio never leaves the Regio, making travel a more predictable affair. The Eldar and their foes sought to create vast Regios, and fought many wars for control over the Nodes and Ley Lines. Long ago the Alu built a vast Warren stretching from Ealde through Wyrmskrol and across The Teeth. After the Breaking the Baal and the Wyrms struggled for control of the lands around the Dragon Sea. In the present age most of the great Eldar Regios have fallen and many have been usurped by wizards or slipped into the coiled grasp of the Kha'din.
