Fasra is the seat of the Janis Duchy in Rakore, as well as the West Plains barony. Founded in late 1329, the fortress and its surrounding town sit at the juncture of the Eastern and Western Cold Rivers in the Janis Plains.

The fortress is still under construction as of 1331 Avard, with the main keep and one tower completed, but walls and other facilities still under construction. The town of a thousand people has its own inn catering mainly to merchants, known as the Spinning Leaf. The town also has its own smithy, an armory for the garrison, and a horse-training ranch.

The town's temple is dedicated to Yatindar, and is run by the Vicar Colbert James. In the early winter of 1331, Vicar John Culpepper – a retired protector paladin turned priest – was killed by a necromancer posing as the duchy's mage. Vicar John had made the a grave mistake in his unconditional support of the mages, forgetting that mages were both good and evil, like any other men. To prevent such a similar event from occurring, Vicar Colbert was sent to Fasra from Chasadan. Vicar Colbert has a deep-seated hatred of the mages, despite his defection from the Inquisition. There are those that believe him still heavily connected to Kur Maeth and the Holy City of Karmen. Despite those beliefs, Duke Talon feels Vicar Colbert is the best priest to run the temple, and keep an eye on the mages of the duchy.

Near the temple and the keep is the mage's tower, commonly called Master Heinz's tower.
