Ridge
I disdain all glittering gold
The world is a vast place filled with jungles, deserts, wetlands and built up cities. The main ones are known as:
Tika:
A large jungle filled with all creatures big and small. They have viscous teeth and poisoned skins but some are also small and fluffy with cute button noses. Yet the most interesting thing about Tika is that only tribal groups live here. Using the trees as posts, they have learned that above the ground is safer than tracking through it. It's a place unexplored by the modern person with jewels and secrets that are in wait to be explored!Limre;
This vast place is covered in sand, temples and artifacts hidden beneath the harsh terrain of heat and storms. There is little to no life here except for the odd oasis and reptiles that can sustain themselves. Yet the rumors of magic emitting from beneath the sand is a mystery, people have ventured to this place but they have never returned to speak of there adventure.Simtota;
The great city of everyone and everything. Building tall and wide are here lit by the coming and going of traders and the citizens that live there. Its the best place to hear the rumors of new things that are popping up in the world but also of old and timing things that have never been discovered, will you hear something new?The Great Shrill Sea;
Large blue waves and enormous fish are swimming down here. Many travellers use large ships that are unmoved by the goings on below the shimmering surface, but what is causing these fish to explode into life. Recently they have been attacking anything that has crossed there path and the waves have been engulfing weary travellers and traders.Giwan;
The tall and snowy mountains are most known for the seemingly endless supply of iron and other minerals. Due to the harsh conditions however the only kind of people that have seemed suitable are dwarfs. They have adapted there ways and have worked out the best ways to live there whilst also not falling flat.
This world it full of more than one person. The races are vast and completely unusal but some are also rather ordinary. It's the most amazing thing to witness them all getting along but can also be the most terrifying experience.
(These are only example, feel free to be creative! Make sure to give them a name and they will be added to the lore here)
Humans:
The ordinary human is nothing different, they are able to use magic to some limit but they are the best at traveling and navigating across the world. Were-people:
Unforuntaly for these people they have been brought into a long line of anscestors who contain the curse. Whether this make them of wolf, of cat or of any other creature. Being able to control their curse takes years of practice and each time of a transformation is a gruelling and painful experience that can often be calmed by medication. The Vashia:
These people are both human and of animal kind. Over the whole time of their evolution, the animals they now represent have died out and they are the new species. They reign from cats, to birds to fish in the sea. All of who require special needs such as fish types needing constant supply of water to birds needing the constantly clean their feathers.The Foln (by The Shining Man )
The Foln are a human like species, only difference being they distinctively have yellow shaded pupils. The Foln originally were a primitive tribe near the edges of Tika. They say, they are the favorite creations of their God, Ados (the sun). Because of that they say their God gifted them with the gift of reincarnation. Just as the Sun rises everyday and falls every night. So do the Foln through life and death, the rise and fall.
Their reincarnation is thanks to a small red and gold jewelry at the base of their skull. When a Foln dies the jewel drops and buries itself in the ground. After some time the Foln who died can rise. First they appear as just their blood vessels, growing amber and warm as first light. Then the rest of the body forms around it.
Their reincarnation is truly a gift, but it doesn't mean the whole immortal. A Foln can die if their jewel ever gets damaged. If their jewel is cracked in battle, or accident. The jewel won’t settle properly therefore never being reborn. Or if a jewel never makes it to the ground, if a opposing warrior took the gem as a trophy, that Foln will never be born. Because of the risk the Foln often hide their jewel. Making certain it will be exceptionally preserved.
Foln idolize the Sun as their mother and life giver. In their culture they highly valued things like time, life, purity, renewal, longevity, fire and transformation. It goes without saying the Foln are highly skilled in many things, having so long to live and train. There are few who can match Foln in swordsmanship, or knowledge, thanks to literal lifetimes of practice. In the end the Foln are still cautious and prudent to others, most likely due to extended lifespans.
Magic has been a blessing and a curse in this world. It has devastated everyone in more than one way or another whether that be the occasional tyrant or curses apron a person. Magic is not taught, it can not be learnt and comes naturally and only at one point in their life. They can either be three years old or fifty when they find out if they have the ability.
There are many types of magic that ranges from, fire, shielding, water, transforming and death. Each is set to one person and they can not wield more than one at a time. Each can be used for different reason but each takes many years to master.
The use of magic strains the very soul of the person, if they cast to much of one thing, that could be the end of them entirely. Small uses cause fatigue or possibly a head ache, but over time each person slowly withers away with the strain they have been doing.
This crew has been called many names and have been told by many people, but the 'Leader' of the true people call them family.
For generations her family have lead groups of people to the wonders of the world. Discovering jewels and destroying evil with good intent. Currently the Leader of this group is Silva Knocks. She and her merry band of people have been together for years but now looking for new recruits she waits in for those who have the heart to come forth and sign there name on the dotted line!
