  1. The World of Terra(MAJOR WIP!)
  2.  
  3. The world of Terra itself is a "Post-Modern Fantasy" world with a bit of Sci-fi elements to it. This being said there are creatures of ALL kinds in the world. The major land-mass is like a big mix of all kinds of races. Humans, Anthros, Poke'mon, Digimon, Aliens, Monsters, etc. Anything you can think of would likely appear.
  4.  
  5. Magick is a very common sight in the world along with psionics in certain places as well. This is also obvious in the technology of the world which is a combonation of magick and tech, MagiTech. The interactions the world has had with other ones has helped boost the tech and such of Terra.
  6.  
  7. This being said, there are only TWO places in the world that allow for instantaneous travel to different worlds. These places are the city of Azure Coast, located on the western coast of major landmass. And the other place being Isle De Criador, located in the middle of the ocean.
  8. ------------------------------------------------------------------
  9. Deities:
  10. In this universe, there numerous Deities at work around the multi-verse. Each doing their own thing or some interacting with each other with their own goals in mind. There are Four major deities who were the first to come into existence. They are:
  11.  
  12. Mortana: The goddess of Nature and Love, Deer. Mortana is the 'Mother of All Beings', apart from her sisters and her husband, the God of Time. Having given birth to many other deities in her relationship with her husband, Temporus, the God of Time(or Father Time). Mortana herself is sometimes called Mother Nature. She is a kind, caring, and motherly being who wishes nothing but to keep her 'children' happy as much as she can. Seeing all apart from her sisters and husband as her own dear children. Even those she didn't directly bring into being.
  13.  
  14. As far as her powers are concerned, she is a powerful force of nature. Able to bend the elements to her will if she pleases and she possess the power of creation. Able to create things out of nothing if she desires. At the current moment it's not known if there is a limit to her powers.
  15.  
  16. She considers the world of Ferarus her holy grounds, which is home to many sentient feral beings, known as the Ferai, who claim to have been blessed with sentience by Mortana herself and they worship her in a large temple where she frequents on trips to the mortal realm. It's her most holy site in existence.
  17.  
  18. Sordana: The Goddess of Magick and Lust, Dragon. The sister of Mortana, the Goddess of Nature and Love. With a limit-less well of magical power at her disposal, she is without saying, a VERY powerful mage. And of course, the FIRST mage. When it comes to personality, she's very playful, seductive, wise, intelligent, and caring. Especially to her followers, students, or lovers.
  19.  
  20. She likes to frequent the mortal world in the form of a lovely tanned elven woman to mingle with mortals. When not in the mortal plane, she has a personal plane of existence for herself and those she is teaching or invites there for prolonged 'fun'. Her realm resembles that of a magical school with a library of magical tomes. All the while the realm looks like it should house a massive harem.
  21.  
  22. As with any mage, she has a familiar, the FIRST familiar, a draconic-snake being known as Animus. Who is always close to his mistress. He is unique in the way that he can merge with her to form her 'cock', making him both the first familiar and the first snake-cock in existence.
  23.  
  24. Apart from being the creator of magic, she also created a race of magical beings which have spread out into the various planets in VERY many forms. All magic-based and evolved for pleasured. This race is known by many as the 'Lustfuls'. These being magickally created beings with various forms and are a common sight in highly magickal areas.
  25.  
  26. Nexital: The Goddess of Chaos, Varies. A secretive and very manipulative deity. Nexital keeps everything she does and everything about her shrouded in mystery. Even from her brother, sisters, and the other deities out there. Seeming like a playful sort, she's very mischevious and deceitful. Taking on many forms as well, very very rarely showing her true form, if at all.
  27.  
  28. Loving to cause chaos and mayhem wherever she pleases without a care in the world. Just for that reason, she doesn't care, all the chaos she causes is simply fun and fufilling for her. And at times pleasuring for her. And some might think she has limits...however this limit has not been seen as she has even gone so far to wipe out a civilization and a world mostly to spite a being she calls a 'false' god.
  29.  
  30. Her deceiving ways are not limited just to mortals either. She has even tricked her brother, Temporus, into having a child with her by taking on the form of Mortana. A child she intended to raise to be like herself until her brother took the child from her. Enraging her and further fueling her destructive and chaotic urges.
  31.  
  32. Temporus: The God of Time and Space, Turtle. Father time and the husband of Mortana. While he doesn't show himself much to mortals, he's not really a secretive sort, but keeping to himself. Part of his duty as the God of Time and Space is keeping watch over it for threats to the universe as a whole. He has a stern and stubborn personality, taking things seriously when he must, but knows when to relax and enjoy himself when he can. Something his wise and Sordana taught him.
  33.  
  34. He is the father to several other deities in the universe. Two well-known ones are the goddess of Death and and Mischief, Neth. And the god of the Void, Ephraim. The latter being his child with Nexital upon tricking him, and Dartha being his first daughter with Mortana.
  35.  
  36. Dartha: The Goddess of Death and Mischief, Unknown Mammal. The first child born from Mortana and Temporus' relationship. Sadly she was also the first being in the universe to die. Nexital being involved in this as she was jealous her sister had a child before her, ending the young deity's life...or so she thought. After her death, she became the first of the Dead and technically creater of the Afterlife. When see 'awoke' in the empty realm.
  37.  
  38. Many would think this makes her a sad deity, but she's quite the opposite. She's quite happy with how she is because she can still be with her parents and mingle with the world of the living. She looks after the souls of those who die in the universe in a sort of Limbo. Where many souls resides so they can easily visit loved ones if permitted.
  39.  
  40. A natural trickster, Dartha loves to play jokes and tricks on those she meets, or doesn't even know. To her it's all in good fun and she makes sure no one gets hurt. This being said, she does not take death as a joke, she does feel sad when she has to guide someone to the afterlife, but she assures the souls they can have a chance to see and spend time with their families and loved ones again.
  41.  
  42. Harmona: The Sun Goddess, Slime. A prominent deity in the universe as she is the Goddess of the Sun. Harmona is a radiant soul with a kind heart, giving off a aura of warmth at levels she can control. It's not often she appears but she does like to chat when she does. As for her form, she always appears as a curvy slime female who is warm and soft to the touch with stone-like 'clothing- at a couple places on her body to try to be decent. Being the natural beauty as she is, like the rising or setting sun, she likes to keep herself exposed as much as she can. Her body color changing depending on the time of day.
  43. However, like anything fire based, she can be dangerous if provoked or enraged. In this state she gets really flared up, has a blinding light about her and things can catch fire until her mood cools back down and she's back in her normal passive, neutral state. She does her best to not get into this angry state but sometimes she does get pushed too far.
  44.  
  45. Harmona is also the creator of the angelic realm which appears to be a numerous amount of floating islands high up in an endless sky with a beautiful sun that never sets. She also created the universes Angel beings to watch over souls whom might be sent to this 'heaven'.
  46.  
  47. She does have places she is known to frequent from time to time on various worlds. One such spot is inside the volcano on Isle Del Criador. Where she spends time with the magma-dragon spirit, Salamandos. A being she is known to occasionally flirt and such with.
  48.  
  49. As for her abilities it quite simple: Very strong Pyromancer. She is able to control any fire source around her and control the heat in the air around her. Another little trick she can do is absorb the humidity in an area to make it a nice warmth instead of a sweltering heat that some places sometimes have to deal with.
  50.  
  51. Gooma: The mother of all slimes and the Goddess of Food, Drink, and Festivities. She is the patron deity of the people of Repulatoris. Gooma herself is made of thick gooey slime with a honey-like smell and taste. She loves to indulge her own hunger and assist others with their own bouts of hunger. It's also very common knowledge she is the goddess of drink, food, and festivites. As such, there are parties happening ALOT on Repulatoris in her honor or just for fun. Each one with alot of food and drink available and anyone is invited.
  52.  
  53. The goddess herself is a big softy huggable being with a mind-set of a mother who feels her 'children' should be well fed and hydrated. Able to shape-shift or split off part of her bodies into more slimes.
  54. Ephraim: The God of the Void, Unknown/Varies. Not much is known about this powerful god apart from that he was born when Nexital tricked Temporus into bedding her. Giving birth to her first, and only child. Whom she planned to raise like her until Temporus took him away to teach him to use his powers for the good of the universe. Thus leaving him to be raised by his aunts, Mortana and Sordana.
  55.  
  56. At some point in the past, he wound up in a conflict with his mother to tried to forcefully take him back and use his powers to cause more destruction and chaos. Refusing to do so, the young god shattered his powers and mind accross the universe. Leaving Nexital without his full power and making various instances of him around. However rumors are that his core made it's way to Terra and he's reformed in a weaker state with very little recollection of who he is.
  57. Tek'nha: Goddess of Technology, Teknutian. Of all the gods in existence, Tek'nha is the only one to not be born as one. She is a trans-humanist, always wanting to improve herself and her kind through technological means. As such, her kind, Teknutians, are the most advanced race in existence.
  58.  
  59. It took her many many years to finally reach a 'peak' of her controled evolution, and in so doing the was able to transcend to god-hood. Looked up to by the rest of her kind whom she shared her gift of technological evolution with them. The Teknutians now a powerful race of synthetic aliens. No longer having organic flesh but synethetic flesh to replace it.
  60. Various other races caught wind of this and looked up the the Teknutians and Tek'nha for what they were able to achieve by the use of technology. The Teknutians were glad to share with those whom were highly advanced. However....after a event where a whole race was wiped out by the workings of another Diety, Tek'nha and her kind became more secluded as to not share too much technology and have history repeat itself.
  61.  
  62. So, now they are traders and seekers of technology. While their race is smaller in number than others, they are able to sustain themselves perfectly fine. They seek out technologies they might not have and attempt to replicate it. It's known they will also trade certain technologies in exchange for tech of other races. However they refuse to trade tech that would drastically alter the course of a world's technological progression.
  63.  
  64. Tek'nha now is a bit more secluded, like the majority of her kind. Feeling responsible for the extinction of the race they inhabited the world now known as Epitaph. Having shared dimensional technologies which was used against them by the goddess of Chaos, Nexital. Apart from her seclusion, she is a motherly figure to her kind and cares much for them and the well-being of all life as to not see more lives lost like on Epitaph. She is good friends with the god Zeroun, whom she enjoys his company as he too shares her great passion for life and wanting to protect it. Most of the tech she often shares is defensive technologies. It's known the Teknutians also actively seek out more technology lost or scavenged that could be a threat to the well-being of the universe.
  65.  
  66. Zeroun: The God of Wisdom and Thuner, Raichu. One of two patron gods of of the Xyl'Sydian race. And is where the Xyl'sydians get most of their mental quirks from. He is very curious, eccentric, friendly, and knowledgeable. He is commonly seen in the various labs and research areas of the Xyl'sydian cities. A real social butterfly.
  67.  
  68. While most gods sometimes keep to themselves and appear only when they feel necessary, Zeroun appears quite often to mortals but uses a special charm he created to limit himself while in the mortal world. It's used as a way to store up any excess electrical energy that might spark off of him. It does have a limit though, and when it gets too much for the charm to hold, the stored up magical energy starts to make his body swell up from the excess energy. And when he expels this energy back into the world, it causes thunderstorms to occur.
  69.  
  70. Apart from the obvious lightning magic, he is a powerful psychic. And he is able to conjure up various things with his magic. Most commonly, he creates visible psionic-energy tentacles, which stay close to him being one of the two gods who created the tentacled Xyl'Sydian race.
  71. ------------------------------------------------------------------
  72. Azure Coast
  73.  
  74. Located on the southwestern coast, Azure Coast is very popular and major point in the world. It's here where one of two 'gateways' to allow rapid travel to different worlds can happen at a Nexus there. The city is ran by a council dedicated to keep connections with different worlds on friendly terms and keeping out any unwanted trouble makers.
  75.  
  76. The city is also home to MANY of the most powerful magick users in the world and also houses Terra's best Magick Academy, founded by a old elemental spirit named Galagia, and a dragoness named Skya, who have dedicated themselves to training those with the skill and capability of learning magick, in this powerful art.
  77.  
  78. Due to it's history and ties with various worlds, the city has become something of a tourist spot thanks to off-worldly influences and creatures setting up there. Many of these beings going out into the world to try to share what they know with the people of Terra. Helping advance the tech and, in some places, changing the way of living for the better.
  79. ------------------------------------------------------------------
  80. Isle De Criador
  81.  
  82. A island located in the middle of the Indian Ocean, this island's name translates to "Island of the Breeder". Named after the being who owns the island, a hybrid named Gaea, who is part dragon, demon, and Breeder. She is a very powerful dark magick-user, but is by no means evil.
  83.  
  84. Her island is known to be a sort of 'Pleasure Island' because of the resort she has set up on the large island. Where she and her staff cater to MANY forms of lewd activities. She has a wide assortment of exotic and island creatures for guests to 'interact' with and enjoy themselves on. As such, many of her own staff are alien and monster races.
  85.  
  86. It is here were another gateway to outer worlds exsists. The reasoning for this? It is here and in Azure Coast where the only two functional gateways remain. Gaea has hired treasure hunters to seek out other gates and all have come back saying they're all damaged beyond repair. And the pressence of the elemental spirits near the two gateways are helping keep them going.
  87.  
  88. There is a Volcano on the island where a powerful fire spirit named Salamandos resides. His home is usually off-limits for the obvious fact he lives inside of an active Volcano that he stops from erupting just by being there.
  89. ------------------------------------------------------------------
  90. OTHER WORLDS:
  91. Lunorio
  92.  
  93. An arid world with many mountains and deserts, yet VERY rich in valuable resources. The sky is usually red like the setting sun and has a pair of moons in the sky. Home to a race of demons called Asmodians. Despite being demons, they are not an evil race. And have in fact, been very friendly with the people of Terra and were one of the first races to have connected with the world.
  94.  
  95. The Asmodians, as said before, friendly race of demons who are split into various clans on their MASSIVE world. Each clan having different plots of land to mine at for the valuables their world contains. Much of which they either keep for themselves or use as trade with other clans and races. They are all known to be quite the partiers and drinkers, loving to have fun any way they can. Many of them are quite lustful and some clan leaders have harems of men, women, and more.
  96.  
  97. Every so often, a clan or two might butt heads for claims on land and a overseeing clan lead by the High Judicator, Alphadorus, must get involved to help settle the conflict. No blood is ever split or lives taken. The clans decide on what sort of contest they must have for the land in question and the Judicators oversee to make sure everything happens fairly and no foul play. These contests can be virtually anything: Boxing matches, drinking contests, tests of strength, and more.
  98.  
  99. Their level of tech is a bit more advanced than Terra's and is usually very flashy due to how much wealth the Asmodians have to spend on their research and building structures. Many of the cities on the world are either underground or atop various mountains.
  100. The flora and fauna of the world is, as one might expect, demonic in nature, and due to the rabid lustful energies of the Asmodians, are quite lewd or lustful themselves. Many of these various beings are round up to show off to other worlds or even trade. Some of which appearing on Isle De Criador on Terra.
  101. ------------------------------------------------------------------
  102. Solorio
  103.  
  104. A lush green world filled with many majestic creatures, vast waterfalls, and floating islands. This world is home to an angelic race called The Elohim. Their world has both a sun and moon but the sun is out more so and they have relatively short nights. They are a pleasant and friendly race with a bit more control to them compared to their twin world of Lunorio.
  105.  
  106. They are lead by an angelic queen named Juno. Looked up to by her people to guide them on the right path and counting on her to keep their bonds with other worlds strong. A task she has been doing quite well. Trading various goods with the other worlds to keep said bonds strong.
  107.  
  108. The cities on Solorio are settled on the floating islands scattered around the world and are very beautiful to see. Most of their construction using the crystals that sprout around the world which are also used in their highly advanced technologies. They are a very advanced race, who tend to share very little of their technology as to not drastically advance other races.
  109. Like the angels themselves, the creatures and plant-life of the world are very pretty and majestic in nature. Many of the plants are used as trade goods for their beauty and etheral glow they give off.
  110. ------------------------------------------------------------------
  111. Xothis
  112.  
  113. An aquatic world with scattered crags and eroded remains of large mountain ranges with numerous islands dotted around the world. It is home to a psionic race known as the Xyl'Sydians. They have a very alien sky that is usually a lovely green-blue hue. They have a aqua-colored sun.
  114.  
  115. The race is clearly maked by the numerous tentacled appendages they have on their body, and at times, various amount of normal limbs or extra eyes. It's not surprising to see some with 4 arms, 3 eyes, 4 eyes, etc. They are a whimsical and, at times, eccentric race of beings. Known to be masters with many kinds of chemical compounds, and thus are expert potion masters. They are also known for their purification and enrichment skills of various resources. Which they offer these skills as part of trades.
  116.  
  117. The Xyl'Sydians have numerous underwater and coastal cities around the world of Xothis. All of which are connected via warp gates and each city has a hub to connect them to each other. They have a capital city where they have a congress of High Researchers and Technological Advisers who discuss matters relating to their world.
  118.  
  119. The creatures of the world are VERY alien in appearance and usually have tentacles and can breath underwater indefinitely. They are also, in some form, psionic. Be it telekinesis, telepathy, hydrokinetic, and more. An example of such a creature is a local being known as a 'Bubble'. They are common knowledge to the Xyl'Sydians but are usually left alone due to having a habit of infesting a host with tentacles to propagate and spread their kind via the tentacles the multiply in a host, leaving the host body and converging to form a new Bubble elsewhere. The Bubbles themselves are a large fleshy dome about the size of a 9x9 room with a few exterior tentacles and a hallow cavity within it's body to infest a host in. They are very telepathic and use a form of hypnosis to lure in potential hosts.
  120. ------------------------------------------------------------------
  121. Epitaph
  122.  
  123. Much of this world is a mystery, a mystery that some hope to solve but have had very little luck in doing so. This chaotic world was struck by some event that left it in a state of flux. Shifting landscapes and climates adorn this ill-fated world. The only 'stable' thing in it is the one gateway the world has and the platform it's on.
  124. The only thing anyone knows about this world is that under very certain conditions, highly advanced ruins appear filled with technology of a now lost race. Which many have assumed caused the world to be in the state it is and will forever be in. These ruins have been a 'paradise' for treasure seekers looking to get rich off the vast treasures, technology, and knowledge that are lost in the ruins.
  125. Within these ruins are large labs, cities, and libraries lost to the ages. While the only living things on the world are lab experiments, security drones/robots, and highly advanced, but damaged, AIs. The creatures and plant-life are usually a mesh-mash of various other ones, Chimeras.
  126. ------------------------------------------------------------------
  127.  
  128. Beejus
  129.  
  130. A large world twice the size of Terra in a Binary star system. High gravity and home to a large race of dinosaur-like beings called Neosaurians. Where the females are the dominate gender of the species. A world with very few hermaphrodites who are treated with the utmost respect, like rulers.
  131.  
  132. Despite their primitive looking tech, they are advanced space-fairing race. Using stonework in their ship building with mostly Quartz as their main building material for their ships. A type of tech peopled have dubbed 'cavepunk'.
  133.  
  134. The world is a large warm, humid planet with many jungles around the world and lots of rocky, craggy canyons and mountain ranges.
  135. ------------------------------------------------------------------
  136. Aerodos
  137.  
  138. A world with many feral dragon races and scattered humanoids. With the tech level akin to that of vikings. This is a highly magickal world with many ruins of a once great kingdom hidden beneath the ground. Sadly this world is also affected by a contagion known simply as 'The Taint'. Which is slowly warping the minds and bodies of those who come in contact with it. Many forests, hilly landscapes, vast plains, and a few mountain ranges with about 3 large oceans.
  139.  
  140. There are various clans who all have different things they focus on. One focusing on magick, one focusing on weapons and industry, and another focusing on skill and dragon taming. However one of the fastest growing clans is one by the name of Successor wing which is trying to combine the skills of ALL the clans into one united one. A bold attempt.
  141.  
  142. There is also a hidden and VERY high-tech lab hidden in a lone mountain range where the dragon scholar, Xevach, lives with his adopted daughter, Valeria, a human with dragon-blood in her veins because of Xevach.
  143. ------------------------------------------------------------------
  144. Repultoris
  145.  
  146. A large world with many forests, oceans, and deserts, a well rounded world for supporting many different types of life. In a way making it similar to Terra's environment. It his home to MANY races which some would describe as 'monster' races. This world is where Grindak, on Isle De Criador, is from. To the locals, they just refer to themselves as Repultorians.
  147.  
  148. This planet IS capable of space flight, with rather low-tech, but functional, space ships. Usually their ships are a mesh-mash of parts welded and slapped together to work. Because of this, their ships are actually quite durable and sturdier than ships from the other planets. Just not as nice looking.
  149.  
  150. Most of the beings on this world are large bodied with big bellies. Due to some of the best chefs and brew-masters in the galaxy being from Repultoris, it's no surprise that many of the people of the world would be heavy eaters and drinkers. Tending to get along easily with anyone they find friendly to them. Eager to trade goods, and various services with friends.
  151. ------------------------------------------------------------------
  152. Ferarus
  153.  
  154. The world of Ferarus is inhabited by sentient feral beings. The majority of the inhabitants being quadrupeds with a few bipedal feral races as well. The inhabitants of this world are known as Ferai. Many plains and valleys cover this world with many thick forests as well.
  155.  
  156. Thanks to off-world influence, this world has advanced VERY rapidly. Rushing them forward to space-flight, teleportation, and more. Changing the way of life for many of the Ferai living on the world. This rapid advancement however, did cause a split in the Ferai to occur.
  157.  
  158. Many of the Ferai were spiritual and shamanistic, able to call upon elemental spirits to assist them in daily-life and better their lives. But when the Elohim found the world and introduced their technology, it made some conflict between the different tribes of the world. Many sticking to their old traditions while others gladly accepting the new technology they were presented with and changing their ways.
  159.  
  160. Ferai who accepted the new technology they were given advanced not only their daily lives, but their shamanistic ways. Many of them becoming 'techno'-shamans. Able to use magick and tech in tandem, calling upon 'machine' spirits and assist with them in using the tech they have. Some off-worlders have dubbed this 'techomancy', while others note this is them controlling hyper-advanced AI.
  161.  
  162. After visiting this world however, the Elohim and other races agreed to keep tech above any planet's current tech level away as to not RAPIDLY advance the people of a world and drastically change their ways of life.
