A quick and easy draft. General information that most people know. It is all agreed by every culture that Orvin, the World Maker, is the true god and the high lord of Gaia Orvin. Through him, the world, the stars, and everything that is pure in the world was his doing. With his creation, he sent out a call for lesser gods to come to his world, bearing gifts of their choosing to inhabit and live upon his creation. Several came from all planes with plants, animals, and races of beings. When they came, the world and the plane was young and nothing to bare fruit upon its barren land scape. So Orvin put himself in the middle of the world and tore his own flesh, bleeding his immortal and powerful blood into the very soul of the world. This is where the belief that the world and Orvin is one.
With this strange and curious situation, this also brought forth a strange occurrence in the gods and their beings they brought with them. They were as though cleansed of all the ideas and common beliefs of their old lives. Races were given a different chance, nothing born of either good nor evil. A balance. This brought forth the acceptance that any being could be of either direction.
Like most beginnings, the races were not born with the technologies or granted the concepts of the older planes, instead starting out as common foragers and tribes of people. Nomads and farmers. But the world grew quickly, passing through ages that took millenniums to take affect in the passing worlds. In only 1900 years from its birth, they had already entered into the age of civilization. Kingdoms began to rise with cities, villages, and systems of government. And also, a strange a large scale of intermingling species. In other planes, most of these would be enemies, but here, there was chance for anyone to prove themselves.
100 years since the creation of civilization, the world has entered the age of true renaissance. Of true discovery. Young and fresh, there is a chance for anyone to discover and find their own place. Their own being that could change the face of Gaia Orvin.
There are four locations that are already Mapped. Lumeria, Garudia, Tyrannia, and the Hellscape. Lumeria is the main center of civilization. One of the first kingdoms, It is a small land with plains, farms, and hills making up its major landscape, with rivers flowing through four different directions. This has the largest occupation of intermingling of species and is very accepting of the different races.
Then there is the Garudian Forest, also known as Garudia by its inhabitants. It is filled with the lives of fey and common indigenous creatures common to areas such as these. There are other races that exist here, but not in large numbers. It is the largest body of forest land in all of the continent.
Tyrannia is a land locked kingdom, surrounded by a chain of mountains known as the Dragon Spires. The Dragon spires earned its name for the largest body of dragon folk. Also home to many creatures who find comfort in mountainous areas, it is a very dangerous place. Magic is wild upon the Dragon Spires. Tyrannia itself is much like Lumeria when it comes to races, but has many social issues, including Racial dominance and racial strife.
The last land created is the Hellscape. A large, barren, desert wasteland. The largest land mass in the area, it is a very dead environment. Night only falls every so many days at random intervals as the 6 suns that surround the massive planet seem to constantly revolve around it. Some areas are so hot that there a locations that are fields of molten glass. Only the kingdom of Zelkander exist, a utopia that exist without any real indication to its strange form of life that allows farms and plants to exist. Zelkander belongs to a powerful Necromancer, who is a very just and righteous man. Mostly human, his people love him, willingly giving their dead to be raised into their army. They hide there, away from persecution of certain powerful enemies.
