> Children of the Elementals.
They're literal Elemental Stone beings crafted by their deity, Sinher.
> Location:
The Mountains of Altana
> Associated Territory:
Buviet Guyasouth
> Deity:
Sinher - Deity of Knowledge and Time
> Main City:
Arnes
> Controlling Entity:
Magic Tower

· · ─ ·✶· ─ · ·

›Physical Appearance

The Aidrogun is a race capable of manipulating the elements to their advantage due to how their body is created. Through a mana core at the center of their chest, it is the obvious source of where their magic comes into play. However, despite this many Aidrogun underneath their skin-like layer is pure elemental stone with their 'veins' being their mana flow.

› Distinguishing Features:

Crystalline eyes are one of the most distinguishing features from the Aidrogun. It is a show to the world on what their element truly is. There are many Aidrogun that choose between allowing their hands to do the same as their eyes, removing the protective powder that is dabbed on their skin they show to the world their interworking with no fear of their appendages being broken off due to how durable their body is.

›Average Weight and Height:

On average, all Aidrogun are heavy though this is mainly due to how their bodies are made which is of course, of pure elemental stone. They have an average height that ranges from 5'2 to 6'.

›Extra Appendages:

None.

Abilities

› Natural Abilities

Magic. Incredibly gifted in terms of magic, the Aidrogun are literal beings and batteries of mana that have little to no difficulty with their element or other elements. Because of this crystal-like body, they're capable of withstanding extremely cold climates hence why many Aidrogun live within Buviet.

› Magic

The Aidrogun were gifted with the ability to use most, if not all magical elements. However, despite this gift, Sinher, for the sake of balance within the world, has limited the Aidrogun to the type of crystal they're made out of for their element. Any step outside of their natural elemental stone capabilities is marginally more difficult than one would think.

/ / / / / / / / / / / / / / /

Culture and Social Life

› Way of Life

The Aidrogun live a lonesome life, they're reclusive and prefer keeping to themselves. However, this doesn't mean that they're completely against the idea of allowing foreigners into their land. Many live in main cities due to the location of Buviet Guyasouth being one of constant winter/cold and being in a city simply meant being in a place that's warm.Most Aidroguns go into the Magic Tower for their education, trying to enhance their magical capabilities to it's fullest potential under the watchful gaze of Sinher. Those that do end up earning their deities attention eventually find themselves reaching potentials they never knew they could have been given before. Raising them up from simple students to professors or researchers in a multitude of fields.Those that do not go into the Magic Tower end up becoming commoners and work jobs that are easy to do with the simple magic they would have been taught as children from their parents. These jobs range from a multitude of things such as farming, enterprise, going into guilds or rising up to become nobility.

› Social

Aidrogun have a multitude of preferences in terms of the way they live. Most prefer a solitary life hence why most end up living in the Magic Tower till they eventually die. For them, a life where they can learn more and receive more knowledge of what their originator wanted from them is one of the most blessed abilities they could have.

› Hierarchy

Leading the Aidrogun is the Magic Tower and it's master who has reached such high knowledge that they have become the proxy for Sinher themselves. The master is known for two things which is their high mana reserves and their knowledge of elemental manipulation. A secretive third thing that is known about the Magic Tower master is how they're so feared by the nobility that resides in Buviet that they ended up becoming somewhat of a ruler for all of the country.

›Culture

Ideally, an Aidrogun must not be stubborn, they must not allow silly things like emotions to take over and they absolutely must /not/ let greed sully their vision. Traditionally, the adolescent Aidrogun go through a rite of passage from their parents or parental figure in order to determine what exactly their strength lies in. Would it be magic? Would it be allowing themselves to follow in their parent's footsteps? Who would truly know other than the deity themself, Sinher.Ontop of this, Aidrogun highly respect their elders this can be through making sure they help them with crossing streets or carrying heavy things for them. This is due to how the Aidrogun respect knowledge for it is a power that many outside of Buviet find that understanding as silly and useless.

› Religion

Belief in Sinher's Blessings of Knowledge and Time, the Aidroguns fully believe in the ideal that their deity is the true source of magic on Altana. Afterall, without Sinher they wouldn't have possibly been created from crystal. Many do pray to Sinher in hopes that they answer their prayers, but this doesn't mean much when they're unaware that the deity is far too absorbed in managing the mana lines to even answer them. Traditionally, as a rite of passage for many Aidrogun, they give a piece of their crystal and lay it within a statue to show their respect for Sinher.

› Way of Life

The Draconais are a rough humanoid species, they reside in the clouds above the savanna of Porosouth. Meaning they life with little to no trouble in regards to being safe from the monsters that reside below them. However, known for her strict teachings, the people Ilse created follow her laws in regards to those who are deemed worthy of living amongst them. Her word is law, her word is justice and those who disobey such laws are exiled to live on the harsh savanna where without the proper protection, all will die. So those that reside in her clouds live strictly in code and help each other when possible as long as they're not caught from Ilse's watchful eye...

› Social

There are two sects of the Draconias, those who live in the protection of Ilse's clouds and those that live on the ground with Ilse's daughter, the Second Princess Lua. The girl being pushed out from the main sect due to her flaws which were her eyes and lack of wings. Taking up the mantle of using her abilities to protect those around her, Princess Lua protects those that were exiled along with her. Making sure that those that escape her protective barrier return home where they can remain safe.Despite the split between two Draconias, they are still protected under Ilse's blessing. Meaning that despite their statuses as one that lives in the sky being higher than one that lives on the ground below, all are to be treated equally. After all, even young nobles are forced to leave the safety of the clouds...

› Hierarchy

Within the two sects, the main person that is followed is her majesty, Queen Amyra "Ilse" Fergui. The woman who acts as Ilse's proxy and gave her body up for her deity so that she has rule over her people. That is Ilse, that is their protector that all honor and obey.

› Culture

For the Draconias, the differences between the Sky Sect and Land Sect are like night and day.Those that live within the sky are extremely respectful towards everyone, each one bowing during their greetings while holding their hands up. They would rather ignore those pleading for assistance than offer their own help due to the pure reason that is: would they be looked upon with respect for helping someone? Would this action cause them to live a more 'honorable' life? Why question such a thing when you can ignore it instead and aim for Justice.Meanwhile those that live on the land are no doubt rough around the edges, yet they go out of their way to assist those that require help. Those that were newly exiled and were forced to adapt without knowing their way around the rough savanna. Thanks to Lua's enhanced blessing, the land they live on is almost a heaven compared to how rough things can be the further out from her barrier you go.As per tradition, every other year the Draconias go on a journey to Porosouth's canyons. In this area is held the "Awakening Festival" which for those that are unfamiliar with the Draconias' traditions, this festival is nothing but a trial to see who would be able to survive the longest through their own wits and strength. Many Draconias that go through this "festival" end up dying and those that survive are given Ilse's glance.

› Religion

Due to Ilse having direct contact with her people at all times, the Draconias simply follow her ideal and beliefs in hope that one day she will personally arrive at their door step to provide them with a blessing. Many that think Her Majesty Amyra is simply pretending to be the deity herself and so they instead pray to Ilse in hopes that what they do as her people will earn them her eventual glance.

The Dyvinians tend to live a solitary life away from other races. Living deep within the forest, they only truly control that small patch of land within the territory that is, again, deep within the forest. This can mainly be due to how they view nature and how they choose to honor it instead of allowing themselves to gorge upon the land. They decide this through Uesis's blessing of wisdom for their homeland is filled with a variety of creatures that benefit from the land. Without these creatures, who know other than the gods themselves what would happen to the Dyvinians.

› Social

Living such a solitary life, many Dyvinians find comfort in being able to help their fellow forest inhabitants (animals) and are often seen with animals as their companions for traveling outside of their city's safety. Many see the Dyvinians as wise guides for whenever travel through a thick and vast forest is needed due to how Dyvinians are also able to communicate through magic with the flora and fauna.

Within Abridgeria the people believe deeply in the concept of what happens to one will eventually return to them in kindness. Thus leading the Dyvinians to constantly go out of their way to aid animals they see are hurt from either traps that were laid down by any Aiheots living within their land, or animals that are simply sickly. On top of this, the Dyvinians believe purely in not eating meat, which leaves them to be quite knowledgeable in terms of foraging through the woods to find various shrooms, plants, and even at times fish if allowed. Before each meal it is common to thank the deities for their blessing and after the meal, whatever could not be finished is usually given to their companions.

› Religion

Uesis, Deity of Magic and Wisdom. That is who the Dyvinians worship and look to for guidance when they're in trouble or struggling with anything. Many of the Dyvinians who worship him often have animal companions that are given to them through ritual. These animals often take form as either a spirit or through physical means and are thought to be Uesis' blessing and protection for them in disguise.

Hoshi are the perfect mix of Solari and Lunari, meaning they're the embodiment of the stars themselves.However, the ever so prideful Solari, the children of the Sun, see the Hoshi as lesser beings than them. Leaving the Hoshi born in Thena into a life of servitude and slavery while their Lunar counterparts live a life of freedom. Those Hoshi that are free live a life where they are fighting constantly to free their brethren. Despite being known as kind people, they're also known for their ever so strong resilience in the face of refuge. Leaving those that are greedy enough to take advantage of their Lunari features to hunt them down to take them in and force them back into the difficult life. However, with this difficulty, the Hoshi have managed to retain their sense of identity and thirst for freedom.

› Social

Thena (Solari) Hoshi - Are seen as weak and lesser beings due to not being a full Solari, meaning those Hoshi that are born within this land are put into slavery or are kept with their Solari families and are forced to live a life where they are seen as lesser than their half siblings.Yatori (Lunari) Hoshi - Are seen as equal to the Lunari despite sharing the blood of the Solari. They're given the same chances as every Lunari and are able to climb the ranks like every Lunari out there. Despite this, these Hoshi understand the freedom they have and fight desperately for their people's freedom.

› Hierarchy

There are no rulers for the Hoshi, it purely depends on where they live as mentioned prior. Some do end up splitting up into groups where they travel as a tribe and the oldest one there is the leader. However, as a whole, the Hoshi either follow their people or whoever they're living with. In the case of Thena, it would be under their 'owner' then to the Emperor of Thena. In Yatori it is simply the Empress of Yatori that rules over them.

› Culture

There is a simple belief that is shared from the Hoshi, do not follow Qasus. Do not pray for the deity that has seemingly abandoned them.

› Religion

As said by the ever so kind Empress of Yatori, "Pick a god and pray."They do not have a god. They do not have a deity to believe in. Not anymore.

As a people, the Ipuc live in a variety of civilizations such as in villages, towns, and even cities. However, unlike the Dyvinians, the Ipuc openly live where those can access them. This is due to many reasons, one of them primarily being for trade purposes due to the weapon work of the Ipuc being of the highest quality. The second is due to how well versed the Ipuc were in their healing arts. Meaning, they prefer being social with others but that didn’t necessarily mean they were welcoming of them. Despite being well known for how social they were with other races, it is also well known how the Ipuc had a deep seeded fear of outsiders that did not look like one of their own living amongst them.

Half of the Ipuc reside in a forest while the other half resides near the coast in lavish buildings meant for the nobility of the Ipuc. While those that live in the forest are respected due to their handy work, the deep rooted fear is more known there leaving any visitors to the towns to be mistreated to the point that many decide to leave and instead visit the coast.

Concealment, do not allow people to know how you truly feel. In order for harmony to run its course amongst the Ipuc hiding their emotions is commonplace. This even applies to the strangers that they interact with on a regular basis for purposes of trade or tourism. In order for the Ipuc to hide how they feel, many tend to reveal their emotions behind closed doors, so training areas dedicated to releasing emotions are commonplace.

› Religion

Their lord Moratae one of Earth and Harmony, they view him as one that created their home. For without the earth beneath them they wouldn’t be where they are now. This is especially true for those that live at the coast. In order to show their respect for him the Ipuc have a small shrine in their cities/villages/towns to provide offerings to him. Once a year, a large celebration is held for his honor in hopes that their loved ones that are no longer residing with them physically will be safe. Every three months there is also a celebration of the earth, where the Ipuc bring the ore and grain they have to the capital of Siricroa to offer it up for Moratae.

Kriel live in an interesting manner, some prefer to live on land while others prefer to live in the ocean. This is capable purely due to Ydis’ blessing which enables them to remove their mermaid tails whenever they’d like. The perk for this ability allows them to only venture onto land for a variety of reasons, such as attending important world meetings or participating in tourism activities. With their unique ability to transform their fins into legs at a moment's notice, they are often compared to mermaids. However, due to their limited interactions with humans and other land-dwelling creatures, they may not be fully aware of current events or trends.
It is worth noting that while the Kriel generally prefer to stay in the water, there are some who have chosen to live on land, particularly on nearby islands. Despite this, even these Kriel may not be fully informed of events outside of their immediate surroundings. Nevertheless, the Kriel's ability to adapt to various environments and their fascinating shapeshifting abilities continue to captivate and intrigue individuals around the world.

The Kriel are ruled through Ydis herself with her proxy being Kamalani “Ydis” Atan and her hand chosen advisory behind the name “The Oftu”

› Culture

Kriel fully believes in showing respect to those that come to visit them and those who are older. There’s also a deep belief that alcohol should only be consumed on days of celebration or if it is to be consumed outside of days of celebration, it should be done in moderation. It is also important to the Kriel to be dressed properly so that going into the water and outside of it would be done with ease, meaning many tend to wear flowy outfits.

› Religion

It is believed that Ydis is the creator of the ocean and that without her guidance, the calm of the waters will be stuck in a state of turbulence. Which leaves them to pray and leave her offerings to Ydis as a way to sooth her anger and sorrows so that their travels across the water will be safe. Ydis in turn grants their wishes in grace, allowing them to travel safely, and takes their offerings of alcohol so that she can use it to comfort herself.

› Social

While the Lendarians keep to themselves most of the time, they do keep their borders open to all. However, there is a clear concern for other ‘weak’ races, which affects their relations. This doesn’t help the fact that they seek to protect them at all costs. As a result, only those seeking calmer alliances look away from the Lendarians. But even with this disdain, the Lendarians remain a fascinating race to study and learn from, with their unique abilities and history.The Lendarians have a rich culture that revolves around the concept of honor and loyalty. They place great importance on their responsibilities as warriors, and their dedication to their people is unwavering. They have a deep respect for nature and the natural world, and their traditions reflect this reverence. Their society is organized into clans, each with its own unique customs and values. Despite their reputation as fierce warriors, the Lendarians are also known for their hospitality and generosity towards visitors.

It is important for the Lendarians to have family meals together if possible. While that is important to them it is also important to show their strength through how firm their handshakes are. Showing pride in themselves via making sure their appearance is always well maintained is important for the Lendarians as well.

Lunari live a life of peace and have dedicated their life to living within the light of the moon, leaving most festive activity for the Lunari to be held during sunset or the night time. One of the many things the Lunari tend to do relationship wise is embracing a polyandrous/polydynous lifestyle to allow them to live within a system that supports each other and enable them to have a loving environment. Such a factor is important to the Lunari due to their physical health factors such as the difficulty for pregnancies in the first place. Thus common practice for them is to create these kinds of relationships so that they’re able to continue the growth of their people.

› Social

However, despite all the effort the Lunari have done for their people and the people beyond their land, the Lunari are often subjected to slavery. Of course this wasn’t by their own choice, the peaceful people would never willingly go into something like that without a fight. The reality of the situation unfortunately is the kidnapping that is rampant among the corrupt nobility. Many Lunarians are taken from their homes and are often sent to Thena where most have private deals with the said nobility.Despite the forced slavery of the Lunari, those that live within Yatori are widely known for their acceptance to almost anything that they deem will continue the life of peace that is experienced under the rule of the Tsukimi Royal Family. Leaving many migrants to wander into their lands for a better life as well as learn from the Lunari on how to take advantage of their own land. It is because of these opportunities that the Lunari people are known to have great relations with others while not being forced to use fear to make others do what they want.

› Hierarchy

Being ruled over via the Tsukimi Royal Family, it is through their bloodline and close relation to the deity Ran Lee that they are allowed to watch over the people. In turn, the people allow this family to rule over them due to how openly the family shows their love and admiration for them. The current ruler of the Lunari people is Her Radiance, Empress Inochi Tsukimi, daughter of Hibiki and Natsumi Tsukimi.

› Culture

As mentioned before, Lunari are highly accepting of poly relationships. It isn’t uncommon to see a group of people that are all out together on a group date in order to ensure that there is no bad relations amongst the group in Yatori. It especially isn’t uncommon to see large homes as well within this land for their said families. Commonly, it is also accepted to not wear outdoor shoes within the home and instead, if needed, to wear house slippers around the estates. Bowing to their elders and nobility, ensuring that respect is always shown towards their people is also something common to see. Another common thing to see within the Lunari is family meals, the entire family must eat together and do things together so that they can bond with each other since Lunari see a family bond as one of the most sacred of things.

› Religion

Their deity Ran Lee is a passive goddess, she doesn’t allow herself to intervene with the people nor does she allow herself to manifest amongst them. However, prayers for her blessings and guidance are common amongst the Lunari. To show their love and admiration for the said goddess, every month whoever is the ‘blessed’ child of the said goddess must perform a dance to welcome in a new full moon in order to ensure that whatever is next in their life will pass by smoothly. Many times the blessed child is either the empress or the princess of the royal family.

It’s interesting how similar the Kriel and Mantriel are despite their preference of where they’d prefer to live. Perhaps it is due to Ydis’ deep admiration for sea life that she created them as such. Like the Kriel, they’ve been given the same blessing of removing their tails and using it as a way to swim through lava instead of water. This allows them to walk on land much easily and in comparison to the Kriel, the Mantriel are simply able to do much more land wise. Meaning that most Mantriel know more about what is going on around Altana in comparison due to the ease of talking to the other races.

› Social

Mantriel live in a land where there is always a volcano in action, leaving them to become adjusted to the fumes and heat that would regularly harm anyone else that would come within its vicinity. Leaving those that wish to interact with the outside world to travel beyond the volcano and into designated areas that are safe for outsiders. However, the Mantriel and Kriel live in a state of rivalry due to who their deity is, so most Kriel and Mantriel communication is done purely through a third party.

› Hierarchy

Aroha “Ydis” Havili is the head of the Felthorn, like their rivals, the people are ruled by Ydis through her proxy.

› Culture

Despite being like the Kriel, the one thing that is vastly different between them is how alcohol is consumed. Most of the time the Mantriel steer away from it and instead drink juice made of honey and coconuts as a replacement for it. Many Mantriel also wear outfits that are form fitting and resistant to being burnt, leaving many to have a change of clothes outside of the lava instead.

› Religion

Despite Ydis being their creator and guidance, her worship isn’t commonly found on Mantriel land.

Ollea live within a land that is stuck in a perpetual autumn, this is due to their deity Miyu. Because of this constant cool weather the Ollea live in such a way that commonly there are little huts located around their homeland that work as a small heating area for those that are unable to handle the cool weather. Many Ollea prefer to live in cities so that they’re always near each other and in areas that are known to be peaceful and away from monsters.

› Social

As a people, the Ollea enjoy being able to interact with others that come to visit them through tourism. Their home, despite how cool it is, is a place they hold with great admiration. Though as a people, the Ollea prefer to live together with the whole family residing within one estate. Many homes in Suto have been passed down from their many times great grandparents to the current generation. The main reason why these homes are still standing of course is through renovations to said homes. This is one thing that the Ollea took from the Lunari as inspiration for how to deal with living under one roof.

› Hierarchy

As said years ago the great Empress of Suto was given a prophecy from their precious deity Miyu. This prophecy was that the first born daughter of the Empress will always be gifted with the ability to see through Miyu’s eyes and become the saint of the Ollea. Under this prophecy, the law made it so that regardless of the daughter being an illegitimate child, she will be the next empress.

› Culture

As expected from the Ollea, bowing deeply towards those that are higher ranked than them or older than them shows the other how much they respect the other. On top of this there is always an alcoholic drink being served at every meal and occasion since in Suto, drinking is something that many partake in moderation.

› Religion

Far does Miyu’s reach stretch to the point that at every residence there is a small shrine for her in honor of their precious deity. At these shrines, small offerings of food are often provided and once these offerings are gone, it is a sign to the owners that their residence was blessed overnight.Abilities

Pheo come in all shapes, sizes, subclasses, and abilities, making them a truly unique species. While most Pheos are known for their human-like appearances, it is important to note that they are not always what they seem.

› Distinguishing Features:

There are three branches of the Pheo and each branch take on different features depending on where they're from.Insects: These Pheo are small and gifted with wings that match dragonflies, ladybugs, even bees. They're agile as expected, but are also strong depending on the traits they gain.Aerial: These Pheo often get mistaken for the Vequaniel due to how they take in the feathery traits a Vequaniel typically does. They also get mistaken for some Zerkal due to the same reason but the features they share are the bat wings. One thing the Pheo do lack in comparison to these two races is the typical tail to follow suit.Reptilian: Pheo that come from this branch typically have a long lizard-like tail behind them but features that resemble the Draconias. What is missing from these Pheo are the typical wings that their fellow Pheo have.

› Average Weight and Height:

Depending on the branch the Pheo is from the height between each ranges drastically from a mere 4' to a staggering 8' height. This also follows with their weight as well where insect Pheo often are lighter due to the need to be swift, while their reptilian counterpart typically are heavier since they simply enjoy soaking in the sun instead of rushing all over.

›Extra Appendages:

This again depends solely on the branch that most Pheo come from.

Abilities

Thanks to some fiddling, the Pheo gained the ability to control light which is the ability to create weapons out of light, or even manipulate light to become solid. This ability is not only limited to creating weapons but also to creating barriers which can protect themselves and others. Moreover, Pheo's ability to manipulate light can also be used to heal others by infusing light energy into their bodies.

Pheo live in towns/villages all across Rema Gremaki, this is purely due to how their environment is. Most of the Isle is split and so far apart that the residents there prefer living in this sense of solitary where once a year, they all meet at least once for a festival/reunion amongst their kind. Although with this, the Pheo have claimed only half of their territory and prefer it this way over having the whole location.

› Social

Pheo are known to be tricksters, their behavior in knowing that their likeness is similar to those of other races, they take full advantage of this in order to trick others outside of their home to get what they want. Outside of Rema Gremaki, many see them as silly younger siblings that tend to get scolded but at the same time are treated with respect. Afterall, their god is known for his joy and sorrow so they’re simply his followers in spreading this ideal. Yet, because of this known stigma towards them, Pheo are also never truly taken seriously unless they’re part of the controlling entity, the Silver Guards.

› Hierarchy

The Silver Guards. A group of noble families that are known for their strength and their blessings, they serve directly underneath the deity Krytos. They elaborately hide this fact from the rest of the people and the world by lying and telling all who come to meet him that Krytos is instead “Afon” is his name.

› Culture

Fun! All must enjoy life and embrace whatever comes their way, even sorrows are something that can come from joy. But each emotion a Pheo goes through is simply something that was meant to happen to them. It’s important to the Pheo to see life in a positive manner and live in a way that brings such joy to themselves, this is why oftentimes the Pheo are known as tricksters.

› Religion

The god of the Pheo is Krytos, however, they don’t fully believe in him due to his ideal being entirely vague. However, despite that, they look to him for guidance if they’re going through a difficult time in their lives and do not know what to do next. Often times this is why he is known for being the overseer of Sorrow, for that is something he often helps his people with.

Solari are lively people and prefer living in large cities or towns due to where most Solari live, which are near the scattered oases. The way the Solari determine who is the 'head' of their towns/villages are mainly through who is the strongest amongst them. Often times, the leader of these locations are the Red Solari which grants them the ability to take in more partners to enhance their connections with other territories in their country. In terms of socialization, the Solari live a life where they depend on each other for survival in the dry and hot desert.

› Social

The Solari look at the Lunari as weaker beings than them and often times it is common to see Lunari slaves amongst their own slaves. This is due to the Lunari Nobility giving away their orphans or even trading their own children to the Solari in order to gain more power/respect from them. However, the Solari take these Lunari in and more often than not, treat them even worse than a Solari slave. The Solari also believe in using slavery as a means of punishment. Most who are enslaved are there due to a debt or crime that they're in, most of these enslaved Solari are often treated much better than their fellow Lunari salves. Simply showing how low the Solari see their other half. Despite this, many races see the Solari as a wise and powerful race due to their deity Zafir. Leaving every Solari to be treated a bit better than others.

› Hierarchy

Following a belief that the strongest amongst them all rule their villages/towns, the true ruler for the Solari is the 'King' this ruler is usually the Solari that has the closest relationship with their god 'Zafir'. Meaning this ruler gives their body and soul to him so that they are his vessel, allow him to take over and personally rule over his followers.

› Culture

Many Solari believe in living life as fully as possible within the blessing of the Sun, so when the their said sun sets, it is usually time for rest. For the Solari, rest means that they spend time in their homes with their family and eating together while talking about their days. Often times, it is the eldest of the family that will be served first at meal time then the rest of the family may eat when given the permission to. Solari find that respecting the caste system they've created and following it is the one way that they can hold onto their own social customs. However, those that aren't Solari and are visiting are also forced to follow these customs outside of their own private residence. The problem of course is the lack of markings which the Solari have led to just placing their visitors as high as the common Solari.

› Religion

Zafir is the Deity of the Sun and the eldest of all the gods leaving many of the Solari to heavily worship them. Often times, people look to Zafir as a means of guidance or to see if he could enhance their motivation to continue on with their long days. Traditionally, the royal Solari that has the closest relationship to Zafir or any Solari chosen by Zafir himself is made to be the next ruler of their people. On days where this Solari is chosen there is a full month of celebration and there is a significant increase in the feasts just for their deity.

Known as the Winged Children of Altana, many Vequaniel lean into their heavenly work and are often seen as clerics, treating the other children of Altana all the while spreading their views of Lady Vila's work to others in hopes of converting them into their religion. Due to Lady Vila's ideal of Beauty and Life, they treat life with a careful touch. Believing that if they care enough for each living being, their Lady's light will shine down upon them and bless them for a lifetime.

› Social

Due to their work in churches and supplying their aid to those who need it, many Vequaniel are treated kindly. Though upon closer inspection within the land of Riguabya there is a clear hierarchy amongst the people. Those who live freely and do as they wish are treated like children that must be taught carefully on how to bask within Lady Vila's light. While those who do live to her ideal and are in a high seat within the church as treated Lady Vila's chosen one child.

› Hierarchy

The higher up one is within the Church, the better they stand within society. In family life, this is also the case where it could range from the grandparents having a say in what goes on within the household to the young adults that have reached 'enlightenment' through their acts of service. However, not every family is like this and often times, they take great care into trying to guide the youth into a path of a proper devotee.

› Culture

Respect goes a far way within Riguabya, each one treating one another as they would like to be treated, even if that means being a bit passive aggressive in their teachings. Their virtues are mindfulness, clarity of thought, and self-control.

› Religion

For Lady Vila is the god that they depend on for guidance and worship, through her tales, many Vequaniel try their best to live up to her ideals of Life and Beauty. Fully believing that once they reach enlightenment and aid their fellow man enough, they too will be blessed with eternal life in the true heavens.

Many can find those in nobility with the capabilities to secretly work with those of the 'underworld'. There are 6 high standing noble families and their work is to provide their fellow people a better standing to anyone outside of the family. This can be through dirty under the table jobs or simple civil duties such as cleaning the streets. No matter where one turns, they can see one of these families influence within the region of Andnica. Though, any Zerkal outside of nobility live a fairly good life with provided homes that can be easily moved or even many opportunities for those less fortunate to get help. However, with this, it isn't uncommon to find a Zerkal assassin or mercenary for hire outside of the kingdom Andnica. They find that providing their version of a peaceful death and guiding the lost soul back to their 'home' is a duty more than a job. The perk for the job though is the money.

› Social

Beings born of darkness within their soul, the Demonic Children of the Gods are often viewed as monstrous demons with no place in the world. However, their sheer determination to create a better future for their people is respected by many, despite the difficulties that they face. Despite being shunned by some people, they continue to work hard towards their goals and fight to be seen as a 'morally correct' to those outside even to the point that many see Zerkals as a virtuous people.

› Hierarchy

Gerontocracy. The Zerkal's government is based off of a group of elders since many see that being able to live for such a long time brings them closer to a 'death' which also equates to wisdom in how one lives life fully. Even though many Zerkal don't physically age after a certain point, they're able to reflect their age through magic the older they become and the more powerful they become. Which means those who are older are usually hundreds of years old. Which leaves those in power to rotate every fifty years via election.

› Culture

The main belief behind a Zerkal's way of living is that suffering should not make you useless and no soul stands apart at the end of the day. To suffer is to live and to live is to suffer, but that is why many enjoy the day to day life within their home. There is reason behind everything one does, to live a life filled with dull days isn't how one can present themselves to Death himself after all one must share a thrilling tale of life when presented with their god. This, however, does not mean that the Zerkal act like barbarians, even if many see the Zerkal as 'villains' in a story.

› Religion

The main virtues of a Zerkal are insight, nostalgia, and inwardness. This is associated with how many see their god, Eion, a man who overall believes in being able to look into the past and accept that time has come to embrace death. Leaving many to embrace the concept of acceptance while remembering how one lived in life before their deathbed for after death, you reside within the heavens. Many Zerkal look towards Eion for guidance, believing that if they follow his virtues properly they too will be blessed.

The Depraved

Corrupted individuals are created through belief in the false god Ruri. They are people who have been corrupted via the blood of the false god. Those who have been corrupted can lose their morality and sense of self, becoming 'Depraved'. Those who are deprived of all hope and joy follow Ruri, the false deity of corruption whose power relies solely on the corrupted's belief in her. Ruri is the creator of the Depraved. Her original role within the pantheon was to care for the infant gods that Kuro and Altana created. However, due to Altana's misery and pain, Ruri was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time and was cursed with corruption so painful that she thought this pain should be passed onto others. So, passing her blood onto her 'followers', she gives them the pain they all feel they deserve. Ruri typically passes this corruption on through her blood, meaning those who come into contact with it or consume it, or become contaminated with it, will be forced to become corrupted. She often preys on those who are close to breaking already, those who are weakened mentally and physically. If one were to try to figure out exactly when they became corrupted, they simply have to remember a butterfly stained with red and blue.

—•✦ False Deity

Ruri, the first creation of the deity Eion, was given the important task of watching over Eion's benefactors and their children. She took her duty seriously, especially when Altana became pregnant. Ruri's protection over the child in Altana's womb became fierce, and she made sure that no one approached Altana without being thoroughly investigated. Her dedication to protecting Altana and her child made her a revered deity among her peers. However, despite Ruri's best efforts, Altana suffered a tragic miscarriage. This event was a turning point for Ruri, as it caused the primordial deity to become the first corrupted individual. Her grief and anger were overwhelming, and she struggled to come to terms with the loss of the child she had worked so hard to protect. Despite her reputation as a fierce protector, Ruri's heart was heavy with regret for her failure to save Altana's child. She often wondered if there was more she could have done to prevent the tragedy, and this guilt weighed heavily on her. Until she could no longer remember why she was so distraught over such loss. — Is what most thought of her, until it came to light her true reasons for becoming so power hungry.

Cure?

Currently, there is no definite cure for the curse, only ways to prevent it from becoming more corrupted. However, there are a few options one can take to become "cured." For instance, one possibility is to locate one of the elusive gods and plead with them to remove the curse. This approach requires a great deal of luck and perseverance, as the gods are notoriously difficult to find and even more challenging to persuade. Another option is to find someone who is blessed with the Heaven element, a rare occurrence, and ask them to temporarily halt the spread of the curse. While this approach may seem more feasible than the first, finding someone with the Heaven element can be just as challenging as finding one of the gods. It requires extensive knowledge of the curse and its effects, along with a network of connections and resources to locate someone with the desired element. Despite the difficulties of these methods, they remain the most promising avenues for those seeking a cure for the curse.

Information:

On Altana, magic is the basics of mana manipulation. While magick is like water on Altana, not everyone is capable of using it to its fullest extent. leaving only those who are blessed to grow into powerful magi. the basics of magick is split into multiple spells and elements. Giving others an advantage or disadvantage against others while limiting them to what their "inner pool" can handle. Though, those who work on their mana manipulation long enough, are able to train it so that it becomes an 'aura’

Magic Deity:

The true deity of magic is Uesis, however, one cannot run without the other. Being the twin sibling for Sinher, they both aid each other in controlling the Mana lines. Sinher, with their infinite knowledge, takes the most control over how magick is controlled. Uesis, on the other hand, controls the limits and the distribution of mana. Meaning that one without the other can lead to multiple influxes of control making it difficult for magick users to use their abilities in a stable manner.

Types of Mana:

On Altana, the magical energy that flows within the body is referred to as mana, of which there are two types. The first type of mana is white mana, which is highly valued for its purity and safety for the user. This type of mana is commonly used by the inhabitants of Altana. However, in recent times, the use of dark mana has become increasingly prevalent, especially among those who have been corrupted by its power. Dark mana is a dangerous and unstable form of magical energy that can cause immense pain to the user if too much of it accumulates within their body. It is therefore imperative that all users of mana, especially dark mana, exercise caution and moderation in its usage to prevent any adverse effects on their health and well-being.Light Mana:
White Mana is the life force that exists within every living being and object in the world of Altana. It represents a pure flow of energy that is usually safe to keep without the need for an opposing force such as Dark Mana. This mana is essential for all living beings to survive and thrive in their daily activities. The amount of White Mana that a person can hold is determined by their body's capacity, which is unique to every individual and can be influenced by factors such as age, health, and experience. However, it's important to note that excess White Mana can also have negative consequences. When a person's capacity is reached and they continue to accumulate mana, the excess will start to overflow. This overflow will then lead to the emergence of Dark Mana, which is a corrupted and unstable form of mana. Dark Mana is not only harmful to the individual, but it can also have devastating effects on the surrounding environment. Therefore, it's crucial to maintain a balance in the amount of White Mana one possesses, to prevent any overflow and the emergence of Dark Mana.Dark Mana:
Dark Mana manifests within one's body once their inner mana flow reaches its cap and overflows, indicating a strong influx of magical energy. This mystical energy can be harnessed for various purposes, including enhancing spells and rituals, or for augmenting physical and mental abilities. However, the overuse or forced entry of Dark Mana into one's body can lead to adverse effects, such as physical and emotional instability, uncontrollable rage, and even death. It is important to note that while Dark Mana was initially associated with pure intentions, its misuse has led to widespread fear and condemnation from various magical communities. The harmful effects of Dark Mana are not limited to the individual, as it can also taint and corrupt the surrounding environment, causing catastrophic events. To prevent this, it is recommended to use Dark Mana with caution and under the guidance of experienced practitioners. Proper training and control techniques can help prevent the dangerous side effects associated with Dark Mana, while still allowing one to utilize its unique properties.

Asudia Explanation:

Asudia, the aura weapons, are highly specialized weapons crafted specifically for aura users.They are designed to cater to the needs of those who can afford the costs associated with them. These weapons are made using Elemental Stones, which are known for their unique properties and abilities. The Asudia weapons are not just ordinary weapons but are also a symbol of style and fashion. They can be transformed into accessories such as a necklace, bracelet, or even rings, which can be worn by the user to showcase their unique style and personality.Each Asudia weapon is crafted to complement the user's elemental powers. The weapons are imbued with the power of the user's element, which makes them more effective in combat. For instance, an Asudia weapon designed for a fire element user will have the power of fire imbued in it, which will make it more powerful when used by the user. Asudia weapons are not just limited to a single element. They can be customized to suit the needs of the user and can be imbued with multiple elements to make them more versatile in combat. This means that the user can switch between elements, depending on the situation and the opponent they are facing.

Folklore

゛ ⸝⸝.ᐟ⋆ The Beginning
In the beginning... Altana and Kuro were the sole inhabitants of the land. Altana, with her long flowing white hair that shimmered in the sunlight, possessed eyes that appeared blind but held a remarkable ability to see the world around her. Despite her delicate appearance, she possessed a strength that belied her stature. With the aid of a staff and a graceful tail, she navigated the world with elegance and grace. Kuro, on the other hand, boasted pitch-black hair and eyes that glowed like fiery rubies. His body was adorned with moles and crystallized digits that mirrored the obsidian beauty of the land. While his legs were stained with darkness, he possessed the ability to stand tall. Like Altana, he relied on a tail and a staff to maintain his balance. These two beings, seemingly opposite yet perfectly matched, embarked on a journey that would shape the destiny of their land. They were an incredibly happy couple, doing absolutely everything together and making all decisions together. After all, this was Altana's work, her planet, her cherished home for Kuro and their children that they lovingly crafted together out of clay and tears. These children soon grew into the fourteen deities who wandered the land, tirelessly seeking out places to raise their people. Each deity eventually went on to create their own distinct races that bore striking resemblances to their divine features. Until... One fateful day, a lesser deity began to grow within the womb of Altana. This left her with the overwhelming task of nurturing and caring for the life she was bringing into existence... Ah... What blissful days those were. The radiant light danced and sparkled across the vast oceans while the Kriels and Mantriels playfully swam alongside one another. The Lunari and Solari joyously shared laughter, and all was harmonious. The sound of laughter seemed to reverberate throughout, and the babies thrived abundantly. Everything... It was perfect.
