Known for its formidable mercenaries and monstrous beasts, Anatha has a reputation for creating powerful adventurers that are known world round. Anatha also holds the most dragons in all of Vallaera. **[[Ayuma]]** is the continent of craftsmen. The most skilled Dwarven smiths and engineers come from Ayuma. Ayumian craftsmanship is sought after across the world as their magical items are like no other. While other continents in the world have the propensity to create magical items, none do it like Ayuma. **[[Castkia]]** is the largely unexplored continent at the North Pole of Vallaera. Many nations across the world have colonies on the continent to extract its valuable natural resources. Castkia is the only place in the world to contain Coldsteel, a uniquely durable metal. Castkia is said to be home to a variety of monsters but what lies in the Frozen Frontier is unknown. Many expeditions have been sent to explore what lies to the far north, but not all of them return. **[[Kalistis]]** is the desert continent of the arts. Some of the world’s best painters and sculptors come from the lands of Kalistis. Kalistis is known for its unique wildlife. The creatures of Kalistis are popular warbeasts sought after across the world to fight in whatever conflicts they are needed in. **[[Motu]]** is the continent of seafarers. Motu’s central location makes it a huge hub for trade across the oceans. Motu is known to deal with various incursions of pirates but otherwise remains a merchant’s dream. Motu made ships are known to be stronger and faster than any other vessels and their ordinance is unparalleled on the seas. **[[Paladis]]** is the continent of knowledge. Paladis hosts a big concentration of magic users and universities catered to them. Disciplines such as Graviturgy are exclusively taught in the halls of Paladian universities. Some of the world’s best magic users hail from the lands of Paladis. **[[Shijuthu]]** is the continent of medicines and herbs. Shijuthu is known to be a tropical paradise and a hub for tourism. The jungles of Shijuthu host unique flora found nowhere else in Vallaera, making it an alchemist’s heaven. Unique potions and medicines flow out of Shijuthu and headlines most of their exports. Due to the unique properties of Shijuthan plants, the party scene of Shijuthu is known to be very popular. Adventurous party goers from across Vallaera flock to Shijuthu for its unique clubs and parties. **[[Tavra]]** is the continent of cities and prosperity. Tavra is currently in a golden age, experiencing advancements in all of its fields. Tavra is the hub for academic universities and the creation of spell scrolls. Tavra is the largest continent and also the most diverse. Tavra is home to the largest metropole in Vallaera and some of the most influential nations. Not much is known about **[[The Lost Continent]]**. Approaching the Lost Continent, sailors see what seems to be a great waterfall, emptying into a vast cavern within Vallaera. Only the most daring adventurers have braved the Lost Continent and almost none have come back. It is known as the most dangerous place in all of Vallaera. ## The Pantheon There are 39 Gods in Vallaera, [[The Great Nine]], [[The 25 Reborn]], and the five [[Saints]]. ### Great Nine: Kyros - Justice Luminus - Life, Fertility Maka - Magic Traniara - Death Iridyon - Nature Dabris - Evil, Darkness Lantos - Oceans Alinila - Transitions, Thresholds Vo'ak - Protection ### 25 Reborn: Cezona - Agriculture Chubbyam - War Reva - Love Enulla - Healing Notios - Knowledge Ekrasil - Trickery Daius - Strength Edarus & Alzarus - Harmony Ki - Luck Drana - Moon Lumeria - Sun Sosha - Earth Talros - Hunting Murann - Dreams, Prophecies Shavteus - Craftsmanship Lyr - Art, Music Deneir - Wisdom Miantha - Blood Rumjir - Travel Madoth - Revenge Evnir - Honor Iais - Space Zintris - Time Damron - Deceit Xhimdal - Plagues ### The Saints: Anathor - Hospitality Tavra - Journeys Kalistis - Miracles Motun - Seafarers Paradi Paladi - Riches ## [[Adventuring Parties]] ## Worldwide Factions
