My Worlds
The Aradian Universe
This is the broader world in which my books Bellica, The Jade Star of Athering, and the upcoming Anala take place.
Bellica took me 13 years to write (I started when I was 12), and a lot of that time was spent building up the world. Worldbuilding is a HUGE part of any story I write, but WorldAnvil is the first time I've decided to be so public with it. It's a little scary but also really fun.
Zarqon
I went ahead and created another world to more fully explore the world that Bellica and its sequels take place in. I realized trying to keep it ALL in The Aradian Universe would quickly get unwieldy. So if you're here because you wanted more about the Bellica Trilogy, then check out the Zarqon world.
The Borderlands Saga
Yep, I'm well-aware there's a video game franchise with a similar name. Absolutely no relation -- I came up with my series name before knowing anything about the video game.
The Borderlands Saga is probably my most challenging world-building task, to be honest. It's a parallel-universe spanning portal fantasy series in which gods become mortal, mortals become gods, and the laws of physics are more guidelines than actual laws.
None of this was intentional. I plotted Stranger Skies to be a standalone, but partway through drafting I realized it was the first in a who-knows-how-long series. It, like most of my projects, grew exponentially when I wasn't paying attention.
Wahi Ho'ano
This is a world I'm creating under the name KA Manuwai, as that's my pen name for the books that will eventually be published.
The idea for this world came out of half of my formative years: from the age of 12 to 22 I lived in Hawai'i with my mom and our wolf-dog, Blue.
Yes, we lived with a wolf dog in Hawai'i. That is relevant to the book series.
Wahi Ho'ano is a fictional island set in an Alternate Universe Earth that's very similar to our Earth except for some key historical differences and the presence of quite a bit more magic and mythical creatures.
It's an island in the Pacific, north of The Kingdom of Hawai'i, where mythic creatures of all sorts have made their homes for centuries. It's a bit of a sanctuary island for various mythic beings. It was also a major hub for piracy, and the reason the Pacific was able to have a Golden Age of Piracy in this AU Earth.
The books I'm writing set on this island are going to be paranormal mysteries, and that's about all I'm saying for now.
The Unmade Lands
This is another pen-name project. I'm writing this series under the name KC or Kat Leannan and it will be GameLit. (Less-crunchy LitRPG.)
The Unmade Lands is the setting of a video game. Mostly. (More on that later.)
The Unmade Lands is Earth, just after an event made magic come back to the world. In this case, it literally unmade some places and created new ones, hence the term The Unmade Lands.
Not a new idea, but I hope to put my own spin on it.

Social
Honorary & Occupational Titles
Lady of the True Woods is Silva/Thalaea's official title. She is an odd deity in that she used her True Name with her followers and with other deities. Most deities use titles or epithets, keeping their True Names hidden. As Silva is not a human god whose purview includes wolves, but the essence of wolf itself, deception is mostly alien to her.
Religious Views
Complicated. As a god, belief was something mortals had in her, and other gods were her coworkers. As a mortal, she finds herself engaging in religious activity, though she doesn't know how she feels about it.
Social Aptitude
Strong sense of etiquette, but from a wolfish perspective. She does not understand the human tendency to deceive, lie, or otherwise obfuscate the truth.
