Panthea
1080
Panthea is an immense flat world. Although it is just a single world is a
sea of other worlds,it extends outwards seemingly forever. Within the center of the world there is an earth sized area known as the
midlands. At the southernmost reaches of the midlands there is a ring of frozen mountainous continents called the
The Southern Continents. Beyond these continents is the
outlands, a seemingly endless expanse of countless new continents and uncontacted peoples. Since the
outlands was discovered 270 years ago, several empires from the midlands have been founding colonies in those distant mysterious continents using massive
airships and submarines in order to bypass the harsh waters around the
Southern Continents.
The
midlands is a place of great natural beauty. Despite human civilization being far past industrialization and having huge cities and populations, 90% of the land in the midlands is still wilderness which is roamed by many an increcibly diverse array of
life, such as the several species of
mammoths,
sabertooths,
woolly rhinos,
dire wolves and
dire bears. The greatest predators of the
midlands are
woroks,
elephant sized bear-like carnivores and
hallon, monstrous birds of prey which can have wingspans of up to 94 feet (28.6 meters).
The
outlands is even more diverse and wild, only a miniscule fraction of the outlands has been explored and already countless new species have been discovered like the mighty
dinosaurs and pterosaurs, as well as multitudes of large mammals, reptiles, arthropods, amphibians, and more. The
humans and other human species that inhabit the
outlands are also mostly uncontacted and the
outlands serves as the ultimate endless frontier for exploration, adventure, and conquest.
Both the
midlands and
outlands are inhabited by
humans. Anatomically modern humans make up most of the humans in the world, although there are many ancient archaic human species that live in the far off corners of the world. Some of these other human species are the
Giants, a species of colossal humans that live in tribes in remote regions of the midlands,
meganthropus, giant apelike humans from the jungles of
Tamal, and several more.
There are also the many oceans of Panthea which are abounding with colossal
sea monsters like
krakens and
emperor whales.
