The Calinan Sea
Scene
The Laws of The Calinan Sea
The most obvious fundamental difference would be the presence of magic in the world. There are multiple systems of magic at play; the most prominent is the manipulation of the spiritual energies present in every living being. Some people have learned how to tap into their own spiritual energy to perform feats. This can vary from simply augmenting one’s own physical abilities to outright manipulation of the world around them. There are other forms of magic, but these will be kept secret for now.
Cosmology
There are many theories among the peoples of the world how their world came to be; and the true answer is something you'll have to find out through the story!
In the Calinan Sea region, the general school of belief is that either a pantheon of gods (the Avadian Gods, the Elemental Gods) or a singular omnipotent deity created and govern the universe.
Principal Geography & Features
The planet Annyrion is an Earth-like world in the vein of most fantasy worlds, with a similar size and geological/geographical makeup. It has a fairly diverse set of biomes similar to those found on Earth. There are six continents, three of which are our focus (Arikanda and Sembar in the northern hemisphere, Calina in both the northern and southern hemispheres).
Annyrion has one moon, Cliona, which has a luminous blue glow when seen from the ground. Annyrion's major difference from worlds like Earth is the presence of a ring system, which encircles the planet above the equator and is quite prominent from the ground.
Initial Active Setting
Most of the action in the world will be focused around the Calinan Sea region, analogous to the Mediterranean in our world. Most of the action takes place across the lower half of the continent of Arikanda and the northern coast of the continent of Calina, along with the Sea itself and its islands.
From its westernmost point to its easternmost, the Calinan Sea spans just over 5000 kilometres.
