This Chapter is dedicated to the geology and species of Oblitus, the world where the story is taking place.

The Species:

In the beginning there was thousands of species that all completed for territory, food, and other vital resources. Out of these thousands there was only eight of them that created empires, they are considered the 8 Intelligent Species. These eight were man, elves, orcs, gears, burrowman, beastman, shades, and dwarves..

Though they are called the eight intelligent species doesn’t mean that they are the only ones that are smart. The reason for their label is because of the empires they built. In the world of Oblitus there are several intelligent beings; fairies, sprites, goblins, and several more.

The monsters are the savage races. Those born for pure destruction, but have mostly been eradicated 2000 years ago. Unfortunately the GM’s have revived them in order for their players to have something to fight and gain fame and fortune

There is another group that also inhabit this earth and they are the animals. Like you would guess there is your everyday animals like cows, fish, and lions. Unlike we know them on earth they are extremely more powerful and a lot bigger. There is other magical animals like the traib, as well as griffins, and dragons.

Humans:

Man was the earliest creation but quickly found their way to the top eight. This was because of their disregard for tradition and strong ambition. Through their continual innovation they brought the old world into a new age of technology and magic.

The main base for the humans is the Northern Continent of Collis. They quickly spread out in the world and can be found everywhere but the forbidden West continent Vastitas, and the Dark Continent Mors.

Elves:

Elves are the oldest and most magically attuned of all of the eight intelligent races. There are many variations of the elf race but the main ones are; harvest, wood, ice, dust, and battle. Most of the elven race is highly prideful except the dust and harvest elves who are looked down upon by the rest. they are deeply tied to tradition and hate change almost as much as they hate monsters.

The elves originated from the Middle Continent Nemus but have spread across the world except for the Vastitas and Mors.

Orcs:

Green skin and fearsome these are the orcs. They are the greatest of warriors on the battle field. They are pure brutes that once angered will rampage till their target is destroyed. Though they are strong they are extremely compassionate and friendly assuming you are able to prove yourself worthy in battle.

Orcs live in the Eastern Continent Palus and have been content to stay there.

Gears:

Gears are a rather unique race. They are four feet tall pale skinned with green eyes that have cross hair shaped retinas. They aren’t able to use magic but rely entirely on machinery. They are a secluded race that keeps to the selves and keeps their technology a secret. Sometimes you can find them strolling around in grand 6 meter tall mechs that patrol their area .

The gears live in the Southernmost part of the Southern Continent Syra. They are extremely seclusive and won’t leave their territory.

Dwarves:

Dwarves are the greediest business man in the whole continent. They are usually three feet tall with compact muscles. Unlike popular belief they aren’t short and pudgy but small compact beings with nerves of steel. They are quickly angered and ill hold a grudge for a life time. They are also masters of the forge assuming you can get them to make you something. One thousand years ago they won a bet against the burrowman and now treat them as slaves to work in the mines.

The dwarves live up in the mountains on the Northern Continent Collis. They have been known to travel around the world to find hidden ores.

Burrowman:

Burroman live as slaves under the dwarves and are forced to work in the mines. They lose a bet with the dwarves over who could craft the best city but lost due to the dwarven creation of explosives, you can use your imagination. They were only enslaved for 500 years but the tyranny of the draves wouldn’t let them free. Burrow man stand at six feet tall, have dark brown skin. and have dark brown crystal scales that cover the side of their arms, legs and torso.

They live in the mines in the Northern Continent Collis.

Beastman:

Half man half beast. They have humanoid bodies with animalistic features. There are four different types of beast man; wolves, bears, tigers and monkey. As a race they are highly competitive and hate to lose, however each variation has their own personality quirks.

The beastman don’t have a specific Continent but instead live in Syra, Palus, and Nemus.

Shades:

Shades are a mysterious race made of complete shadows. They can take any for they want so no one really knows what they look. They are even more seclusive than the gears and twice as deadly.

The shades occupy the forbidden West Continent Vastitas. No one disturbs them and they don’t leave their continent.

The Hybrids:

The Continents:

There are six known continents on Oblitus, North-Collis, East-Palus, South-Syra, West-Vastitas, Middle-Nemus, Dark-Mors.

Collis:

The north continent is made of Giant mountain and rolling hills. It is a hardy place that takes a strong will to live in. Food is scarce but the people have learned to live of goats and terrans a type of giant bird that nests in the mountains. The staple crop is the earthy potato and some legumes grown on the hill tops.

Palus:

The eastern continent is one giant marsh filled with beasts and disease. You always have to be on the look out for predators like giant insect and beast. Fresh water is sacred in these parts because of its scarcity. Only the strongest can survive this inhospitable place.

Syra:

The southern continent is lush and full of green.It has the best type of soil for planting and its abundant crops feed the world. It is mostly flat with plains miles to see and its vast amount of rivers and lakes provides fresh water.
