>>30163192
There are ten autonomously-run cities: Onesville, Twosburg, Threeham, Fourings, Fivedale, Sixen, Sevencester, Eighton, Ninerpool and Tenstown
>>
>>30163197
They're all on the bank of one major river called Deka, with Onesville being closest to the spring and Tenstown at the mouth.
>>
Threeham is situated at a large waterfall, carved into the rock. No one but their own citizens knows how deep the city actually extends into the mountainous outcrop.
>>
Tenstown is the most metropolitan of the Ten Cities, with the great docks and seagoing trade that bring goods from the wider world.
>>
>>30163192
There are pigeons, and they're pricks.
>>
All homosexuals are exiled to Twosburg, causing most to assume (incorrectly) that all people from Twosburg are homosexuals.
>>
>>30163409
The pidgeons live high in the mountains, at Onesville. Onesville was founded and once populated by a clan of elves, but their poor adaptation for the terrain and the pidgeons' evolution into a race of powerful, majestic (if dickish) warriors helped them to force the elves out of their homes, repopulating the city and covering it in guano.
>>
>>30163417

Twosburg is the only place in the world where people can learn magic.

Most people assume (incorrectly) that Wizards are homosexuals.
>>
>>30163197
Sevencester is dull. Properly, seriously, selfharm-inducingly dull. Nothing of note has ever happened here.
>>
>>30163426
Onesville guano is shipped downriver on great shitbarges, used to fuel the chemical industry and provide fertilizers to the farmers of the Ten Cities.
>>
>>30163448

Which is why Sevencesters make up a large percentage of the world's heroes and explorers. They tend to never come back.
>>
>>30163442
To say someone has "the Twosburg style" is a grave insult among many of the people of the cities, but also suggest the person may command Fabulous magic.
>>
The mountains are the domain of the Geese People, they're known to attack without provocation
>>
>>30163442
This has led people in the fanatically religious region of Ninerpool to believe that if they could brainwash people into becoming homosexuals and hide them from the Homosexual Deporting Police, they could become magicians and lead Ninerpool to a glorious takeover of their long-term rival, Tenstown.
>>
>>30163417
Also, due to the scarcity of tailors, Twosburg is a clothing powerhouse, with nobility roaming there almost monthly for the most fashionable new garbs.
>>
>>30163197
Eighton is famous for it's donkey breeders, exporting pack donkeys to all ten cities.
>>
Fourings is centered where the Deka river meets another major river, creating a fertile and lush environment where huge amounts of food are grown in great flooded rice fields and peach orchards.
>>
There is a large subterranean civilization of peaceful frog people living under the river Deka.

Fivedale and Sixen are fuding cities situated next to each other, with only the river separating them. No one really remembers when or why the original feud started. There are many legends, however. Over the centuries, the feud has evolved into an extreme rivalry. Think Hatfields and the McCoys.
>>
>>30163538
>>30163569

A few decades ago, when the Fivedale-Sixen Rivalry was at it's peak, Eighton reneged on their policy of non-involvement and forged a pact with Fivedale. As Fivedale fought the Sixens, Eighton moved a division of their Donkey Riders to catch the Sixen army in a pincer attack. Sixen survived, but Eighton's reputation as backstabbers now proceeds them across the continent.

Fourings being the major grain basket of the continent gives them immense political leverage, and as such few oppose them in trade or military deals. Many think if they were to intervene on the Fivedale-Sixen Rivalry they could help broker a peace, but the Fourings people have no such ambitions to get involved.

The Frog Folk live throughout the length of the Deka, but they are at their most populous in the latter stretch of the river. The few who come to the surface are sometimes used as couriers, but they don't dare move above the surface too high up the mountain for fear of the pidgeons of Onesville.

It was during the midst of the War of Balran that the ten city-states first set aside their differences in the wake of a great and terrible foe.

When the demon Balkor swept through the Northlands with its demonic horde and devastated the armies of Onesville and Threeham at the Battle of Fell Ridge, the city-states united as one for the first time sin recorded history against their new foe. It took many years of warfare and cost untold lives, but in the end the city-states celebrated their triumph over the demonic hordes in victory-pyres erected all throughout the land.

An inland sea is on the east side of the continent, which contains several islands said to be inhabited by vicious goblins. They would invade the ten cities, but none of them has ever successfully learned how to make a boat.
>>
>>30163688
The devastation to Onesville and Threeham armies is still felt keenly throughout the continent. While everyone agrees that the pidgeons are pricks, they are now verging on endangered, and the intricate mazes of Threeham's caverns now lie empty and derelict. Only the most cold-hearted and cynical of Sevencester adventurers would pillage them so soon, but some have started to do so.

The mountain range unbeknown to all was formed countless ages ago when the last herd of truly giant tortoises went into hibernation. Every so often a tremor will shake a mountain as one stirs in it's so far unending sleep.

The citizens of Threeham, Onesville and Fourings are known for their obsession with Pie.

Due to the dickishness of the pigeons, they keep their pies in safe security systems for them not to steal.

The river Deka feeds into the Arcadian Ocean, a vast body of water that separates the relatively small continent of Numera from the larger body of land known as Minerva. Explorers and traders from Sevencester have already entered into diplomatic and trade agreements with the shore-based kingdom of Thoria, who trades its advanced clockwork weaponry and armor in return for the exotic and valuable feathers of the Geese People.
>>
Someone should keep all of these in track so I won't have to fuck up with the canons.
>>
>>30163688
There was a minor incident, as soon as the battle was won, however. The soldier, who finally slayed the demon was Sixen by birth, but was drafted by the Fivedeli army. Because both sides wanted all the credit, their forces clashed and the man who killed Balkor died in the ensuing brawl.
>>
>>30163538
>>30163599

But as the Eightons donkeys are invaluable to trade caravans and armies all along the river, and due to their feared donkey riders, no one ever dared to wage war on them and trade with the other citied still flourishes.

Given the Geese people's volatile nature, adventurers gathering these feathers are known to have a short (if interesting) life span, and as the trade of feathers starts to dry up the people of Thoria are getting more and more impatient with Sevencester traders.

the Train exists. Somewhere. You know the one.

Just rumors of course. Few have ever SEEN the Train, and fewer still believe them. Some told tales of friends who got on the Train out of curiosity... and then it started up.

They screamed for them to get off, but it was too late. My friend got on, and was thrown off right as the train picked up speed. When we found him, he had both his legs broken, and I could see his ribs pokin' out of his chest. All he said was "I didn't have a ticket with me." 'fore he died...

The militant Empire of Samech borders Thoria to the south. A vast territory comprised of many different provinces, Samech is ruled by the Serpent Emperor and his council. In war, the empire is able to call upon a myriad and vast array of troops in battle from the knightly orders of Mortressa to the dreaded giants of the Uraik plains. Their empire is known widely throughout Minerva, and the peoples of Thoria and Cthonia fear that they may be the next to surrender their sovereignty to Samech.

To the far.. far.. distant south, near the poles of the World, of the Ten Cities is known to be the Zeropolis. It is referred to as the birthplace of humans AND demons such as Balkor. Although it is a plateau of snow, it used to be a firey burning hell of never ending wars.

The humans left shortly after a billion years of evolving and adapting in the hellish fire, but mysteriously, the land was covered in the frozen snow, freezing and trapping almost every demonic being there.

Digging deep down the land will show you the true meaning of "when hell freezes over". No one in the Ten Cities dare to enter.

They need to bring Balkor back into this land.

Giant land worms known as the Kaulits are populated almost everywhere in the world. Roughly the height of ~20-30 meters, they contain fangs that contains a deadly disease that spurts out miniature worms inside your body. Although they rarely appear, they are able to cause plagues and famine across the world.

The largest worm ever encountered was about 46 meters.

The Decimal World as I understand it:

Onesville was founded by a bunch of Elves, but they couldn't tolerate the rocky terrain, and the pidgeons were becoming too much of a nuance, so they got the fuck out, and humans took over. During Balkors' rape of the Decimal World, Onesville was among the most devastated, and still hasn't fully recovered.
It is the biggest exporter of bird shit, because the Onesvillian Pidgeon is using their cliffs as a primary nesting ground. The guano is valuable as a fertilizer and is used to fuel the developing chemical industry.
Their current mayor wishes to one day rule all of the Decimal World, but is sadly too incompetent to achieve that goal.

Twosburg is the most developed town on the continent. This was an unintended consequence of banishing the homosexual population of other towns there. The exiled people were mostly tailors, painters, musicians, other artists and wizards, because homosexuals have a higher predisposition to being magic. This also fueled the incorrect belief that all wizards are gay (which only increased the town's wizard population). All of this led to several universities, including the wizard academy, making Twosburg the hub of technological and cultural advances. The town dictates the latest fashionable trends among the rich, and nobles will travel there bimonthly in order to keep up with them. It is also, unsurprisingly, the least populated of the ten cities. In the great war against Balkor, Twosburgs population took a big hit, and since most of it is gay, it never replenished.

Threeham is situated at the base of the mountain range, near a large waterfall, carved into the rock.

Currently, it's assumed that the majority population is human, but it's never been stated that ALL of them are. Halflings would be common as riverfolk, and some people from elevensdale may be of a more fishy persuasion.

Threeham could use some more defining, I think.

Fourings is the first major power down the river. Just before the city, the Deka merges with another large river, causing frequent flooding, which in turns creates fertile soil, ripe for farming. Regionally, they are unmatched in military and trade, and they are the only power that has a chance facing Tentown alone.

Onevile, Twosburg, Threeham and Fourings all have an unhealthy obsession with pies.

Fivedale & Sixen are two feuding cities, situated on opposite banks of the Deka. No one knows what the original feud was about, but there's not really much interest in finding out. What matters is that the feud has transpired into a rivalry unlike any other. It goes so deep, that on the night Balkor was defeated, the cities fought over who got to take the credit for his slaying, accidentally killing the hero in the process. They keep mercenary armies, ready to go to was at all times, draining their coffers dry. During one of the battles over Darkplat Manor, a mysterious fog appeared and when it was gone, the mercenaries were gone with it.
The towns sadly don't realize, that united they could be a force to truly be reckoned with. Fouring and Tentown, however, realize this all too well, and conspire together to fan the rivalry between them. Allegedly.

Sevencester is boring. It is incredibly boring. And nobody knows why. It is a complete and utter mystery. But even that has its perks. Its people want to leave it so badly, that so far, they're the only Decicity, that has established contact with the oversea kingdom of Thoria. Although, the only reason the city has knowledge of Thoria is because Thorians wouldn't let them stay, and they had run out of supplies to traverse the open sea. Sevencester is also responsible for the most heroes and adventurers in Deciland as escape via boat isn't always an option.

Eighton is a trading superpower, due to their successful/botched mule breeding program. Fire breathing mules provided caravans additional security against road bandits, so their trade flourished. They also exported these mules, but not so much, that they could be militarized by powers other than themselves. Their deployment of firebreathing mules in a Sixen/Fivedale conflict has earned them an unflattering reputation among other cities. And they distrust Eighton ever since.

Ninepool is conflicted because of this

I'm missing way too much stuff, though
>>
Ninepool is a literal ghost town, populated solely by the dead who have for whatever reason been unable to cross to the other side. Undead are naturally threatening to the living by their nature, and so are hated by all other cities.

The undead themselves cling to the memories of their previous lives, and so delve deeper and deeper into necromantic magic hoping to get through to the "other side" and go all the way around to living again.

East of tenstown, there exists two kingdoms that are both relatively close to the Ruins. The numbered cities would have a lot to fear, apart from the fact that these kingdoms have the same relationship as fivedale and sixen.

Evenshire is to the south, and has great control over its shoreline, bringing in a lot of fish products. Their navy is something to be feared, since the bottoms are capable of moving on land as landships, if wheels are attached. For some strange reason, they completely support Sixen in their war against fivedale.

Oddsland is to the north, and along with the closeness to the Ruins, along with the rather impressive mines they possess, they are only challenged by Twosburg in technological advancement. Their mechanical warriors are pretty sweet. For some strange reason, they support fivedale in their fight against Sixen.

The capital of Oddsland is Prime Numerus.

The capital of Evenshire is Factorate (Factors, you geddit?)

The invention of fire breathing donkeys/mules also transformed Eighton into the first and so far only air power in the land.

Air ships such as donkey powered hot air balloons are used by the brave to traverse long treacherous terrain.Their fatality rate is slightly* higher than regular donkey powered transportation. The Eightons are also attempting to militarize these airships.

Ever since the Great Ass Fire in Tentown, when a considerable portion of the city was burned down as a result of a Eighton trader using his donkey to light his pipe within city limits, all donkeys and mules are banned within city walls in all city states except Threeham and Sevenscester.
Threeham is mostly made of rock, so they don't care, and Sevencester is too apathetic to act.
The fire also extremely strained relations between Eighton and Tentown.

Rolled 64

Public masturbation is encouraged
>>
Every summer, Fivedale and Sixen cease hostilities for three days. During this time, their top athletes compete in sports.
The festival starts with cross-river tug rope, where a very long rope is pulled across the river. Both towns' entire populations are encouraged to participate in this event. The rest of the games then take place at the previous victor's city. The last and most anticipated event is one-on-one sword fighting. Each city chooses their champion, and they duel it out in the arena. If there hasn't been any armed conflict since the last Summer games, the fight is to the death.
The games generally proceed without any extra violence, as citizens will respect the truce. As soon as the games are concluded, though, the visiting city's athletes and spectators will start some shit on their way home.
During especially cold winters, when the Deka freezes over, large scale civilian brawls often ensue on the ice.

I'd definitely be interested. I might even do that myself tomorrow.

But now that the world has been pretty well defined, Maybe it's time to think up some notable people that inhabit it.
>>
The Decimal Cities
Onesville was founded by Elves, but, unable to adapt to the rocky terrain and the constant assault by strange pigeon-mutants, the Elves were driven away. Eventually, the pigeon-mutants evolved into pigeon-people, and settled in Onesville. During Balkors' rape of the Decimal World, most of Onesville's infrastructure was destroyed, but the majority of the population survived to rebuild. It is the biggest exporter of bird shit, regularly shipping it out to the other cities.. The guano is valuable as a fertilizer and is used to fuel the developing chemical industry. Their current mayor, a human using illusion magics to look like a pigeon-person, wishes to one day rule all of the Decimal World, but is sadly too incompetent to achieve that goal. Everyone knows, but lets him go about his business because he's not that bad as a mayor.

Twosburg is the most developed town on the continent. This was an unintended consequence of banishing the homosexual population of other towns there. The exiled people were mostly tailors, painters, musicians, other artists and wizards, because homosexuals have a higher predisposition to being magic. This also fueled the incorrect belief that all wizards are gay (which only increased the town's wizard population). All of this led to several universities, including the wizard academy, making Twosburg the hub of technological and cultural advances. The town dictates the latest fashionable trends among the rich, and nobles will travel there bimonthly in order to keep up with them. It is also, unsurprisingly, the least populated of the ten cities. In the great war against Balkor, Twosburgs population took a big hit, and since most of it is gay, it never replenished. Today the number is rising, albeit slowly.
>>
>>30177143
Threeham is situated at the base of the mountain range, near a large waterfall, carved into the rock. No one but their own citizens knows how deep the city actually extends into the mountainous outcrop. Threeham's forces took the brunt of Balkor's attack, and as a result, vast parts of the city's deep underground interior were abandoned. These underground passageways shift and expand, making a comprehensive map of the interior impossible. It has recently become the headquarters of an criminal network, which aims to exploit the fire donkey blood economy and illegally distribute the fireblood across the land.

Fourings is the first major power down the river. Just before the city, the Deka merges with another large river, causing frequent flooding, which in turns creates fertile soil, ripe for farming. Volcanic ash-soil also flows in from this second river, contributing to the land's fertility. Regionally, they are unmatched in military and trade, and they are the only power that has a chance facing Tentown alone. Halflings make up a majority of the farmers and traders, but the military is composed of races from all over, including goblins and intelligent geesemen.

Fouring and Tentown, however, realize this all too well, and conspire together to fan the rivalry between them. Allegedly. The only thing these two cities are united in are in keeping dwarves and elves away, as exchanges of sappy love poems between cities insults their generations-long fueds.

Sevencester is boring. It is incredibly boring. And nobody knows why. It is a complete and utter mystery. But even that has its perks. Its people want to leave it so badly, that so far, they're the only Decicity that has established contact with the oversea kingdom of Thoria.

Sevencester is also responsible for the most heroes and adventurers in Deciland as escape via boat isn't always an option. The majority of death for people from Sevencester, however, is not from adventuring, but rather from harvesting feathers from geesemen. The high fatality rate has led to decreased export to Thoria, angering the racists immensely.

Eighton is a trading superpower, due to their successful/botched mule breeding program. Fire breathing mules provided caravans additional security against road bandits, so their trade flourished. They also exported these mules, but not so much, that they could be militarized by powers other than themselves. Their deployment of firebreathing mules in a Sixen/Fivedale conflict has earned them an unflattering reputation among other cities. And they distrust Eighton ever since. They have recently begun attempts to create airships powered by fire donkeys.

At first, Ninerpool was a city obssessed with power. Seeing(and misunderstanding) the trend of wizards and homosexuality, Ninerpool began kidnapping people and brainwashing them into homosexuals, in an attempt to produce more wizards. This failed spectacularly, and ended with the fall of Elevensborough and the practice of banishing homosexuals to Twosburg. Despite not facing the majority of Balkor's forces, Ninerpool lost its entire population. Now, it is inhabited by the ghosts of the fallen, who crave life so much that they are capable of remaining corporeal. Their research into undeath and necromancy allowed them to raise Kaulits, albeit without their dreaded poison. Though instrumental in the final attack that defeated Balkor, the residents of Ninerpool are now listless. Unable to truly enjoy life, they crave the intensity of their battle with Balkor, and secretly work to resurrect him...
>>
>>30177240
Tenstown is the most prosperous of the Decimal cities, using the split rivers of the Deka as natural irrigation. They possess a fearsome, well-supplied navy, trading with the other coastal cities aside from Thoria. As the city least affected by Balkor's attack, Tenstown is currently the greatest power among the Decimal Cities, in trade, economy, and military might. This superiority may soon end, though, with Eighton's continued research into fire donkeys and Twosburg's thriving academies.

Long ago, there was an underwater tribe in the sunken city of Elevensboro, but the men all perished due to rampant homosexuality spread by Ninerpool missionaries and the fish-women assimilated themselves amongst the remaining cities. Legends say that the treasures of Elevensboro have remained mostly undisturbed.

>captcha: Augustus rdsweat

One of the most influential members of the city of Eighton is the prominent donkey-baron known as Augustus the Red. He earned his nickname after a close encounter with an unpredictable donkey which left him with angry red scorch marks covering most of his body. While his subordinates favored killing the donkey for its transgressions, Augustus joked about "keeping your enemies close" and adopted the animal as a combination of pet and guardian. He has since trained it to belch fire on his command, posing a considerable deterrent to any would-be assassins or thieves.

One of the most prominent wizards of twosburg, Neral the second is the dean of the best university of the city, to which only the brightest students of the elite are admitted. Contrary to most other university deans, who spend their free time dabbling in politics, he is always in a remote location or another studying various phenomenons that may be of arcane significance, after several trips to the volcano, rumors say he is planning a journey to the numeonulia jungle crater. He often notice only too late the troubles lesser wizard assistants who accompany him have with keeping safe on these dangerous journeys and so after numerous incidents the number of students willing to go with him has diminished to comprise only the bravest adventurers and fools or the most knowledge hungry and ambitious students.

Other Places of Interest
Wasteland of Ruins
To the east of the Ten Cities lies the Wasteland of Ruins. Once perhaps a collection of city states rivaling the Ten Cities, now they only lie as treasure troves for adventurers nestled in desert sands.Though it seems that the original inhabitants were very fond of traps and monsterous creatures that don't die of old age.

Each ruin is named after the the letters of the Alphabet. The most impressive Ruins in the Wasteland of Ruins are the ones that start with Q, X, Z and Y, but the ruins that start with A, E, O, U, and I are the most mapped and the most well traveled.

The Goblin Sea
An inland sea is on the east side of the continent, which contains several islands said to be inhabited by vicious goblins. They would invade the ten cities, but none of them have ever successfully learned how to make a boat.

The mountain nearest to the Goblin Sea is an active volcano, and the goblins worship it as their god. Fertile ash-soil from this volcano washes along the second river into the Deka, contributing to the crops.

New, slightly more cautious adventurers went to investigate again, and found a worrying similarity in plant and animal life to that of the Onulia Jungles.

Darkplat Manor
An abandoned manor situated along the territories between Fivedale and Sixen. During a particularly bloody and gruesome battle fought right at its doorstep, a mysterious thick fog materialized over the combatants. By the time the fog had disappeared, the mercenary forces hired by the two cities were nowhere to be seen.

Historical Events
Balkor's Assault
It was during the midst of the War of Balran that the ten city-states first set aside their differences in the wake of a great and terrible foe.

When the demon Balkor swept through the Northlands with its demonic horde and devastated the armies of Onesville and Threeham at the Battle of Fell Ridge, the city-states united as one for the first time sin recorded history against their new foe. It took many years of warfare and cost untold lives, but in the end the city-states celebrated their triumph over the demonic hordes in victory-pyres erected all throughout the land.

Losing their leader, Balkor's armies were pushed North of the mountain range to the desert land uninhabitable by mortal life forms, but they survive there still, wandering the planes nomadically as they await Balkor's return as a Wraith Demon.

Creatures of Note
Kaulit
Giant land worms known as the Kaulits are populated almost everywhere in the world. Roughly the

height of ~20-30 meters, they contain fangs that contains a deadly disease that spurts out

miniature worms inside your body. Although they rarely appear, they are able to cause plagues and

famine across the world. While little is understood about kaulit biology, it is rumored that they

behave in a manner similar to ants, with the male warrior worms roaming in search of food to return

to their central subterranean hive and sustain their gigantic kaulit queen.

The largest worm ever encountered was about 46 meters.

The Battle of Fell Ridge would have been an even more devastating rout had one such Kaulits wreaked

havoc on Balkor's army, allowing just enough time for some pidgeons to escape carrying Threeham

warriors. This inspired the barely corporeal spirits of Ninerpool to attempt to possess Kaulit

corpses. Despite losing its signature poison, these undead Kaulit proved to be a dangerous threat

both during and after the war. Many political leaders are worried should there come a time where

Ninerpool comes into possession of multiple Kaulit corpses. As a subtle way to prevent this,

Kaulits are immediately carved for parts, and the main currency of the ten cities was converted

into Furs, Claws and Teeth.

Kaulit fangs are prized as bioweapons and Kaulit hunting is a dangerous yet lucrative occupation.

Farmers tend to plant them in the middle of their fields to reduce the need for irrigation.

Their wood is highly prized as a magical conduit, and wands and other artifacts made from the wood are extremely potent.

The trees themselves hardly ever bloom however, and much research is being done into how to grow them from cuttings from other trees.

Minerva
Thoria
A coastal city that long ago split off from the Kingdom of Foria over a dispute on how to spell its name. Thoria is a city possessing advanced technology, exporting its advanced clockwork weaponry and armor for the exotic and valuable feathers of the geesemen. Given the Geese people's volatile nature, adventurers gathering these feathers are known to have a short (if interesting) life span, and as the trade of feathers starts to dry up the people of Thoria are getting more and more impatient with Sevencester traders.

Thoria's citizens, while embracing of trade deals helpful to them, are a xenophobic and angry race of people who would never let foreigners stay in their city for any length of time, a fact shown by how impatient they are getting with Sevencester's traders as the Geese feather supply dries up. Because of this and the fact that those born in the dreary-grey of Sevencester are the only ones to have traveled out to Minerva, they have a pact of secrecy to protect their trade agreements, and no other City has knowledge of Thoria and it's peoples.

Foria
Not much is known about the kingdom of Foria, other than the fact that there exists a small faction of rebels who believe it should be spelled Fouriah.

Cthonia
Another coastal city, Cthonia is the main trading partner of Tenstown. They possess considerable economic might, but their military is lacking, save for a few charismatic centurions.

Samech
A vast empire encroaching from the south. Samech is ruled by the Serpent Emperor and his council. In war, the empire is able to call upon a myriad and vast array of troops in battle from the knightly orders of Mortressa to the dreaded giants of the Uraik plains. Their greatest strength, however, stems from powerful magical artifacts uncovered from ancient temples like those in the Onulia Jungles. Their empire is known widely throughout Minerva, and the peoples of Thoria and Cthonia fear that they may be the next to surrender their sovereignty to Samech.

In Samech, knife fighting is a popular sport, and is the equivalent of football or soccer. It has an understandably high mortality rate, and those who live long enough to be famous become peerless killers.

Tharis Nain
Situated between Cthonia, Thoria, Foria, Samech, AND the Onulia Jungles, Tharis Nain has unofficially become known as the neutral territory, where peace treaties are negotiated and signed. Such high intensity politics have left its citizens rather nervous, and many have built underground bunkers should war ever erupt.

Onulia Jungles
The jungles of Onulia hide many secrets amongst its ruins. Situated between Tharis Nain and Cthonia, Onulia conceals not only ancient temples and ruins but also all forms of deadly and untamed wildlife. Samech expeditions have recovered powerful magical artifacts within the ruins that date as far back as The Time of Creation. The Onulia Jungles are at their most dense to the North, and this is where the majority of the hidden ancient temples lie.

A race of secretive sentient bears live in the onulia jungle, and occasionally venture out in small teams to challenge passersby to games of baseball. The outcomes of these games are always disasterous, and prophetic of future events. As such, several of the cities are working on creating ultimate baseball teams, hoping that if they can challenge the bears and win, they will prevent the fate set out for them.

forgot the frog people

Anurans
The Frog Folk live throughout the length of the Deka, but they are at their most populous in the latter stretch of the river. The few who come to the surface are sometimes used as couriers, but they don't dare move above the surface too high up the mountain for fear of the pidgeons of Onesville.

and that's all from me.
