Members can talk about worlds in this thread. :P


So far, I think the information about Draconia is pretty interesting, in my opinion. :-\
Especially the awesome information like that of the Karjamian Cliffs.
Interesting piece of history, that, I suppose?

I sure like it~ ;D
So that's how Venas got a toxic swamp? Because of the war?

Also, what's with the weird names like Mā'usa Laṛakī or Zhāngjiŕndōng?

I thought it was Karjam Cliffs, base upon the legend of the Red Karjam?

Now it seems you've changed it to be named after the Karjamian race. :P

Because of several wars, actually.

Also, what's with the weird names like Mā'usa Laṛakī or Zhāngjiŕndōng?
Intentional. And random. :P
I sure don't know how to pronounce those weird names, of course. :P

There's a contradiction in that statement.
Recall this comment and my reply to it...
Quote from: KarjamP
What’s the blackness?
Quote from: Shane
4024 years ago, a major world war broke out in Draconia. It was called the Devastating War.
All the deities of Draconia fought each other, in teams: the boys versus the girls versus the genderless (like Mani, god of machinery or Welthia, goddess of wealth; the genderless ones are often depicted as having a gender but they are actually genderless).

The boys and the girls were evenly matched, but the genderless used objects to their advantage. The war got so out of hand that even the Inhumans were affected, and this forced a mysterious red being (a Red Karjam, if you want to call it that ) to interfere. He used his sword to cause the destruction to distract the fighting deities of Draconia, forcing them to stand together to defeat him, no matter how long it will take. However, he merely threw his sword to Cirai, another planet, and asked the deities that they shouldn’t fight among themselves.

The blackness are called the Karjamian Cliffs, in honour of the Red Karjam who stopped the war.

It is based on the Granacliffs (http://grandia.wikia.com/wiki/Granacliffs).
It was named "Karjamian Cliffs" in the start, and not "Karjam Cliffs".
(Of course, Cirai probably has the Karjam Cliffs. After all, there's a giant sword impaled into the landscape.)

Besides, I only updated the description of the Karjamian Cliffs' legends, along with the descriptions of the currently known continents.
Of course, the map at the top of that page is no longer canon, sadly. The continents are larger than that in canon. :P

Also, what about the other continents of Draconia, Shane?

And yeah, you can post about Elvania whenever you want to. :)

Alright :)

Some questions, though.
  • Where does Hope of Shané take place, other than it being on Sylraphia?
  • Why does Cirai use dice as a currency?

FEST Chronicles take place on Aradia, which is part of the uninhabitable 75% of Sylraphia. However, as Hope of Shané: FEST takes place in Shané's mind, it's not the real Aradia continent.

As for why Cirai uses dice as a currency...
I have absolutely no idea whatsoever. :P

Possible retcon: the planet Karjamia is a planet that the Karjamians built by themselves, first by gathering huge chunks of rocks, melding them together, then terraforming them into a stable life-supporting planet before moving in, in a process of a couple of Earth months.

They're advanced enough to do it, so...

So it's basically a man-made planet, then, like Irova? :o

You know what she meant :P

So do any of you three have problems with Erinadia being part of Darii...?


Ah, nostalgia. It has been weeks since I last came here... and now that I'm back, I'll just poke around here.

Poke.
