Rune Caster Lore Entry #1: Planet Kor

Before the Astral Convergence, the planet Kor was a cold dark primordial one, and the continents were one super content. However, during Astral radiation, Kor's ecosystem drastically altered and affected life on the planet, causing them to evolve quicker. After some time, the super continent broke apart and some of the land masses started to rise in the air due to high concentrations of Astra, creating the floating islands known as the Overland. Kor has two moons, Elysium, a light blue moon, and Tartarus, a red moon. The geography and climate differ in each continent and the islands near them.

The world of Kor has two maps, the Midland and the Overland. The Midland is land that is pretty much still part of Kor. The Overland is where the landmasses float in the air, only traversed by airships. Kor is a vast world to the point where there are still places yet to be discovered. The world of Kor is quite large, roughly larger than earth. There are 5 main continents: Cherreny (North), Aka Hóng (South), Ao Lán Sè (East), Ivor (West), and Kítrinos (Center).

The World’s currency is “Moolah”.

Ivor (Short for Ivory, meaning White): A more rustic and a western touch to it when it comes to most of their cities and towns.

Frequent rain falls in the mainland, nourishing the rainforests and the exotic plants that grow there.

Chernyy (черный: Russian for Black): Is one of the larger continents, and most of it is made of mountainous or hilly areas. Unlike Ao Lan Se and Aka Hong, which are located in the west and south, respectively, where the climate is warmer, Cherreny is located on the northern boundaries of the world where the temperature is cooler. It is so cold in that area that snow falls constantly. The harsh snow that blows down from the mountain’s peaks not only makes the place very cold but makes the walking by foot or mount a perilous quest. Cities and towns are completely covered in snow, and creatures who live nearby have had to adapt to the climate. But underneath the cold blanket of snow lies the warmth of the Kingdom and it’s people. There are also some hidden volcano underground that have made hot springs that the Kingdom prides itself on.

Ao Lan Se (Ao (Japanese): Blue) (Lan Se (Chinese): Blue): The eastern content is the least populated and the region with the most mountain ranges and forests. While it isn’t cold like Cherreny, it does have the largest mountain in the world with a snowy peak. While their aren’t many big cities, there are several villages and temples in the mountains and highlands. It’s the perfect place for martial artists to travel and train at. This region is also full of sacred culture and secrets. The weather is slightly cool with a mix of mist and fog surrounding the mountains, leaving an air of mystery throughout the area.
