Ludus

Ludus is a planet in the Lux System. It is home to a large number of prominent Characters as well as the setting for nearly every story.
==Geography==
Ludus is water-rich, with over 75% of the planet's surface being covered by oceans and other bodies of water. The remaining surface of landmass consists of a wide variety of surface biomes. In most cultures native to Ludus, the planet's land is considered to be divided into several distinct continents and sub-continents.
===Okto-Gredile===
Okto-Gredile is the largest continent of Ludus, sprawling a vast distance across the planet's vertical axis. Although it is one contiguous landmass, the continent is often referred to as three distinct sub-continents, which are Oktov, North Gredile, and South Gredile. Oktov is separated from Gredile by the large mountain range to the north, and the two halves of Gredile are roughly delineated by the isthmus formed by the large bay near the equator. 
Oktov is mostly covered by a frigid tundra, which is moderately forested to the west, and becomes more sparse and flat toward the east. Despite its inhospitable climate, Oktov is home to Universe City, the most densely populated settlement on the planet.
A large portion of North Gredile is covered by arid biomes, with a large desert rivaling those that comprise the majority of Mavus. Most of the sub-continent's population is concentrated near waterfronts, such as the central oasis, or the small island in the strait between North Gredile and the western peninsula of Faeric.
South Gredile is largely temperate and contains a wide variety of biomes, including grasslands, forests, groves, and hills, as well as a large lake near the south. The sub-continent is also home to the vast majority of Gridmasks, who are distributed among various city-state like settlements such as Steckenburg. 
===Faeric===
A tropical continent home to the fabled Wonder Jungle, the northeast of this land is heavily forested and is home to some of the largest trees on Ludus.
The islands to the southeast of the continent between it and Mavus are the ruins of a castle that was home to the Isles dragonkin family. 
===Helc===
===Auzos===
===Mavus===
Originally a fragment of another planet, which crashed into the ocean of Ludus-Prime.
===Pata===
Pata is an island of moderate size located far to the east of Gredile. Beaches line much of its coast, while temperate forests can be found further inland. Dendreads make their home on this island and occasionally trade with visitors.

Ludus-Prime, known by some as Ludus (or SRWorld) is a planet that orbits in the Lux System, in the Ludus section of the Prism. Ludus-Prime is home to a brilliant array of plant and animal life. Ludus-Prime was originally created by Leviathan, using part of Proto-Ludus for the whole planet. It was initially populated by Dragons, though they became mostly extinct after the Zeronius invasion. Later, gridmasks from the planet Storge-Prime were sent to populate the now-barren planet.
Ludus originally had one moon created by Leviathan, which was named Invidia. However, this moon was destroyed during the Zeronius invasion.
Later, a moon was created by Hankvl. This moon has Hankvl's symbol on it, and appears like a "regular moon". It is known simply as "the moon" by most, though it has been given a number of other names, as well (including Luna, Leviathan, Berangaria, Caledonia, etc.). It is home to a variety of strange creatures. It is normally a light grey colour, though some reports detail it as emanating with a . Gridmasks have visited this moon as of -50 ADC.
Later, a moon-like satellite was created and launched by the Ludusian government, dubbed , after the believed deity creator of the universe. This satellite was created to take images from a bird's eye view of the main continent. It has a large red eye-like circle that is always hovering over the Gredile, and is made of dark greyish-green metals. In the Timeline, this is replaced with the , a satellite made by the Nazcans that is meant to spy on rebels, and that looks like a large Nazcan eye.
During the Reckoning, the launched into orbit as another satellite of Ludus-Prime.

===LDZX Headquarters Building===
The center of operations for LDZX. Is said to have over 77 floors from the ground floor, along with at least 77 secret floors underground. For some reason, the insides of the building commonly seem to inexplicably shift, though no one seems to question it.
===Steckenberg===
 Steckenberg (Stickscastle in German) is a city that spans from Castle to Seaside. Before the arrival of the first batch of Fan-Ballers, their technology was reminiscent of the 1960s. Many old buildings are scattered across the forested landscape. Small huts belonging to fishermen are omnipresent along the sea bay where the Submarine stages are housed. LDZX is situated in the far west side of the city, in the middle of the forest. Jast lives in here.
Originally, Steckenberg was only an extension of the Castle, which was far larger than it is now. The walls collapsed due to earthquakes caused by the earth demon, Koala, about 500 years ago. A large part of the inhabitants were killed by invasive spores in the air coming from the Mist Grove. Over the years, the city recovered a bit. However, about 100 years ago, a powerful necromancer arrived and rose an entire graveyard worth of dead bodies to take over the castle. He himself died about 50 years ago, only to be risen by his own creation, the Castle Entrance boss. He ruled the castle as the Castle Boss until recently, when a band of four ranger adventurers defeated him on their trek through the entire world.
