Smaksmo Ogusp

Smaksmo Ogusp (also "The Land of Portent" in the common tongue) is a world generated by the game Dwarf Fortress.

## Geography

    The surface of Smaksmo Ogusp is composed of two primary features: The Poetic ocean, a planet-encompassing body of water and The Mortified Land, which is the planet's land mass. Additionally, there are numerous large and small islands.

### Oceans

Forty-three percent of the surface of Smaksmo Ogusp is water. Little is known of what lies beneath. There are also two large inland seas: The Humorous Water to the north and The Waters of Splashing in the South.

### Continents

The land surface of Smaksmo Ogusp consists of one contiguous continent called The Mortified Land. The majority of the continent is flat and covered in forest. There are several large mountain ranges across the surface. The northernmost reaches are frozen wastes called The Frost of Exaltation. The ice covers several major and minor mountain ranges and features several glaciers.

### Vulcanism

Volcanic activity is relatively minor, with only four percent of the planet having any volcanic activity at all. All volcanoes can be found in the larger mountain ranges that cross the planet. The same tectonic activity that pushes the land masses up into mountains also raises the magma table up toward the surface.

## Climate

The climate of Smaksmo Ogusp is generally fair and well-suited to sustaining life. Of the planet's land mass, six percent is desert, twenty-six percent is grassland, and fifty-three percent is forest. The remaining fifteen percent of the surface consists of several mountain ranges above the tree line. The deserts are primarily in the rainshadows of the larger mountain ranges, to the north and east of the peaks.

## Inhabitants

Smaksmo Ogusp is home to four primary races: Dwarves, Goblins, Humans, and Elves. In addition, there are numerous other creatures that inhabit this world both above and below the surface, including demons, gods, were-creatures, vampires, animals, and the occasional ancient megabeast. In all, there are 712 different races of which each living creature is a part. Many are mundane, such as the race of Beavers or the race of Gorillas. There are also many more interesting races, such as the Glasseyes, Hadrosaurid Devils, Plump Helmet Men, and the Shreiking Horrors.
