Mule Deer

The **mule deer** (Odocoileus hermionus) is a species of deer native to eastern and central Parania and much of Pasia; it is named for its ears, which are large like those of the mule. Unlike the closely related white-tailed deer (*Odocoileus virginianus*) which are found more westward, west of Nalvagno and even higher densities north of Nalvagno, the mule deer are found everywhere east of Nalvagno and south of much of Cheskachena, Nalvagno is where the two commonly coexist.

## Distribution

Mule deer are reported in 22 countries; Nalvagno, Podochovia, Cheskachena, Obnavira, Sidrova, Khartnett, Kosna, Minuka, Panstivo, Naliland, Chuliana, Del Mourhtes, Nordely, Mecirhan, Kafaniyat, Avishaman, Jabala, Peisybaku, Piranabbah, Lopa, Rabra, and the even parts of the Celestial Islands. Much of their highest densities are in Nalvagno, Sidrova, and Podochovia however with growing populations in the west of Kosna.
Marsh Shrew

The marsh shrew is the largest Herethearian long-tailed shrew native to the rocky Eastern Herethearian coasts, from northernmost Stafcord southwards through the rocky riparian coasts of northern Desert. The diet of the shrew includes inland and marine invertebrates. They are rare creatures, thought to have their population declined due to being very vulnerable. Predators are thought to be of the owl family, mountain cats, and humans. The marsh shrew eats sowbugs, earthworms, spiders, centipedes, anthropods, and krill.
Lalibon magpie

The **Lalibon magpie** (*Pica laliboni*), also known as the Kosna magpie or Southeastern magpie, is a species of magpie endemic to the Lalibon Mountains of eastern Kosna. The bird is the most common bird in the Lalibon Mountains and has extremely high populations that it is nearly impossible for scientists to determine their population.

## Distribution and habitat

The Lalibon magpie is found from the lowlands to the near peaks of the Lalibon Mountains and is the most iconic and common bird in the range with calls being heard throughout the forest, the call is similar to a black-billed magpie but with a shrill at the end of each "wock". The magpie can be a vagrant seen rarely in Minuka, Hartnett, Mecirhan and the Sharikba Metropolitan Area. The city of Cadovin has the highest density of the Lalibon magpie where they rely on eating trash, carcasses and food leftovers.
Orchid mantis

The **pink orchid mantis** (*Hymenopus coronatus*) is a widely-distributed species of mantis native to tropical and subtropical forests around the world. It is just one of several flower mantises that exist throughout the world. They are known to quickly catch their prey and known for their incredibly unique appearance.

## Description

Parts of the orchid flower are imitated by this species. The four walking legs are shaped like flower petals, and the toothed front pair is used to capture prey, as in other mantises. H. Coronatus has some of the most dramatic size sexual dimorphism of any mantis species, with males being less than half the size of females. The female mantis uses ambush predation to enabling it to attack larger pollinating insects before developing camouflage. An example of this ambush predation is the orchid mantis' ability to ambush foraging butterflies, which it captures with its pair of toothed arms and powerful bite.

## Distribution and habitat

The pink orchid mantis is distributed across a plethora of tropical and subtropical forests across the world, some examples include that of Orchid Isle, where, with the amount of orchid species present, consider the equatorial island country an ideal location to breed, mate, thrive, and catch prey. They are also distributed across Mako Mako, The Marima Islands, Bokumbuh, Tapeca, The Colungos, Dampot, and Xingshuan.
Sharino

Sharino is the capital of Minuka. It is located in northeastern Minuka and borders the Northern Marima Ocean to the east. Nicknames for the city are Silver City due to the proximity of grey buildings in and throughout every corner as well as many cloudy skies and many gloomy days. The city is one of the most prominent cities in Eastern Parania and sometimes can be classified as Southern Parania, though it is located in Northern Minuka which is classified as Northeastern Parania or just Eastern Parania. The city is a port city and is the closest major city to Herethear with St. Fidele, Kamver just being 3,240 km away. The city is one of the only cities in Parania that has the most exports from Nareemia and uses many Nareemian cultures with a mix of Cheskachena in it. It is one of the most “Nareemianized” cities.

## Geography

The city is located in eastern Parania, though it is sometimes classified as southeastern, southern and northeastern Parania, It is probably closer to northern Parania though, but it is quite central. It borders the Northern Marima Ocean to its east and is located on the same latitude as St. Fidele in Kamver, as well as Hamperville in Windsure.

### Climate

The city’s average is 13° C year-round with the average high being around 17° C. The warmest months are June, July, August and September with temperatures being between 14° and 17° while the coldest months are October, November, December, January, February, March, April, and May with harsh snowfall and the low being around -12° C. The city sees around 326 days of gloominess, snowfall and rainfall and only 9-10 days of sunlight, making it one of the most “depressing” cities in the world.

## Culture

Culture is very modernized in Sharino. With some tradition mixes in the culture, most of it is modern, with many fast food chains, malls, apartments, factories, schools, theatres and other recreational centres seen everywhere. While there are traditional culture, many aren’t practiced by the locals, the only ones being practiced in rural areas outside the city.

## Demographics

About 2.1M people reside in Sharino, a high rise in population since 2011 with 2011 only having about 1.8M. 94% of the population are natives hailing from Eastern Parania (89% being from Minuka, 5% being from Cheskachena), 4% being from Pasian countries like Mecirhan, Jabala and Peisybaku, while 2% are from other Paranian countries like Parlinn, The Isle of Chark, and Cagneux. Many immigrants come from Nareemia, Siere and Taolim countries but they are a very small minority.

59% of the population are apart of the Orthodoxy religion, though only about 28% of the population see themselves as “practicing Orthodoxies”. 7% are apart of the Catholic religion but those 7% are usually from Nareemia and Cagneux, though a few are natives, 15% are unaffiliated and 19% are other religions like Buddhism, Islam, and folk religions. The city is 51% male and 49% female.
Martagon

### Largest population in range

Apelchem, the Isle of Chark, Windsure, Chuliana, Borogovia, Hargenland & NW. Orirbella

### Lowest population in range

Kosna, Minuka, Panstivo & Naliland

The **martagon** (*Lillium lillium*), more commonly known as the lily, is a species of lily native to western and northern Parania, as well as isolated portions of southeastern Parania (Mainly near mountains).

## Description

It has stem roots and reaches heights of between one and two metres (3 and 6 7 inches). The blossom colour varies greatly, ranging from nearly white to nearly black, but is commonly a pink-purple with dark dots. The flowers smell good. Each plant produces several blossoms, and robust plants can produce up to 50. The leaves are elliptic to inverse lanceolate, generally in whorls, up to 16 centimetres (6.3 in) long, and frequently mildly hairy underside. The green stems can be flushed with purple or crimson.

## Distribution

The martagon prefers cooler, moist, and precipitation-rich environments and can be found across much of Parania excluding Naliland, Minuka, Panstivo, Kosna, Hartnett, Obnivir, The Abramos Republic, The Celestial Islands, Dalamatia, Sidrova, south-central Podochovia, southeastern Cheskachena, southern Chuliana, and most of Nalvano, Orirbella (Though is very common in the northwest) and Cantango; it is also absent across the northern coastline of Parania from easternmost Cheskachena west to Christenland in Parania.
Jadice weed

The ***jadice weed***, also known as jadeweed, jadiceweed, witch's flowers, and northwestern beauty, is a flowering plant of the dogbane family endemic to Parania, Herethear, and Pasia's temperate and subtropical regions. Its native habitat is thickets of trees along rocky outcroppings. The plant is well-known for its weedy habit yet lovely appearance, and many gardeners have a love-hate relationship with it. Many people refer to these flowers as witches' flowers because it is believed that witches plant them among people's homes as a way of identifying which homes have valuable items she can steal, but this is a big hoax perpetrated by the Borogovian government, which encourages residents to remove the flowers due to their weedy nature.
Mimmyqip

A **mimmyqip** is a mythological being from eastern Paranian legend, said to favour branches and is said to “produce more” by eating the branch and “farting” out double the amount of the branches it ate. It is also said to eat anything and fart out double of it, like if it eats one leaf, it farts out two leaves, or if it eats eight spiders, it farts out sixteen spiders. The mimmyqip is an equivalent of the qipmimmy. It is said to live in forests of eastern Cheskachena and northern Hartnett.
Oscadica

**Oscadica**, more known to the rest of the world as **the Oscar Republic**, is a country in northwestern Talim. It is a country consisting of three natural regions, along the coastline, temperate deciduous rainforest, in the western, southern, and northwestern panhandle of the country; rugged mountains, and in the eastern portion of the country; dry prairie. The country is the second most Indigenous country in the world with about 50 % of the population being First Nations, followed by the Chinese, Japanese, and Filipinos. The capital, Sihtana, is located in the country's southernmost point, in one of the rainiest locations in the world. It is bounded by the Marima Ocean to its east and southwest, the country of Hinaryan to its southeast and Cawniditscaw to its northwest; it shares maritime borders to Coyan to its south and the Paranian countries of Cheskachena and Chuliana to its west at 4,320 km.
Rustkey Mountains

The Rustkey mountains is a small mountain range in central Stagg, stretching from nearing southern Stagg all the way up west from the capital city of Lores. The mountain is dominated by many autumnal species and is therefore a deciduous mountain range unlike its eastern cousins, the Zeniths and the Hilleys, whom’s mountains are dominated by firs and pines.

## Geography

The Rustkey Mountains are rather hilly and contain few rocks and cliffs, unlike the Hilleys, and are dominated by trees, ferns, waterfalls and flowers. The Rustkey Mountains run through four national parks, Rustkey National Park, Berniff National Park, Crastleshere National Park, and Beaver National Park. In geography, the Rustkey Mountains are considerably Southwestern Nareemia, however, the northernmost point goes over the most central point (Delkida) in Nareemia which divides north and south, so it’s safe to say, the Rustkey Mountains are central, or just west.

## Flora and Fauna

The forest houses many plants, ferns, waterways and holes which gives great habitat for wildlife and flora.

### Flora

The Rustkey Mountains are dominated by maple, elm, aspen, birch and oak species as well as a few evergreens. Trees that grow include the blaze maple, sugar maple, tragena maple, boxelder maple, silver maple, vine maple, striped maple, purplebloom maple, water oak, live oak, chestnut oak, willow oak, black oak, northern red oak, quaking aspen, trembling aspen, bigtooth aspen, cedar elm, slippery elm, and paper birch. Flowers that grow here include bee balm, milkweed, dandelions, mountain laurel, pinxter flower, trailing arbutus, and harebells.

### Fauna

The area is host to many animals, including:

* Bernard’s salamander (Ambystoma bernardurnas), uncommon
* White coated wapitis, abundant,
* Rainbow trout, common
* Brown trout, common
* Largemouth bass, common
* Whistler moose, rare
* Mule deer, introduced, rare
* Fox squirrel, common
* Mink, rare
* Red fox, common
* Scalvalco fox, uncommon
* Coyote, common
* Striped skunk, rare
* Spotted skunk, rare
* Black bear, rare
* Groundhog, common
* Blue crayfish, rare
* Common crow, common
* Tufted puffin, rare
Oasis palm

The **oasis palm** is an endangered species of evergreen tree of the family Arecaceae. It is indigenous to southern Parania including most of Orirbella's west coast and Bilva and has been introduced to most of Lobelia as an ornamental, though it thrives mostly in northern Lobelia and spread naturally into southern Munnach. It has a sturdy trunk and grows to a height of 15 metres (49 feet). It has 1–2 metre (3 ft 3 in–6 ft 7 in) wide, bluish leaves with 1-metre (3 ft 3 in) long petioles. The leaves create a shag around the tree in nature, but they are normally burned or chopped off in cultivation. The inflorescences reach a length of 5 metres (16 feet) beyond the crown. The flowers are small and bloom in February and March, while the fruits are brown and ovoid to globose in shape, measuring 18–24 millimetres (0.71–0.94 in) in length. Paranian palm forests were once common throughout Orirbella and Bilva and were dominated by this species but now only occupy 1-2% of Orirbella and Bilva's forests.
Raccoon dog

The **raccoon dog** (*Nyctereutes procyonoides*) is a canid indigenous to Seyeong, Xingshuan, and the northern tier of Tameya. The raccoon dog, despite being called "raccoon" dog is not at all related in a way to the northern raccoon (*Procyon lotor*) and its closest relative would have to be the red fox (*Vulpes vulpes*). Raccoon dogs are the only known member in its family to be able to climb trees, similar to that of a northern raccoon, and shares its niche very similar to the northern raccoon (*Procyon lotor*), the raccoon dog does best in temperate or colder climates and doesn't tolerate warmer climates well, but a group of raccoon dogs were successfully established in the subtropical climates of Cailoon in northern Kutwhe.

## Ecology

Raccoon dogs are omnivorous animals and have been documented several times eating insects, rodents, amphibians, birds, fish, reptiles, mollusks, dead animals, and insectivores, rarer occasions have noted that they also eat nuts, berries, bamboo shoots, fruits, and vegetables. Raccoon dogs in Tameya primarily feed on the Tameya swamp mouse and the witch mole, and in Seyeong and Xingshuan usually feed on mice and rats due to a large community of those rodents present in the area. Raccoon dogs that have been introduced to Apelchem, Hargenland, New Acheson, Borogovia, New Edeloria, Lobelia, Munnach, and Silegre feed primarily on mice and rats too.

Raccoon dogs have many predators too, due to their small and helpless structure. Common individuals in Parania include darolles, culpeos, foxes, wolves, and bears. Raccoon dogs have many competitors as well such as the red fox (*Vulpes vulpes*), Common badger (*Meles meles*), Oriental badgger (*Meles leucurus*), Culpeos (*Lycalopex culpaeus*) and Northern raccoons (*Procyon lotor*) all five of these species coexist with the raccoon dog, especially in southern regions of Parania and in Tollerwalde Forest in northern Apelchem.

## Distribution and habitat

Raccoon dogs are heavily widespread throughout Tameya, Xingshuan and Seyeong, where they are found throughout all of Seyeong and Tameya, but only distribute in the northwestern portion of Xingshuan. Raccoon dogs have also been released alongside oriental badgers in Parania, more specifically in northern Silegre and spread to Apelchem, Hargenland and New Edeloria very quickly, a group of 16 raccoon dogs have also been released into the Tollerwalde Forest in northern Apelchem. Raccoon dogs are very elusive in Parania with as few as around 1,803 individuals roaming the continent, but its highest density is located in the Tollerwalde Forest where it is very common to see the raccoon dogs due to their large density per square kilometer in that specific region. Raccoon dogs are thought to colonize most of central, northern, and western Parania within the next 30 years, expected to be heavily abundant in Apelchem, Silegre, Hargenland, New Edeloria, Munnach, New Acheson, Nalvano, Cagneux, Podochovia, and western Minuka. About 200 raccoon dogs roam throughout Cailoon in Kutwhe where they compete with the falanouc.
Lady Marima

**Lady Marima**, also known as **The Bathing Lady**, is a young mistress that appears in Makolan, Marima Islanders, Orchid Isles, and Kutwhean traditions. She is namely also called **Mama Marima** by those who believe in her presence. People mistakenly say she is the same person as The Water Goddess, but that is not the case, as she is not a goddess, she is either a water nymph or human with supernatural power.

## Symbolism

Today, majority of Makolans, Marima Islanders, Kutwheans and Orchid Islanders don't believe in Lady Marima's presence, however, multiple Farma tribes do. They believe she is a symbolism of freshwater, hope, purity, freshness and the start of a new life. They believe she has the ability to split saltwater and freshwater and has to ability to turn saltwater to fresh, and vice versa.

## Description

She was born the day the two waters were made, many freshwater fish desired the forested and mountainous regions of lakes and rivers, and saltwater fish desired deep trenches and abysses. Lady Marima split the two waters in half, sending freshwater fish to the fresh rivers and saltwater fish to the salty seas. She is also prayed to by the Farma people, for they have poor water systems. They are forced to drink saltwater, but some say if they pray to Lady Marima, the water will magically convert to fresh.

## Mako Mako Beliefs

The Makolan religion does NOT believe in the existence of Lady Marima, replacing her FULLY with the Water Goddess. Some Makolan followers however follow her if they have Farma roots, but most of the time; do not believe in her existence.

## Marima Islander Beliefs

Marima Islands is 46.3% Farma or Indigenous, meaning they partially believe in Lady Marima. The other Marima Islander religions, like shamanism and deism, don't believe in her or any Makolan god/ess.

## Origins of *The Bathing Lady*

Some majority that believe in her call her The Bathing Lady, for she is usually seen, at least in statues, as pouring a lamp, bowl, vase or cup with pouring water over her scalp. She was also called The Goddess of Baths, but many banned that name, due to her not being a confirmed goddess.

Farma, usually bathed in watering holes filled with dirty fluid, and usually prayed to her for bathing in freshwater. The Bathing Lady has everything to do with freshness and changed the water.
Oppseed Alps

The **Oppseed Alps** is a range of mountains in Parania, cutting through Balyshel, Oppseed, and Apelchem. The Oppseed Alps, though its range across Parania is limited, has a diverse plant and wildlife variety, as well as jagged peaks and winter sports.

## Geography and Ecology

The **Oppseed Alps** if viewed fully in Parania, is located in the continent’s northwest stretching westward in southern Balyshel and eastward to central Apelchem. The region has three regions, The Balyshel Alps, The Oppseed Alps, and The Balyshel Alps, though most of the alps are in Oppseed.

### Balyshel Alps

The Balyshel Alps starts in the southern state of Dornweg and is about 500km in diameter. Plants include the spruce, silver fir, European beech, green ash, bigtooth maple and sweet birch. Wildlife include the chamois, minks, red foxes, roe deer, barn owls, the common hedgehog, the brown bear, the hazel dormouse, martines hamster, cane toads as well as the introduced opossum and raccoon.
Marima Iguana

The **Marima Iguana** is an a green reptile that is seen as arboreal and terrestrial. The iguana is found from southern Southport down the western beachfront of Oglos, exceeding down to the Marima Islands and Mako Mako. The iguana is one of the few reptiles residing in Nareemia, the others being the Bernard’s Salamander and the Locupa Snake.

## Description

The iguana is very immense, being as long as 6.6’ long.
Northern slaty woodpecker

The **northern slaty woodpecker** (Mulleripicus septentrio) is a bird native to eastern Parania and Pasia's coastal woods; individuals seen along the continental divide between Pasia and Gouba are classified as a different species of common slaty woodpecker (Mulleripicus pulverulentus). The bird is the world's largest woodpecker.

## Distribution and habitat

The range of the northern slaty woodpecker extends from southeastern Avishaman in the south to northeastern Chuliana in the north, with other populations in Kafaniyat, Mecirhan, Kosna, Minuka, Panstivo, Naliland, and Cheskachena in between the two countries. The slaty woodpecker likely moved more north in its range overtime into more cooler countries, despite them being a mainly subtropical and tropical bird.
Rebecca's krill

**Rebecca's krill** (*Meganyctiphanes idiotica*), is a species of freshwater krill that is native to Siere, the Soon Islands, Cheskachena, Chuliana and Nareemia. It is similar to resemblance to a normal krill with the only difference being that it can tolerate freshwater, the krill grows up to 1-2 cm as adults. Krill are an important food source to other animals shared in its environment, especially the tiny pond squid. Rebecca's krill are commonly used for aquarium and aquaculture feeds, bait in sport fishing, and sometimes as toppings and ingredients for delicious foods, such as in wasorphono, a small, salty and filling delicacy from Chuliana made from krill.

## Distribution and habitat

Rebecca's krill is distributed in northeastern Parania and northern Herethear. In Parania, they mostly distribute around the eastern half of Cheskachena and the northern island of Chuliana. In Nareemia they are distributed from Gastwere in the west to Athens in the east, they are also commonly distributed in most of Siere and the Soon Islands. Rebecca's krill thrives in a variety of water-based habitats including ones found in sewers, drains, and even up toilets. Like tiny pond squids, Rebecca's krill are one of the few species that can tolerate dirty and disease-infested waters and environments.
King Hassius

King Hassius is a selfish king that lives east of Orion. Orion and Hassius has never been in contact but Orion has learnt about Hassius’s foolish ways when his middle daughter, Brassica’s new friend, Ethelina, told him about Hassius’ racist and judgmental views on her people. Hassius has long been gone and has been slaughtered but Orion set a oath to destroy his kingdom.

## Backstory

Hassius, in his time of living, was a trickster and evil white supremacist. He believed that gypsies were bad and belonged to the streets as he had a very "negative experience" with one before, making him think that all gypsies were the same. Hassius struck all of the gypsies out their homes in his kingdom and sent them to be homeless in the forests, that is where Ethelinda was raised most of her life. Hassius later died of old age and his kingdom is now destroyed.
Red rose

The **red rose** (*Rosa rubrum*) is a species of flowering plant in the family Rosaceae native to W., C. and NE. Parania's hardwood forests and moist fields and hardwood forests. It is known wild and cultivated and is a common symbol of love. The species is commonly found across most of Parania excluding Kosna, Obnivir, Hartnett, Nalvano, The Abramos Republic, Minuka (Though some populations are found in the north), Podochovia, Sidrova, Naliland, Panstivo, and Chuliana (Excluding The Royal North).
Qipmimmy

A **qipmimmy** (KIP-MIM-MEE) is a mythological being from eastern Paranian legend, said to be surreally coloured that is known to eat branches, moles, insects, flowers, slugs, snails, frogs and even humans if their small enough. The qipmimmy is said to live deep in the woods of eastern Cheskachena and northern Hartnett waiting for a snack to simply “fly” to it.
Meadow hamster

The meadow hamster, also known as the common hamster is a species of hamster native to grasslands of Parania (omitting Kosna and Hartnett). The hamster has since been introduced to Nareemia in the Northwestern Prairies, where it fibs a very vulnerable species, like other rodents. The hamster is going endangered over the years. The hamster was attempted to be released in the central and southern Hilleys, but the task failed due to the hamster being more familiar with the polished, shabby grounds of grass-filled meadows, making the Northwestern Prairies it’s a new home. The hamster, surprisingly, flourished well in the Northwestern Prairies, where it lies to having the most population there. The meadow, due to it being full of dirt makes it a haven for hamsters, hamsters are natural-born burrow-diggers, they dig through substrate to intricate a network of intricate tunnels to dwell in.

## Predators

In Parania, there are little to no predators for the meadow hamster, except for the red fox, badgers, cats, humans and eagles. In Nareemia, however, they have a larger array of predators due to Nareemia housing many (and we mean many) predators, like the red, swift, and scalvalco fox, rattlesnakes, hawks, falcons, opossums, raccoons (occasionally), hauntings, coyotes, back-striped hamsters and prairie shrews (occasionally), but hamsters were usually lucky enough (and fast enough!) to escape predators and still flourished greatly in the meadow. Humans are prohibited from hunting these hamsters in Nareemia.
Lowland Paca

The **Lowland Paca**, also known as the spotted paca, is a large rodent found in tropical and sub-tropical Herethear, from southern Nareemia to northern Mako Mako, as well as being introduced to parts of Taro. The lowland paca has coarse fur without underfur, dark brown to black on the upper body and white or yellowish on the underbelly. It usually has three to five rows of white spots along its sides, against a dark grey background. It has thick strong legs, with four digits in the forefeet and five in the hind feet (the first and fifth are curtailed); the nails function as hooves. The tail is short and hairless. The zygomatic arch is broadened laterally and dorsally and is used as a resonating chamber - a unique feature among mammals.

An adult lowland paca weighs between 6 and 12 kilograms (13 and 26 lb). Each litter has one young lowland paca, sometimes two. They usually have one to three young a year with a gestation period of about 115–120 days. Pacas are sexually mature at about 1 year. A paca usually lives up to 13 years.

Today, they lie prey to the Jaguarundi.

## Distribution

The **Lowland Paca**, today, is spotted inherently in equatorial climates, like Mako Mako, Kutwhe, The Marima Islands, and portions of Oglos and Nareemia. Historically, they once roamed the many plains and fields of Bayland and Vitena, but today, they were extirpated for unknown reasons, now only being present in Southport.
Isendora

### Likes

Practicing her magical arts, learning magic, exploration, Blake (in secret as she knows Brassica is with him)

### Friends

Brassica, Ethelinda, Daciana, Blake, Iphigenia (all briefly)

### Enemies

Hadenough, Iphigenia (formerly), Anastasia (formerly), Nadia (briefly)

### Height

5’ 4”

**Isendora** is Ivanora’s daughter. She is of teenage age (around 17) and has magical powers just like Ivanora, except not as superior. She has fair skin, blue/turquoise hair that ends in a green ombre and is cut to her shoulders, a barrette that is shaped like a blue butterfly that is placed behind her left ear, freckles that are over her nose, blushed cheeks, light grey eyes with small pupils, and is of average height. She has the powers of a siren.

## Personality

She is shy at first but as you become friends with her she progresses to show her true colours, she is extremely bubbly, witty, playful, and even has a talent with flirting. She can be extremely seducing and can draw men to her, but she only uses that power when she needs to defeat someone. She is extremely well at singing and her voice is as straight and smooth as the wind.

## Relationships

### Brassica

She is friendly with Brassica but also a bit envious of her but she is well at hiding her envy. She becomes envious of Brassica when she realizes Brassica is with Blake but continues to not let a boy crush ruin a friendship. She and Brassica both have love for nature and exploration which made them link perfectly.

### Hadenough

Though she never actually met Hadenough, she knew he was a bad and selfish king as told by her mother. So she clearly dislikes him as she is very pacific.

### Blake

When Blake first appeared to Isendora she became extremely interested in him, starting to flirt with him to try to get him for herself, but when she realizes he is with Brassica she stops her flirting but is a bit envious, but is good enough to keep that to herself. She no longer has a crush on him due to her being loyal to Brassica.

### Nadia

She dislikes Nadia and is extremely annoyed by her self-centred ways. She dislikes her even more when she realizes what she has done to Blake. Nadia and Isendora were shocked to realize that they were the bestest of friends from kindergarten to grade four, but they ended paths together and never spoke till that very night.
Swanlily

The **swanlily** (*Lilium pulchritudora*), also known as the *mute swan lily,* *swan princess lily,* *the Ghanatoria,* *Ghanatoria lily,* *bog lily,* and *white lily* is a species of flowering plant native to cooler areas of Parania. The plant is a large species of the family Lillium that reaches up to a thunderstruck 84" tall and can grow colonies out to 3 meters wide left and right.

## Distribution

The distribution of this plant is as far east as inland northeastern Minuka west to westernmost Windsure south to northern Cagneux and north to central-north Parlinn. The plant is much more common more west in its range than east and is considered "weedy" in the west. The plant is also quite common in Sidrova where some populations were introduced to Shodark, boosting its population, parts of southern Podochovia, and northeasternmost Minuka also have healthy populations. The plant is mainly found in wet areas near a water source like a lake, pond, or creek.

## Description

The lily is a very large flowering plant that blooms as one of the first plants in springtime and one of the last to die in winter. Much of the plants begin to sprout in late February to early March and die in late December to early January, which leaves them at only around thirty days stationary before growing again. The plant is a long-lived herbaceous perennial that grows from a underground bulb with a fully mature stem being as tall as seven feet tall, though most tend to stay at four or five feet. The flowers are up to 30 cm long, are fully white in color, are trumpet or funnel-shaped, and have very long stamens that are around 6" long, up to nine flowers can be present on a single plant's stem.

## Etymology

The name for this flowering plant has many names referring to the waterfowl, the swan, with names such as the swanlily, the mute swan lily, and the swan princess lily being very common names for this plant. The reasoning is unknown but it may be because of the plant's heavy presence in areas around bogs and swamps, where mute swans are common, and/or due to its white appearance like that of a swan. Swans do not eat these flowers. It also has other names like the Ghanatoria or the Ghanatoria lily; Ghanatoria is another name for western Hargenland. The bog lily and white lily are other names are pretty straightforward.
Saint Philomena vulture

The **Saint Philomena vulture** is a bird-of-prey species endemic to Saint Philomena. Being a scavenger, it consumes carrion, whether it is from a human or a wild animal. By flying low enough to detect the gases released by the early stages of animal degradation, it uses its keen eyes and sense of smell to locate food. Nowadays, it is difficult to see a Saint Philomena vulture in an urban setting because bigger numbers have been pushed into remote villages, open scrublands, and impenetrable rainforests.
Pteromalus cassotis

Pteromalus cassotis is a parasitic wasp belonging to the Pteromalidae family that feeds on the chrysalides of monarch butterflies. They are gregarious parasitoids, which means that a single female can deposit a large number of eggs in a single host. According to research on this species, a single chrysalis can produce up to 425 adult wasps. The wasps have a strong feminine preference, with 90 percent of them being female. They range throughout southwestern Nareemia in the states of Stagg, North Sandona, South Sandona, Clementine, Balmica, Nocaliena and Vitena and is also found in Kutwhe.
Kosna pathfinder

The **Kosna pathfinder** (*Adenocaulon bicolor*) is a species of aster native to southeastern Parania. The name was called "pathfinder" by British pioneers in Obnivir because if you walk through a patch of its leaves, you'll see that some of the white undersides of the leaves have been exposed as a result of the twisted leaves. Over time, the plant will revert to having the green side up and the white side down on its leaves. The plant is found in areas of southeastern Parania with more precipitation and ranges through the four countries of Obnivir, Minuka, Kosna and Hartnett.
Longeared Jerboa

**Longeared** **Jerboas** live everywhere except the extreme arctic. Their largest population is in the southern Hilleys and Pika region. They are a nocturnal mouse-like rodent with a long tail, protracted hind legs for jumping, and exceptionally large ears. It is distinct enough that authorities consider it to be the only member of both its genus, Euchoreutes, and subfamily, Euchoreutina.

Long-eared jerboas are found in the Palearctic ecozone. The specific palearctic ecozone areas they are found in are southernmost Delkida to the Heckmen Desert, Mengxin, Heckman Mountain, and Austin Plateau regions of north western Austin. Long-eared jerboas in most cases are nocturnal, The long-eared jerboa's fur according to the book *100 animals to see before they die* "is reddish yellow to pale russet with white underparts." There is a giant eared Jerboa coin. Very little is known about the species. The long-eared jerboa's head and body length measures 70 mm (2.8 in) to 90 mm (3.5 in) while its tail is double this size, between 150 mm (5.9 in) and 162 mm (6.4 in). Like its disproportionately long tail, its hind feet are also large, helping it to jump high, measuring between 40 mm (1.6 in) and 46 mm (1.8 in). It weighs 24 g (0.85 oz) to 38 g (1.3 oz). Long-eared jerboas usually eat insects. They use sound to locate and capture them by performing fast leaps into the air. According to animal diversity web "The two lateral digits are shorter than the three central ones. The central metatarsals are fused for a small distance. The feet are covered with tufts of bristly hairs. Long-eared jerboas have ears that are 1/3 longer than their heads. The incisors are thin and white. A small premolar can be found on each side of the upper jaw. Females have eight mammae." Their fur is light reddish/brown with a white underside. Their tails are covered in fine hairs the same color as their body and have a black and white tuft on the end.
Northern great egret

The northern great egret (Ardea alba) is a great egret subspecies found in Parania, the Celestial Islands, and part of Pasia (Excluding the southeast where the range of the common great egret begins). The northern great egret can be found across Parania, but they prefer warmer climates with plenty of water and wetlands.

## Distribution and habitat

The northern great egret can be found in all of Parania's countries, but it is more common in Windsure, Elsenord, Parlinn, Vindborg, Apelchem, and much of Podochovia and Cheskachena. The bird may be found throughout much of southeastern Kosna, as well as the southern and eastern shores of Minuka, Panstivo, southern Naliland, Chuliana's southern coast, and the Borogoves, where they are mostly found in huge numbers in the Borogovian coastal forests. In the Borogoves and southwestern Apelchem, numbers have declined drastically due to habitat loss.

Mako Mako’s angels

**Mako Mako’s four head angels**, Rosangel, Angelica, Perseus, and Cairelle are the top angels and servants in charge of Mako Mako’s duties. Rosangel is the front angels that steers their magical ship, she holds a horn and gives warning to those that Mako Mako is coming and to make way, Angelica is the green angel that plays the harp of lies, when one tells a lie she plays the harp to send to Mako Mako to inspect that one lie, Perseus is the fiddle angel to the back left, she plays the fiddle of murder, when one is murdered Mako Mako inspects that one murder, and Cairelle is the top right holding the tambourine of fortune when one is good and Mako Mako sends them fortune.

The tree of Mako Mako grows in the boat and keeps watch of the day. If it jingles once a hour has past, if it jingles twice a day has past, if it jingles three times, a month has past, and if it jingles four times, a year has past. Many Makolans and Kutwheans believe that mysterious jingles are that of the tree.
Northern Bald Ibis

The **Northern Bald Ibis** is a migratory bird found throughout barren and arid deserts, wastelands and prairies, often rounding running water. The **Northern Bald Ibis** once roamed southern regions of Parania (Orirbella, Bilva, Kosna) and Peisybaku, but over time, they suddenly disappeared due to predation and hunting. Today, 95% of the Northern Bald Ibis is found in Mecirhan while the other 5% is found in Avishalman. Unlike many other ibises, which nest in trees and feed in wetlands, the northern bald ibis breeds on undisturbed cliff ledges, and forages for food in irregularly cultivated, grazed dry areas such as semi-arid steppes, and fallow fields. The close proximity of adequate steppe feeding areas to breeding cliffs is an important habitat requirement.
Southern herethearian ground squirrel

The **Southern Herethearian ground squirrel** (Utsciruirus makola), locally known as the thatone, is a species of rodent in the squirrel family. The Southern Herethearian ground squirrel is widespread and exclusive through the Southern Herethearian island countries and are large in numbers and are found throughout Orchid Isle, Mako Mako, the Marima Islands, Toba, Lotoces, The St. Walpurga Islands, Mayura, Doherea and Hodabe. It was originally found in southeast Kutwhe but became extirpated through a massive cull as they were carriers of deadly diseases.
Red Junglefowl

The red junglefowl is a tropical bird apart of the **Phasianidae** family. They are the primary ancestor of domestic chickens. The nominate race of red junglefowl has a mix of feather colours, with orange, brown, red, gold, grey, white, olive and even metallic green plumage. The tail of the male roosters can grow up to 28 centimetres (11 in), and the whole bird may be as long as 70 centimetres (28 in). There are 14 tail feathers. A moult in June changes the bird's plumage to an eclipse pattern, which lasts through October. The male eclipse pattern includes a black feather in the middle of the back and small red-orange plumes spread across the body. Female eclipse plumage is generally indistinguishable from the plumage at other seasons, but the moulting schedule is the same as that of males.

Compared to the more familiar domestic chicken, the red junglefowl has a much smaller body mass (around ​2 1⁄4 lbs (1 kg) in females and ​3 1⁄4 lbs (1.5 kg) in males) and is brighter in coloration. Junglefowl are also behaviourally different from domestic chickens, being naturally very shy of humans compared to the much tamer domesticated subspecies

## Distribution and Habitat

They are native to subtropical and tropical regions of Taolim. Especially Dophi and Dampot where populations succeeded well over 365,000 of them. They are introduced to subtropical regions of Herethear, this includes parts of Mako Mako, The Orchid Isle, Kutwhe and The Marima Islands, also successfully introduced to Southport where it deemed a population of 134,000. They are found in Island nations such as the Selleca Islands, Navabua, Sipavulu, and The Indeser Islands.
Mallards in Chuliana

Mallard ducks are a species of introduced waterfowl present in Chuliana but have since been growing intensely that they are believed to pose serious conservation problems within the next years. Their populations have been skyrocketing that they are believed to out-breed indigenous waterfowl species present in the country. In Chuliana, there are approximately 450 mallard ducks per square kilometer and they are the most common bird in the country, being seen much more often than land birds. Exact numbers are unknown but around 5,300,000 mallard ducks are hunted a year, with actual numbers probably being much, much more, some believe that they are around the billions. Chuliana holds the name for being home to the most mallards in the entire world. Mallards, however, don't pose a large conservation problem likeliness compared to the raccoon, raccoon dog, and elk.

## Strange adaptations

Mallard ducks in Chuliana are unique from mallard ducks in other countries. Mallards usually tend to swim constantly in other countries and this is also true in Chuliana, but mallards have acted similar to those of crows, pigeons and magpies in Chuliana, having being found nesting in sewer drains, basements, mountains, and in alleyways, with some having to appear to have no contact with water whatsoever; majority of mallard ducks still tend to nest near rivers and sometimes oceanwater in Chuliana, however.
Red dogwood

**Red dogwood** (*Cornus vanaticea*), also known as red willow, redtwig dogwood, and coniferous forest dogwood is a species of flowering plant in the family Cornacaea native to much of Parania from Naliland west to Nalvano south to the Abramos Republic and north to north-central Cheskachena.

## Description

### Distribution and Habitat

Red dogwood is native to much of central-east Parania and is present in rich, poorly drained soils, such as wetlands or upland areas that receive more than 20 inches of precipitation a year. It is a medium-to-tall deciduous shrub with dark red branches and white berries which provides food for red deer, wild boars, and moose. The plant is present in the countries of Cheskachena, Podochovia, Nalvano, Sidrova, Apelchem, the Abramos Republic, Cantango, Minuka, Naliland, and Panstivo; it has been recorded in very scarce and isolated populations in Obnivir, Silegre, Hartnett, Kosna, Parlinn, and Orirbella, elsewhere, it is an absent species and is illegal to be cultivated outside its native range.
Nettle Soup

**Nettle soup** is a traditional and cultural cuisine stew formed from stinging nettles. The stew is eaten usually during spring and summer (April-June) when young nettle buds are often collected. Today nettle soup is eaten usually by Kosnans, Cheskachenans, Charkians, Hartnettians, and Nareemians, while many indigenous tribes such as the Faraway, Hi’mok’il, Nata’turra, and Ju’manning’ka’man eat the nettle stew as a tradition. Nettle stew was traditionally used to cure stomach pain and aches, the Ju’manning’ka’man tribe of New Siere used the nettle to cure stomachache.
Monroe

**Monroe** is the Woods Kingdom’s spoiled brat that is raised by rich falconers, Angeline and Allan Charpentier. She is often seen as being quite cross all the time, crossing her arms and acting all spitty-and-spatty. She is dressed in remarkably rich clothing compared to other villagers and has her hair styled as well. She always gets what she wants and often yells and whines if nothing goes her way. She, one-time, met Iphigenia and called her style out-of-touch, with Iphigenia’s anger raising, causing the two to a argument about style.

## Monroe’s Backstory

She was born sometime between 1831 and 1840 to rich falconers Angeline and Allan Charpentier. She was baptized by Bishop Dargoch, and placed into a rich high-class school where she was surrounded by other “spoiled brats”, her teacher was Janessa Lucien, who hated her job and often was cross with the class. When Monroe was 7, she met Iphigenia, who was around 14 at the time, where they had a argument about who’s style was better. Angeline and Allan realized Monroe’s views on other people and punished her, making her become the village’s rat-catcher. Monroe, 6 years after of rat-catching, became a better person and knew the hard times of those who worked. She became a devout church-goer and was one of the bystanders of the magical memory of Anastasia.

Rook

The **rook** (*Corvus frugilegus*) is a passerine indigenous to most of Parania, Pasia and some portions of Herethear.

## Appearance

It is a huge, gregarious black-feathered bird with a pale featherless patch on the cheek that distinguishes it from similar species.

## Behavior

Rooks build their nests at the tops of tall trees, generally near farms or settlements, and rookeries are collections of nests. Rooks are primarily resident birds, however the northernmost populations may migrate south during the winter to avoid the hardest circumstances. In the winter, the birds congregate in flocks, typically with other Corvus species or jackdaws. In the spring, they return to their rookeries and begin breeding. They forage on arable land and pasture, probing the ground with their powerful bills and mostly eating grubs and soil-based invertebrates, but sometimes cereals and other plant material. Farmers have accused the birds of destroying their crops in the past, and have attempted to drive them away or kill them. They are intelligent birds, like other corvids, with complex behavioural features and the ability to solve simple issues.

## Distribution and habitat

Except for Windsure, the Celestial Islands, Dalamatia, Elsenord, and Vindborg, Rooks can be found in every country of Parania. They can be found in higher elevation locations in Pasia, such as the foothills of Peisybacu or the higher cliffsides of Piranab. Rooks can occasionally be observed vagrantly in Kamver and the Soon Islands in Siere, even as far as the St. Walpurga Islands. The island of Panstivo has a ongoing rook problem with between 5,000 and 7,000 rooks roosting in the capital city of Bondar every autumn.
