> "*Exivus is a world were modern life humans lead and the magical forces of Trinity and Saint Dragons meet. The continental islands, majorly Astora, are technologically advanced, surrounded by a looming dome of unbreakable stencilla glass. In many ways, Exivus is indeed similar to contemporary 'Earth' with cars, smartphones, and metropolitan cities... but at the same time the world is roamed by colossal Ragnavatars and magical beings like DATA Astrals exist.*"

## History

### Brave Draconica

The world of Exivus is made of Raos, the celestial body, who sacrificed himself in order to create a world that would be without evil. He became the true world the humans live on, considered a flat earth. And his soul became a huge firmament (later known as the Grand Design) that would protect his spirit which turned into the creatures living inside the world.

He is still alive and looks over Exivus. Basically, he is the only light in an infinite darkness.

He fought against Meriune and his servants of darkness a long long time ago. But he was the only one who made Meriune to be his perfect creation. But Meriune betrayed him (basically the same story as Azazel and Satan) and he convinced 1/3rd of Raos's legion to turn against him. When Raos defeated the legions of darkness for the first time, and he created the world of Exivus, he made one fatal mistake. Raos created Meriune as a perfect being but in order to do that Raos had to sacrifice a tiny bit of his own power which later caused a crack in the dome. Resulting to let evil enter in the world.

## Development

> "*For my world named Exivus from my project, "Dragoma", I used all 7 continental islands to be mapped digitally on a flat circular plane inspired by Flat Earth. Each nation and location has it's unique ruleset that is easily distinguishable thanks to the real world inspirations. The player has the ability to "fast travel" in each visited country to access or revisit completed locations. Each location has it's own terrain value, inhabited by certain enemies. Though drawing on paper is the easiest, drawing out the world digitally gives it a more complex but cleaner feel to it. :)*"

## Trivia

* Exivus (appearance wise) is highly inspired by Flat Earth, including the elements of the ice wall representing the Grand Design. All continents and landmarks are stationary while only the sun and the moon revolve 24/7 around the planet. Even though it is constantly mentioned as Planet Exivus instead of Flat Plain Exivus throughout the game allures to the mistakable typo in the script.
* Though Astora's LED steel locks power the Grand Design, it's rather unknown as to how Exivus's outer rim is an extended version of the stencilla dome.
* Compared to the other locations on Exivus, Astora is claimed to still be the largest location, holding two sub continents that combine the surface area of Europe according to Robin Ward. The other 7 locations have similar square surface to their respective countries they were based on.
* All other locations do have the same mode of transportation as Astora including the REIA trains and Azureliner jets.
* The currency across Exivus is split into each country respectively: Delyran Drakma, Pleurian Drakma, Dranian Rubel, Crinean Drakma, Pherean Drakma, Iris Gill, Xegrelan ???, Arundel Dollar, Shenzhen Ren, Vadianian Dollar, Dunedin Dollar, Glengariff Drakma, Junon Peso, Zeninian Yen, Dragardian Krone, Skyvegar Gil, Varðiverǫld Gil.
* The post service of Exivus spans across these postal companies from thier respective locations: Die POST (Delyra), La POST Crinee (Crinea), VPS (Vaduz Postal Service), Pochta Dranon, Fera Post, Shopee Express (Junon), Post Zenin, and Dragavard Post.
