Astral Synthesis

**Astral Synthesis** is a magical effect produced by either gold and violet animancy or the biofactor of zalthiri. It allows the user to intake passive amounts of anima from the celestials in close proximity: Solara, Lunara, and Harmonara. It can allow for conversation of both additional anima into sustenance and additional sustenance into anima, allowing for easier longevity in either survival or animancy depending on the given situation. A basic example of astral synthesis would only make the difference of a few liters of anima a day, whereas an advanced example would be difference of a several gallons.
Cascadium

**Cascadium** is a material created from the anima of celestials or aspects in combination with a soul. It is noteworthy for its incredible versatility, being utilized in weaponry and armor capable of shifting its form and density at an attuned user's will. The celestials and their aspects only gift cascadium to a sapien which they trust to uphold their interests, though that isn't to say cascadium never falls into the wrong hands. It is the most rare material on the entire planet, aside from arguably adamantium. Some scholars believe cascadium to be tied to the revarin on some level. Each soulsworn artifact was forged by one of the Sixteen Aspects using their cascadium.
Gravity Alteration

**Gravity Alteration** is a magical effect produced by silver animancy. It allows the user to control the gravity around them, either raising or lowering it depending on the situation. A basic example of gravity alteration would be allowing yourself to perform levitation, whereas an advanced example would be flipping gravity within an entire forest in a few minutes.
Fribble

**Fribble** are frog-like animals with turtle shells. They originate from Mathroza, but can be found all throughout Harmonara. They possess two biofactors, enhanced durability and water manipulation. Their shells are also inherently quite durable, classing just below biometal in resistance to their respective color of anima. Earth Xennar often consider them to be a delicacy and have traditionally found good use from every part of the fribble's body.

Ikkara

Ikkara on the map shown in green.

**Ikkara** is a continent located south of Razunka and Mathroza, as well as west of Chromara and Zalthria. It is surrounded by the Lustrous Ocean and Cerulean Ocean to the north, the Aubade Ocean to the east, and the Coalescent Ocean to the south. Statistically, it is the largest singular landmass on Harmonara and is divided into to the highest amount of countries as a result, including the Forward Republic of Ikkara, Free State of Demkarro, Kingdom of Ironcrown, League of New Ikkara, and Third Ikkaran Empire.

The Shrine of Storms is located here and around it is settled the shrine city of Itzumashi, which also houses the majority of trade throughout the landmass. Due to the high amount of orcana left here following the Grand Sundering, they have remained the most predominant species throughout the AGS period. Following the arrival of Sanguara's aspect during the Era of Empires, the most common coloration throughout the landmass would eventually become red. The most widespread language is Orcanish.

## Native Fauna

* Karicor
* Karicrux
* Oztrek
Harmonization

**Harmonization** is a specialization of animancy referring to conversation of anima into a variety of diverse effects through **Music**. The effect of music depends on a number of factors, including; the instrument used, the genre of music being played, and the coloration of anima being utilized in the process. Someone who engages in harmonization is generally called a **Magician**, a portmanteau of mage and musician. Magicians can be some of the most powerful individuals on Harmonara, though the need to engage in training both the anima output of their soul, as well as their skills in writing and performing music.

## Trivia

* Lifelong magicians of other races may aspire to become revarin.
* Similar effects can be achieved through singing, which is done through the use of a vocalizer.
* Magicians can achieve effects much more potent and with much more effiency when collaborating.
Celestian Dollar

**Celestian Dollars** are the officially minted currency of the Twilight Nations, serving as an alternative to prisms. They are predominantly created utilizing black, gold, or violet anima shaped into biometal coins. The currency was only created following the War of Twilight in 1752 AGS, prior to which the country utilized a combination of Solarish lira and Lunaran peseta.
Bioengineering

**Bioengineering** is a specialization of animancy which deals in utilizing anima for the the creation or alteration of animals and sapiens, being the entire basis of biological technologies throughout Harmonara. An example of bioengineering is the grafting of a limb from one species to another, for either medical or cosmetic purposes. Bioengineering is also capable of producing homunculi, which are often compared with golems created by fleshcrafting. Someone who engages in bioengineering is generally called a **Bioengineer**.
Kingdom of Ironcrown

Kingdom of Ironcrown on the map, with territory shown in pale blue.

The **Kingdom of Ironcrown**, commonly known as **Ironcrown** and the **Sanguine Kingdom**, is a country comprising multiple regions on the continents of Ikkara, Vrozneir, and Xakroz. It is bordered by the Third Ikkaran Empire on Ikkara, the Vrozneiri Republic on Vrozneir, and by both the United Kingdom of Sol and Lunar Commonwealth's land claims on Xakroz.

The inhabitants of this nation are primarily orcana and hikaree, with a sizable population of thraxari and zalthiri.

## History

### **Early History**

The kingdom originally consisted only of the Ironcrown region. Early in its history, thraxari were welcomed in great numbers by local orcana who valued their technique of fleshcrafting, offering them full citizenship and several benefits in exchange for both peoples sharing knowledge about crafting. The thraxari shared the secrets of biometal with the orcana and in turn the orcana provided them with valuable information regarding orcanium and other more common metals.

### **Era of Twilight**

During the Blood Wars, Ironcrown sent support in the form of economic aid to the various regions rebelling against the High King. When the Sanguali region refused to joined the new Republic, Ironcrown continued sending aid to the region and established close trade relations to support the new nation. Despite support from Ironcrown, Sanguali continued to struggle as its own state.

Eventually, a political union was proposed by Ironcrown, which was eventually passed and accepted in Sanguali. Upon becoming the single country, the two regions were able to establish a strong economic force.

## Trivia

* Ironcrown has the highest population of thraxari in any country outside of Prizmatic Xakroz.
* This country noteworthy for producing some of the best blacksmiths on Harmonara.

It can enable the user to utilize the Eradicate Soul effect, being the only known object on Harmonara capable of doing so. The spear was created with the intention of eliminating the soul of powerful individuals who were believed by Hakairo to be a threat even after their physical death. During the Era of Obsidian, it was utilized by the Obsidian during their various campaigns to end what they perceived as corrupt regimes throughout the world. During the Era of Pestilence, it was utilized by Yoshino Sundersong in order to slay Toiraku, later on falling into the hands of the Bifroz Rebellion and being wielded by Karasu Soulbringer during the Three Crown Assassination.
First Alignment

The **First Alignment** was a major event which occurred during the Era of Celestials in 174 AGS. It marks the arrival of Solara and Lunara orbiting around Harmonara for the first time and the creation of the zalthiri, leading to a lot of widespread speculation as to what they are and whether or not they posed a threat to the general populace. It would be followed over four centuries later by the Second Alignment.
Fire Manipulation

**Fire Manipulation** is a magical effect produced by either red and gold animancy or the biofactor of xennar, karicor, karicrux, and snulaku. It allows the user to control or even generate fire through utilization of anima. A basic example of fire manipulation would be lighting a candle with a small flame, whereas an advanced example would be causing an entire forest fire within a few moments.
Gold

**Gold** is a coloration of anima. It is described as representing courage and is the opposite of violet in the anima spectrum. Gold anima is produced by and primarily composes the bodies of animals and sapiens with gold souls. Gold souls are most common throughout the landmass of Zalthria, closely associated with the celestial, Solara. As a result, gold is also the most prolific coloration among zalthiri since the Era of Celestials. It has the following properties when focused into magical effects through animancy:

Imperial Yen

**Imperial Yen** are the officially minted currency of the Third Ikkaran Empire, serving as an alternative to prisms. They are predominantly created utilizing red anima shaped into biometal coins. Due to the Free State of Demkarro not currently minting their own official currency, yen is still the primary coin being traded throughout the region. Some individual have taken to making their own designs, but they have yet to be decided on by the government.
Eclipse Wars

The **Eclipse Wars** was a major event which began the Era of Pestilence in 1964 AGS. It began with the creation of the pestilants and their subsequent incursions upon the countries of Harmonara. The casualties were widespread and vast upon every major population, but the most losses are held by the Razunkan Federation, who lost the entirety of the continent of Razunka of the course of the war. The Shrine of Shores connecting Razunka to the rest of the world was destroyed during the Uldarstadt Agreement, causing the Salaza Diaspora. By 1976 AGS, any armed forces from members of the Harmonic Accords have pulled out from the continent, though there are still technically independent militias fighting the war, including the eastern Razunka brotherhood of Obsidian.
Air Xennar

**Air Xennar** are a variation of xennar. They are distinct from other xennar due to their avian appearance and air manipulation biofactor. They generally prefer to soar the high skies and as a result they have predominantly stayed within the Soaring Isles throughout most of the timeline, with contact among the surface being minimal aside from hunting and occasional trading.
Earth Xennar

Statistically, it is the smallest ocean on Harmonara. The ocean is home to several thousand islands, including Hayvensreach and the Celestial Isles.

## History

### **Era of Expansion**

During the Era of Expansion in 1615 AGS, the Lunar Commonwealth first began to colonize this region in their pursuit of claiming the Shrine of Shadows on New Zalthria.

### **Era of Twilight**

During the Era of Twilight in 1729 AGS, the ocean was the site of many battlefields throughout the War of Twilight. By the end of the war, the majority of coastline and landmasses surrounding this ocean became under the control of the Twilight Nations, although the Lunar Commonwealth also has a significant portion of its coastline on it.
Lunara

**Lunara**, also known as the **Moon**, is an active violet-soul celestial which serves as a deity to many people throughout Harmonara. When manifesting an aspect she resembles a feminine zalthiri with traits of a phoxin, who are also her favored sapiens and soulspawn respectively. Her primary worship derives from the lunar zalthiri. who are believed by many scholars to have been created by Lunara using the orcana. Although celestials do not have a traditional concept of gender, the population of the planet generally refer to Lunara as a female.

Lunara has been engaged in an endless struggle with Solara for generations of Harmonara's history, though they have never appeared to engage in combat on a personal level. The celestials prefer to influence the population of Harmonara to achieve their agendas. The most noteworthy religious organization based around Lunara is known as the Shining Shore.
Empire

**Empire** can refer to multiple things on Harmonara, including the following:

* Third Ikkaran Empire is the only remaining empire by the Era of Pestilence, consisting of multiple provinces to form the largest modern country.
* Empire of Mathraz comprised the supercontinent of Mazunkeira prior to the Grand Sundering and ruled over the majority of the known world.
* Empire of Razun was the first empire to control an entire continent, dominating Razunka and ruling over the majority of salaza during its reign.
* Empire of Vrozneir was an empire ruling over the entirety of Vrozneir, which united every hikaree kingdom or republic under a single monarch.
* United Kingdom of Sol does not formally named itself as an empire but does comprise of several kingdoms with their own monarchs, being functionally very similar.
Daniel Hayven

**Daniel "Danny" Azaria Hayven** was a Celestian twilight-soul zalthiri who was once the Allborn, Twilight Sage, Shrinekeeper of the Shrine of Shadows, and King of the Twilight Nations. Considered by many of his people to be a creative and compassionate leader, he was an open advocate for peace among the zalthiri and strived towards better relations with both the Lunar Commonwealth and United Kingdom of Sol throughout his rule.

His popularity among Celestians eventually led to the creation of the Unyielding in 1955 AGS. He eventually developed the Assistive Neural Interface Mechanized Automaton during 1956 AGS. During the Eclipse Wars in 1965 AGS, Daniel ventured to the landmass of Razunka alongside an entire battalion was believed to have gone missing in action. After five years with no contact made, it was decided that Anna Hayven would formally take his place on the throne. Finally during 1976 AGS, it was revealed to Anna by Taskforce Omega that Daniel's body has been ovetaken as a host for an elnox known as Atlas-Dragoumis, though as a soul he was actively working in collaboration with the elnox to overthrow the ruling class known as the Great Dark Below.
Animarus

**Animarus** is a condition that causes the body to produce more anima at the expense of a hyperactive metabolism. It is believed to have been created by one of the former Sages as an attempt to create magicians with enhanced potential. Though its effects are only active for a time, after which it goes dormant within the body.
Leyline

**Leylines** are part of a celestial's biology which transfer anima across the world, comparable to a blood vessel in other sapiens. The wayshrines of Harmonara were built upon leylines by the Empire of Mathraz into order to draw from their power, though the method in which they do so is not entirely agreed upon by scholars. The anima of the leylines were drawn upon during the Uldarstadt Agreement, used to fuel an anima charge alongside the power of the Sages.
Halvi Builder's Union

Halvi Builder's Union on the map, with territory shown in burgundy.

The **Halvi Builder's Union** is a country located on the landmass of Mathroza, occupying its western regions. It is bordered by the Greater Mathrazi Domain and Emerald Realm to the east. The inhabitants of this nation are primarily xennar.
Klastor

**Klastor** are flytrap-like animals with seven long tentacles akin to vines. They originate from the Heavenly Ocean, but can be found all across the World Ocean on Harmonara. They possess two biofactors, earth manipulation and prism generation. Because of their ability to create prisms without the use of animancy, in addition to being considered a delicacy among some cultures throughout Ikkara and Zalthria, they have traditionally been considered quite valuable and have been victims to overfishing, though since the Era of Unification the Harmonic Accords has made efforts to control their populations. Istvan-Sarantos has played an important role in restoring healthy numbers of klastor throughout the Heavenly Ocean, as they make up a sizable percentage of the fishing industry within the Zenith Economic Zone.
Dragon Wars

The **Dragon Wars** was a major event which occurred during the Era of Dragons in 413 AGS. After discovering the Drowning Tidesblade created by Jefuhluz in 397 AGS, Razun Dietrich had utilized the weapon to further his piracy, though his ambitions eventually expanded as more and more ships fell under his control. Razun turned his attention towards several dragonshires and the dragons which ruled over them. With power invested in the weapon from by Sapphara, many dragons on the continent which eventually became known as Razunka either were slain or forced to swear loyalty to him. By the end of the Dragon Wars, the Empire of Razun was formally proclaimed, having gained control over the entire continent and surrounding islands by the end of the conflict, with the exception of Azurlon to the north which was able to maintain independence.
Astral Projection

**Astral Projection**, also known as **Spirit Projection**, is a multicoloration magical effect produced by the biofactor of celestials. It allows the user to manifest a portion of their power and personality into an aspect. Celestials often do this in order to interact with smaller species, during the rare cases in which direct contact is needed. Harmonara happens to be the permanent residence to at least one aspect of each coloration within the anima spectrum. A basic example of astral projection would be creating an aspect that is not much more powerful than the average person, whereas an advanced example would be well beyond the capabilities of an an entire group of expert combatants.
Soulspeaking

**Soulspeaking** is a multicoloration magical effect. It allows the user to communicate through a pseudo telepathic connection using the soul. It is much easier to be done between people who are of a matching coloration, otherwise it requires longterm training in how to communicate with other types of souls. If two people soulspeaking to eachother are directly related by blood, the process is noticeably simplified. If two people are soulbound, they gain the same benefit that someone directly related to them would with soulspeaking to eachother. Generally the further the distance the user is from their target, the more difficult soulspeaking becomes. Communicating upon leylines make long distance communication easier, so shrine cities make for ideal locations in which to do it.
Sanguine Xakroz

**Sanguine Xakroz** is a region located on the landmass of Xakroz. It is part of the Kingdom of Ironcrown and comprises several crownships. It is bordered by Solarish Xakroz to the northwest and Lunaran Xakroz to the south. They benefit greatly from trading agreements with Lunaran Xakroz to the south, which allows them priority access to the Shrine of Lights compared to other countries.
Solari

**Solari** is a language primarily spoken by the solar zalthiri. It is the main language throughout much of Zalthria, New Zalthria, and Xakroz. It is an official language within the United Kingdom of Sol, Twilight Nations, Prizmatic Xakroz, and Chromatic Union. Solari surnames and given names are similar to Italian names in the real world.
White

**White** is a hypothesized coloration of anima. White Anima is not currently known to have any scientific basis in reality, though some organizations or individuals throughout Harmonara believe it exists regardless. Proponents include members of the Brotherhood of Lights, who believe the entire Anima Spectrum is derived from White Anima. Those who believe in White Anima often also believe in an additional unseen aspect or celestial, which is meant to represent this hypothetical coloration. Most scientists believe the concept of White Anima to be an unfounded claim at best and a harmful conspiracy theory at worst.
Webspinner

**Webspinners** are specialized devices made utilizing fleshcrafting. They are primarily utilized by the thraxari, who employ them to alter the functions of their web generation biofactor. Webspinners are also often given special magical effects, commonly including enhanced strength. Although they are mostly used by thraxari, some models are made specifically for use by other sapiens, in which they must include silver anima to produce webbing.
Obsidian

The **Obsidian** are an organization founded during the Era of Iridescence in 1000 AGS. They are divided into multiple brotherhoods whose purpose is to train and assemble the most skilled black-soul combatants throughout Harmonara. They have continued to garner influence through the legendary deeds accomplished by many of their members, most notably throughout the Era of Obsidian, despite relatively low numbers compared to other groups. Aspirants must endure years of advanced combat training, first in controlled scenarios and eventually on the field of battle. Noteworthy individuals are Vladar-Kendo.

## Traditions

Those found worthy of joining the order often wear armor crafted entirely from black biometal, making them and especially formidable foe against any animancer. Obsidian are often identifiable by the skull motifs found on their armor. Some of them use real skulls, taken from the kill they are most proud of. Others simply use metal shaped in the form of a skull. Another common trait in their outfits are the inclusion of biocloth cloaks, either placed over their armor while in combat or over their daily wear while in civilian clothing.

They often hold a deep respect for the world around them, striving to preserve history and defend the future, while also fighting to uphold the freedom of the individual. As a result, many end up pledging themselves to pro-environmental causes and local rebellions. Not all Obsidian hold the same loyalties, nor the same interpretation of their traditional code of honor. Obsidian tended to have an interest in uncovering the history of the world around them, particularly information from the BGS eras which had been lost to time. The Cradle of Creation was also a noteworthy part of their mythology.

## Brotherhoods

The Obsidian have traditionally maintained twelve brotherhoods throughout the majority of the timeline, spread fairly evenly among the various continents. Under the Harmonic Accords, these brotherhoods and their territories are considered sovereign enclaves free to make their own laws. Their surrounding country will often honor this to varying degrees however. There was a brotherhood located on Chromara, eastern Ikkara, western Ikkara, Mathroza, New Zalthria, eastern Razunka, western Razunka, Vrozneir, Xakroz, eastern Zalthria, western Zalthria, and northern Zalthria. Most of the brotherhoods collaborate with one another alongside ZenithCorp through the Black Alliance, excluding the eastern Razunka brotherhood which cut off communication with the other eleven during the Eclipse Wars.

## Trivia

* They are often considered rivals to the Children of Kozmori, due to the general divergence in their beliefs surrounding Prizmara.
New Zalthria

New Zalthria on the map shown in green.

**New Zalthria**, colloquially known as **Newthria**, is a continent located south of Zalthria and east of Ikkara. It is surrounded by the Coalescent Ocean to the south, and the Heavenly Ocean to the north. Statistically, it is the third smallest continent and the sixth largest landmass on Harmonara, being entirely controlled by the Twilight Nations since the Era of Twilight.

The Shrine of Shadows is located here and around it is settled the shrine city of Kalamarto, which also houses the majority of trade throughout the landmass. Due to the high amount of zalthiri which colonized the continent during the Era of Expansion, they have remained the most predominant species throughout the majority of the AGS period. Following the arrival of Lunara's aspect during the Era of Chaos, the most common coloration throughout the landmass would eventually become violet. The most widespread languages are Chromatic, Lunari, Prizmatic, and Solari.
Celestial

**Celestials** are sapiens in the form of massive cosmic beings with origins still shrouded largely in mystery. All that is known with certainty is that they are incredibly powerful self-aware astronomical objects with a nigh endless source of anima, having several leylines which help transfer that anima around them. Despite the mystery around celestials their influence can be felt around every corner of Harmonara, including by various aspects made through astral projection. Harmonara herself is also a dormant celestial of black coloration.

## History

### **Era of Celestials**

During the Era of Celestials in 174 AGS, Solara and Lunara (commonly known as the Sun and Moon) arrived nearby Harmonara in an event called the First Alignment. Ever since, they have played an important role throughout the timeline. By the year 182 AGS, the first zalthiri were created on the planet, with many believing the celestials had used the orcana as a basis for this transformation.

The first organization focused around worship of a celestial occurred in 191 AGS, when a group of solar zalthiri created the Ashen Dawn, who originally aimed simply to learn more about the celestial and its origins. Only four years later, this was followed by the lunar zalithri creating the Shining Shore to uncover the same about their own celestial. Originally, these two organizations collaborated with one another for a common purpose.

The **Shrine of Omens** is a landmark and wayshrine located on the continent of Chromara. The shrine city of Symphosagia was settled around the surrounding area and it is currently under the control of the Chromatic Union. The sunderforged artifact connected with this shrine is the Ocarina of Onset Omens.
Overworld

The **Overworld**, also known as the **Surface**, is a region which describes the exterior of all landmasses and comprise the majority of civilizations throughout Harmonara. The terminology was originally used by thraxari to distinguish this area from Subterrestria, the World Ocean, and the Soaring Isles which comprise societies in the undeground, deep sea, and skies respectively.
Empire of Mathraz

The **Empire of Mathraz** was a country on the landmass of Mazunkeira. It was ruled over entirely by the mathora, as during this time all other sapiens were considered subservient to them. It spanned throughout the entire continent and thus dominated the vast majority of Harmonara throughout the BGS period. Its influence had only began to wane during the Era of Decline.

## History

### **Era of Decline**

During the Era of Decline in 35 BGS, the first plans were drafted for the wayshrines by some of the most powerful animancers at the time. The wayshrines were intended to solve the challenges of maintaining such a large empire, allowing for easy transportation of goods and troops across the world. For over three decades the mathora labored over their construction, which was finalized by 1 BGS. Their ignition ultimately led to the downfall of the empire, as a significant amount of mathora were decimated in the process and the continent was shattered into several smaller landmasses.
Organization

**Organizations** are the various groups of sapiens throughout Harmonara who work together for some form of purpose. An organization can include a company, institution, religion, or any number of other collaborations. Many organizations have risen and fallen throughout the timeline.

Shire

**Shires**, interchangeably referred to as **Kingdoms**, are administrative regions within the United Kingdom of Sol. Each kingdom possesses their own monarchy, but their powers are very limited as they are required by law to swear loyalty to the Solarish Monarchy. The kingdoms do not have their own individual parliaments, being entirely subject to laws of the federal government.

Prizmatic Xakroz

The flag of Prizmatic Xakroz, often called the Mark of the Prizmatic.

Prizmatic Xakroz on the map, with territory shown in dark purple.

**Prizmatic Xakroz** is a country located on the continent of Xakroz, occupying the entirety of the Ebon Peninsula. It shares a land border with Lunaran Xakroz to the north, also sharing the landmass with Solarish Xakroz and Sanguine Xakroz. Prizmatic Xakroz is the smallest country in terms of area and population, aside from the Zenith Economic Zone whose status is disputed. Its also the only country to have a majority population of thraxari.

Prizmatic Xakroz is a unitary parliamentary democracy and constitutional monarchy. The current monarch, Queen Anna Elaine Hayven, has reigned since 1970 AGS. The capital and largest city is Eltapolis. Originating as a colony of the Lunar Commonwealth, it became the Prizmatic Dominion within the Twilight Nations following the Revolt of Lights. Generations later, the Dominion voted under referendum to become its own country, peacefully seceding in 1973 AGS.

The official languages are Chromatic, Lunari, Solari, and Prizmatic, though the majority of the population speaks Prizmatic. Thraxari are the most prolific sapiens followed closely by the zalthiri, and as a result the most common colorations are black, gold, and violet. The officially minted currency is the Prizmaran drachma. Prizmatic Xakroz is also a member of the Harmonic Accords.

## History

### **Era of Expansion**

During the Era of Expansion in 1653 AGS, the Ebon Peninsula was established as part of the Lunaran Xakroz colony within the Lunar Commonwealth. The Lunaran first arrived on Xakroz attempting to establish permanent control over the Shrine of Lights, around which they settled the shrine city of Lon Mazuerto.

### **Era of Twilight**

During the Era of Twilight in 1761 AGS, the Twilight Nations joined forces with local rebellions in order to overthrow Lunaran influence during the Revolt of Lights. Following liberation of the Ebon Peninsula in 1763 AGS, the rebel forces agreed to integration as a semi-autonomous territory of the Twilight Nations known as the Prizmatic Dominion, with many thraxari immigrating to the region in the following decades.

### **Era of Pestilence**

During the Era of Pestilence in 1968 AGS, a significant population of thraxari relocated here following The Scorching by the Broken Dawn. The thraxari on the Skittering Isles had their population decimated to only 10% of their original numbers, with those remaining being accepted as refugees by the Twilight Nations, Emerald Realm, and Chromatic Union.

Five years later in 1973 AGS, Prizmarans held an independence referendum concurrent with the Eclipse Wars. The local population elected to breakaway into their own country by a vote of 65% in favor. Following its declaration of independence, it became the only thraxari majority country on all of Harmonara. Despite cutting ties from the Celestian parliament, they still maintain the Celestian monarch as their head of state, though the position has been rendered entirely ceremonial.
Celestian Monarchy

The **Razunkan Federation**, commonly known as the **Dragonlands**, is a country which was located on the continent of Razunka. It shares no land borders, though it is separated from the Azurelands by the Boreal Ocean. Comprising an entire continent, it is the fourth largest country in the world by area and has the third longest coastline on Harmonara. Despite its massive territorial claim, as of the Era of Pestilence it only maintains control over the Turquoise Isles south of the mainland.

The Razunkan Federation is a federal semi-presidential constitutional republic. The capital and shrine city was Uldarstadt, centered around the Shrine of Shores on Razunka. Since the Uldarstadt Agreement, official government operations have moved to the city of New Razunka in the Emerald Realm. The regions of the Federation are divided up into dragonshires, which possess their own autonomy but ultimately are all subject to follow federal laws.

Though most inhabitants have relocated to Mathroza. The inhabitants of this nation were primarily salaza.

## History

### **Era of Pestilence**

Over the course of the Eclipse Wars, nearly all of their territory has been lost to the pestilants. After a meeting between the Sages, it was agreed by the majority to destroy Razunka’s wayshrine to contain the threat primarily to a single continent.

The people of the Emerald Realm, who overwhelmingly disagreed with the decision, offered a portion of their territory in Mathroza for the salaza to settle themselves in. A number salaza moved out towards the Azurelands in order to continue their fight against the pestilants, though most of the civilian population settled the city of New Razunka within the Realm.

## Trivia

* There is a cosmic pearl represented on the flag of the Razunkan Federation.

Xennaro surnames and given names are similar to Arabic names in the real world. As a result, they have a wide variety of naming conventions, but do not often have a surname, such as with Shimasani.

**Snulaku** are snail-like animals with a serpentine shape, magically resistant shells, and skin with similar properties to lava. They originate from Ikkara, but can be found all throughout Harmonara. They possess two biofactors, fire manipulation and temperature alteration.

It is surrounded by the Aubade Ocean to the west, the Umbral Ocean to the east, and both the Heavenly Ocean and Coalescent Ocean to the south. Statistically, it is the second largest singular landmass on Harmonara. It is divided into three countries which often compete for its territory and the future of the zalthiri, the Lunar Commonwealth, United Kingdom of Sol, and most recently the Twilight Nations.

The Shrine of Stars is located here and around it is settled the shrine city of Kinorsala, which also houses the majority of trade throughout the landmass. Due to the high amount of orcana left here following the Grand Sundering, which eventually became the zalthiri during the Era of Celestials, they have remained the most predominant species throughout the AGS period. Following the arrival of Solara and Lunara's aspects during the same era, the most common coloration throughout the landmass would eventually become gold in the north and violet in the south. The most widespread languages are Solari and Lunari.
