Terqua

Terqua is a planet within the Terqua universe, being the planet that the universe is named for.

## Regains

So the world of Terqua is split up into four main regains, this started when magic entered the world as the god - brought magic to the world. When they were bringing it into the world created a large tower within the sea which is now seen as a holy site of magic and is found right in the center of the world. The different regains have the tower within a far corner and basically look like a four way split screen in a game with the Tower Of Magic within the center.

### 1 (high corner to the left)

#### Elvin Kingdom

A culturely rich place older than magic itself, it mainly is home to elves and other long lived or fae people but humans are more than welcomed. The royal family is said to be able to be traced back to before magic came to the would. In the world stage this place is known for it's strict study of and the creation of Damnatorum (along side offering it as a place to put the most dangerous)

#### Caelum/Damnatorum

Even before the kingdom fell Caelum was known as a place full of rebels, and strife due to how the island was invaded by those that left Elvin Kingdom despite people already living there. Just over 100 years ago Caelum fell as both king and queen were found dead and their son, the crown prince went missing. Post that the island was turned into a prison island for the world to send their undesirable despite the 'innocent' that still were living on the island. To the world it is only known as a place criminals or perhaps guards may come from.

#### Asztec

A place inspired by the Aztecs this culture is ruled by it's religious orders focused around honoring the sun and the changing seasons, this is one of few cultures mainly made up of humans and is respected worldwide for having it's shit together for the most part as it not apart of any wars and is known even to step in to preserve peace.

#### Greace/Rome

It is a country of war that is in war with itself, a long time ago the royalline became unclear which caused it to split into two. They are known for how friece they are and their unqinite takes on religon and creation myth. There is a fair amount of conterveresry about this kingdom but it is still respected for the power it is.

### 2 (low corner to the left)

This section of the got either little to no magic when magic came to be, this isn't to say that there is no magic over the years things and people with magic came but it isn't native.

#### Steampunk

A large regen that lacks in magic, there is not natrul born mages within these lands, even when magic entered the world this area stayed the same, to keep up with their magically powered peirs the bright minds of this contry started the uptick on techlogicly creating a steampuck setting, this place has the respect of other contries due their brains but is considered 'old world' due to the lack of magic and support for it.

#### Darkland

When the world got magic this kingdom grew jealous, feeling forgotten by the gods esp since they had been dealing with fammnes and dorts, so to try and even the playing felid the ruler did what many would've considered unthinkable and made a deal with the spinster god --, becomign a warlock and more notably allowing warlock's powers to become a natrually acuring triat within their kingdom. There are now many warklock bloodlines whom are the ruling class within this place.

#### No-Fun Allowed Here

Unlike steampunk, it's cloest nighbor this country's reaction was at first when magic arrived and they klacked it to simply go about how they did before but after hoirrble incident after disaster other contries have faced this contry decided to flat out ban magic and imprision or kill any mage they found. They have been trying to get other less magic relient places to see their pov. A lot of other contries see this one as betrying the gods while they would agrue that Magic was just one of many 'gifts' given by the spinsters and like all else they did and gave it lead to ruin. (They fucking hate darkland and their goth asses)

### 3 (high corner to the right)

#### The City Sates:

##### Scaena

A city that is always putting on a show, those living within the city wear masks that show their 'roles' within the city. While a lot of other cultures consider Scaena the butt of a political joke The City States highly value it both for what it adds to art and their well trained armies.

##### Mountains

Built onto the mountains are many temples and places of faith, home to monks, clirics and palidens alike, these temples are supported and protected by the city built within the mountain ruled by drawfs the city is built of stone and strong gems, valuable metals used to glue it all together. The city is the home to the most valuable of trading sources the city states have and due that combined with it being home to a lot of the City States faith it is one of the best protected places of faith.

##### The Floating City & Crater

This is the center of magic within the city states, above within the sky is a buetiful city deacated to magic and it's wonders and below within the carter that was made when the city was risen is the workers, wood cravers for wands, stone cutters for runes, those without wealth or power.

##### Adventure City

The city is basically the world's hub for adventurers it is the on the edge of the city states that faces where The Deadlands are and is really the only city along many routes that avoid The Deadlands which made it a great trading port and then a great home to adventurers. Now it homes the biggest adventuring guilds, some of the greatest trading ports for rare items and Adventure Acdemity.

#### The Deadlands

A long time ago, in the time magic was still new and fresh, a unbelievably powerful Necromanc spell was casted within these lands and in so it cursed the lands, nothing grows within the dead lands and it is believed that nothing ever will, life is hard for those unlucky enough to be born here as while new life is rare that should be in the afterlfe isn't, home to many lichens, undead, and otherwise dangerous forces call the deadlands home while the lack of resources mean there is no centralized force of power, only small towns built in a week, lived in for a few months and then likely destroyed in moments.

The outside world has many time tried to 'help' the deadlands, ranging from prayers to the most powerful of gods within the life doman, to sending in powerful mages, gaurdens of that is holy, even one case of a mage using one of their ever limited and highly valued wish spells to try and help, all of these attempts have failed so far and often in disaster such as holy worriers falling, god's being 'tainted' by the magic or harmed, and many dying.

#### The Fort

A country encased by wall after wall, which is directly next to The Deadlands, it is a very milltery place and strict with it's rules and laws, often it is considered toeing the egde of being a dictatorship by other contries like The Evlen Kingdom or The City States.

### 4 (low corner to the right)

#### Legend Lands

This is a epic fasntesy area based off classic wrestren fantasy and Chinense legend, it is also home to the Dragonborn and has many great heroes both in history and within the modern times

#### Sea Weatren

It's a mix of Japan and the wild west, As large island like animals have arrived to the sea there the main island there has been a boom in trying cretate homes on the backs of these animals to be albe to better care for them and preserve them as their race is slowly dying out. Classic lone saimari is the mood.

#### The Roots

This is a contry of dense jungles of trees unlike any else in the world as in truth they are actually apart of the tree the contry is built around, this country is right across the sea from the deadlands and is said that back before The Deadlands were blighted the two countries were akin to twins but now in the modern era that can't be farther from the case. There is a high amount of fae within this area due to all of the life magic and how they've been better equirped to built into the nature around them.

### The Floating Plato

This is the home of landbound Lunar Elves, it is built into the clouds in the sky using forgotten spells from the moon. To be able to walk around on these clouds it is required to wear at least a small bit of magical fabric which is weaved to inculde small amounts of stardust (which at first came from the luner elves that fell and within the modern era is supliced by fallen mentors being mined or space pirates/adventurers).
