Oteara

This is the land of Oteara. It is a lush continent full of different races that come from all walks of life. In a world full of wagons and torches different technologies have also been incorperated into everyday life like electricity for big buildings and "cell phones". Oteara has it's northern, snowy lands of Estersnow and Holcomb while also have more tropical climates like the Isle of Nodd and Lillisp. Life in Oteara is peaceful and prosperous until The End of Times start to pop up in various countries.

## Technology? What do you mean technology?

That's a good ass question, my guy. You see I imagine this world almost running on Steampunk rules, but instead of that good good Victorian themeing we're taking this shit back all the way to the middle ages and depending on the region they may have more of a nature-y twist. We have Edison bulbs lighting up major taverns while people are still riding horses and having animals pull wagons. The bigger cities have industrial power, some using different forms of magic to make the power supply as clean as possible as to not destroy the world you live in slowly. The small villages that surround these cities and kingdom walls typically do not have power unless they are a great deal from a large city. If they do not reside close to a city, the major buildings such as taverns, banks, and stores have power but homes do not. Yeah my guy, you still gotta have a torch in a dungeon.

Luxuries that this world has off the top of my head:

* a mail system like carrier pigeons meet the USPS
* radios
* cell phone/walkie-talkie hybrid thing: Stone of Far Speech? Runephone?
* light bulbs
* basic home appliances - even in villages bc I don't want those poor people to wash shit in the river
* sewer systems, water purification, running water, etc.
* pens, pencils, paper, but you can use a quill and ink if you want to be extra
* newspapers

What we don't have:

* Computers
* Heavy artillery that you would associate with war.
	+ guns: yes but there must be approved. You cannot start off with a gun. Sorry 'bout ya.

## What about the countries, Mariah? How're they? What're they up to?

Another good question. They're pretty chill. Every country is either headed by a monarchy or by some sort of parliament that is calling all the big boy shots. Every city has a mayor and every village at least has like a sheriff that people answer to. As of the game's start, most of the countries are straight up chilling except Aldbourne and Holcomb. Though they're up north freezing their butts off, people like to take over other people's stuff to get more power and that's just what the king of Aldbourne, King Thraynous, is doing. So right now there have been a few battles over where the boundaries of the countries are. Thraynous keeps pushing inward while the parliament of Holcomb, run by Greyson Scrantle, is doing what it can to hold them back and establish a peace treaty that allows them to keep their land. Other than that, the rest of the countries are okay with one another because they have something bigger to deal with. Each country page will have a more detailed map later on their own page.

## And The End of Times?

Okay, ya know. I can't answer everything. That'll ruin surprises for most of you (sorry Chris and Dane but you approved of this so it's really your fault). But what I can tell you right now is that the End of Times is a legend that many believe are coming true. Frightening things have been ruining towns and villages while the leaders are trying to keep their citizens safe. The legend says that if there is a resurrection of The Bound the End will cease but only a select few really know about The Bound and how to reach them.
