With Airatessa being a world with high technology, devices like computers and cellphones are of course a part of this, and are a pivotal part of communication.

If you want to RP without having to worry about word count, you can start a quick, low-word topic here. Just make sure you list the location within the topic. If you are new to RPing, this can also be a good place to practice!

A special area within Sylvia where coliseum battles take place for both glory and entertainment. All hopefuls are allowed to enter, but make sure to read the rules first!

The biggest mountain range in Airatessa, and the main landmark of Kaysa. The mountains stretch out for miles, both across the surface and towards the heavens. The area around the base is generally shrouded in mist, and the top is always covered in snow. You can catch a gondola to Nyor city from the base, but be careful to venture in too far, as plenty of monsters call the Valice range their home.

A large river that runs all the way through the country. It's too swift to boat or swim in, but it is often used for fishing. It's fed from several streams that run down from the Valice mountains.

A village on a cliff with an unparalleled view of the sunset each morning, which is its namesake. Not many ever get to see it, however, as this is the village of the elves. Almost all remaining individuals of the elven race live in this natural but highly cultured town. Anyone else will need permission to enter, and it's not easy to obtain.

Sub-board: Dawn Forest

A large, beautiful forest named for the unique colors that can be found here in the plants, mushrooms, and flowers that cover the soil.

A huge marshland that stretches across a wide area. It's not livable for humanoid species, but it's teeming with monsters. Nonetheless, it draws a few visitors, as there are tales of treasures and artifacts hidden somewhere in the swamp...

A small, secluded town that is populated by the last remaining dwarves. The houses are built into rocky outcrops. Any race is allowed to enter, however, and many come seeking the high quality weapons and armor that the dwarves are known for building.

Sub-board: The Market

A huge desert that covers much of the ground in Rookdale. It's always hot and dry here, and most travelers can easily get lost if not prepared. Watch out for sandstorms, too!

Sub-board: The Oasis

A series of mines that are treacherous but filled with resources. Monsters have recently started taking residence in the area, prompting most hopefuls to abandon the mines, but for the strong or brave, there are still potential money making minerals to be found here.

The north side of Kraven city, and the area where gajuma live. It's generally the more tourist oriented side, and has many shops as well as a Rebirth Outpost church.

Sub-board: Rebirth Outpost

The south side of Kraven city, and where the lycanthe live. Unlike the north side, this side is a lot less welcoming to visitors. The area between the border of the two sides is the site of a lot of gajuma and lycanthe skirmishes.

A large canyon and valley that runs through the north area of Rookdale. It can make for perilous traveling, but the path through the middle is fairly well traveled. Just watch out for monsters!

Sub-board: Prison Caves

A hot, uphill forest. Due to the weather, the trees and shrubs that compose it are barren and brown most of the year. Clouds seem to hang low here, as well, giving the place a hazy look. It's said to be haunted by some residents of the neighboring Bastte.

A small, crowded town. It's out of the way location makes it somewhat more peaceful than many other Opharis locations, however, and it's also one of the only cities in the country that's populated by multiple races.

Sub-board: Club Contrail

A large, sprawling underground subway system that runs throughout Opharis. It's quick and convenient, but watch out for shady characters who may be lurking.

An area outside of any city or town where many factories, mills, and refineries are located. They're placed out here to avoid polluting the cities with noise or smoke. A few workers and their families still choose to live in the area, though.

A once thriving wilderness that has been largely deforested for lumber and other resources. A few trails still remain, though it's nothing but a shadow of what it once was.

Sub-board: Rebirth Outpost

The capital of Opharis, and home of the royal family. Being the only remaining solid government in this time of turmoil, the city and it's leaders are influential throughout all of Airatessa. Because of this, many think of it as not only the country's, but the world's capital, as well. It's a massive, elegant city.

Sub-boards: Opharis Medical, Research District, The Academy, The Library, Royal Court, Hunter's Guild

A huge park outside of Sylvia, Horizon park is known for fantastical gardens, sprawling playgrounds and sports-fields, and the noisy, glistening amusement park at its center, complete with rides, booths, and games. The theme park section of the area is only open after dusk.

A network of cliffs and caves. Surprisingly however, they're one of the only remaining reasons that visitors sometimes still travel to Aurem - inside the caves are world famous hotsprings! If you visit, make sure not to stray far from the springs, though - it's easy to get lose in the labyrinthine tunnels.

Sub-board: Hotsprings

A dark green forest constantly shrouded in mist and thorns. Because of the atmosphere, many people claim that it's haunted. Located near the coast, some areas of the forest are also separated from the mainland on small islands. These areas are particularly heavy on myths. Whether all these claims are true or not, it is known to have a dangerously high level of monster activity.

A town near the center of the country, and one of the only areas that still has a few inhabitants. A mostly human area, a few surviving residents refuse to leave the city.

Sub-board: Rebirth Outpost

A quaint lake that's still beautiful despite the chaos that it's fallen into. Now a haven for monsters, it's said to have once been a sacred location.

A vivid, colorful meadow that stretches on for several acres. In the past, it was a favorite recreational area.

A mysterious city that floats high above the continent. The only location in Airatessa with more advanced technology than Slyvia, it's home to the rare Kritya race, and very few others have ever set foot on it. No one aside from the Kritya themselves know how they keep it afloat.

Talk about anything you want to here that isn't covered elsewhere!

You can show off your art here, whether it be something written like poetry or fanfiction, or a drawing or sketch. You can also share graphics or set up a graphics shop if you wish. Just make sure to post in the right place - everything without an applicable sub-board goes in the main one.
