Furthermore, multi-talented individuals usually suffer from some sort of mental ailment, and succumb to mental fatigue quicker.

New Moscow
In the skyline one can see the oddly shaped towers of what was once the Kremlin. Its vibrant colours having long faded to very pale greens, blues and oranges centuries ago, it ominously towers over the city. No one really knows where the name Moscow comes from but the people of the city are very proud, having built a large stone wall around the entire city and large doors comprised of iron.


The Square –The business centre of the world, though also home to shady individuals and thieves. Here one may find almost anything they desire…at the shopkeeper’s price, which is never cheap.

Odin District – Dark streets, no one ever feels safe. The crime rate is through the roof. Many Mentals live here. Supposedly there’s a black market somewhere within.

Liberty District – Laughing children, cobblestoned roads, and luxurious homes are what characterise this district. Scandals and idle talk plague it as well. Ivan, the governor of New Moscow lives in this district. Here one can find the important buildings pertaining to the government of New Moscow.

The Kremlin Ruins – It is an eerie place, though one full of wonder. How could someone have created such buildings so tall? They say it is a haunted place, though every now and again children will sneak in to see if the tale is true.

Various Zones in the World And Major Cities

The Track
A lone dirt road winds through the wilds of the known world. Various weather-worn wooden signs lead travellers to their destinations: the scorching cities of Rica and Nile, the militant frozen fortress Svedway, mysterious Astana and its giant torch to the heavens, the mountain city Manda and neighbouring rice land Shingtao. It is said that if you go all the way east you will enter the frigid land of Ska and the bountiful forests of Kanda, both greatly unexplored.
The roads are treacherous, the occasional dead zones, the vicious animals, the bandits that plague the road. It is best to travel in groups when taking these paths.

Path of Plains – The land is flat for as far as the eye can see, the weather is temperate shifting with the seasons, the farther east you go the colder it gets, and the more the land grows to hills, forests and mountains. Leads to: Path of hills, Path of Arctic Forest, Path of Eastern Mountains, Road to New Moscow

Path of Hills – Rolling hills seem to go on forever, plains of sweet green grass cover the entirety of the world, or so it seems. The purity of these hills makes it seem like the Night of White never happened. At the tops of the hills a forest can be seen in the distance. Leads to: Path of Forests, Road to Samara

Path of Forest - A temperate forest with an abundance of trees. It is most beautiful in the fall, when the leaves of the deciduous change to their vibrant colours. This path is relatively safe, however many bandits see fit to use this path as a base for their operations, be wary when travelling along the path and do not speak to every person you come across. Leads to: Path of The Northern Plains, Path of The Eastern Northern Mountains

Path of The Northern Plains – You feel like you’re at the edge of the world as you journey onwards. Settlements are fewer and far between, most of them consisting of those who are Mental. The people are either suspicious and deceitful or hospitable and accepting, rarely in between.

Path of The Arctic Forest – Huge coniferous trees are dispersed about the path. Gentle snow falls down lightly dusting the path, and the trees are heavy with snow. Occasionally there are blizzards, but the trees provide adequate shelter. That is not to say it is safe within this land, wolves prowl at the fall of night. Leads to: Path of Snow, Road to Novaguard

Path of Eastern Mountains – These Mountains are fickle, some laden with fresh snow, while others are covered in thick vegetation. There are creatures on these mountains, both hot and cold; if you aren’t prepared you will not make it to the other side. Leads to: Path of Eastern Northern Mountain, Path of Eastern Southern Mountain, Road to Manda

Path of Eastern Northern Mountains – The winds are strong in the winter and the snow falls deep. The spring brings light relief to these cold mountains. In the blizzards you can hear a phantom roar, it is apparent that creatures of some sort live on these hills. Leads to: Path of Forests, Path of the Eastern Desert

Path of the Eastern Desert – Typical of deserts, the Eastern Desert is very hot. However it seems as you travel farther east it seems to get hotter and hotter. When the wind blows westward, you swear you can hear a hum on the breeze. What could be at the end?

Path of Eastern Southern Mountains - The Mountains are lush with vegetation, and the weather is humid, forests of strange wood stick from the ground, different from the trees of the West. At times it seems the sun cannot get through the canopy and the forest is plunged into darkness. Leads to: Path of Rice

Path of Rice – Similarly to the plains these lands are flat, but don’t let the swaying fields of rice fool you. The ground is not always there, and can in fact, be a swamp. Those who aren’t wary will be sucked into its murky depths. Leads to: Path of Southern Plains, Road to Shingtao

Path of Southern Plains – The winds blow cool, but the weather is fine, the land is easy to walk though the scenery is plain. Occasionally there is a tree; otherwise there is not much to see. Leads to: The B’Jing Ruins

The B’Jing Ruins – A massive city with buildings seeming to scrape the heavens. Strange technology is everywhere and large warehouses are prominent. Despite the prevalent existence of mankind, nature seems to have taken quite a toll. Everywhere vines of all sorts cling to the great buildings and structures eroded beyond recognition. There is a charm to this cold husk of a place.

Path of Sands – The weather gets warmer as you journey south, the air is arid and the heat is merciless. The beasts of this land kill with deadly poisons; they await their prey in the heat of the sun. The nights are frigid, surprisingly enough. Leads to: Path of Jungle, Road to Nile

Path of Jungle – A dense brush makes the path almost impossible to see. In the humid jungle you are hunted both night and day. Even the plants here are a threat. However it is said that there are plants here with special healing properties. Perhaps you will brave the animals to acquire them. Leads to: The Great Desert, Road to Rica

The Great Desert – How could anyone survive there? It seems endless, sand, sand and more sand. You think you can spot a giant winged beast in the air, and something stirs beneath the sands. Could it be possible that a nomadic tribe lives within?

Path of Snow – The land transitions to one of ice and snow as you head farther north. The weather is frigid and you hear howls at night. Despite the cold, the land shows marks of heat, as the scars from time forgotten continue to burn. Leads to: Path of Northern Mountains, Outskirts of the Dead Zone

Path of The Northern Mountains – Your head feels lighter as you journey up these mountains. The snow is deep and if you come here ill prepared you will surely meet your end. There are various caves on these mountains some hiding lost technologies, others holding the remains of man. Leads to: Path of the Ice Field, Road to Svedway

Path of the Ice Field - This desolate field of ice can be seen as a desert of cold. It stretches for miles, with an indefinite end. The only thing definite being that it is bitter cold. There is no place to find shelter, aside from the occasional lump of ice. The winds blow mercilessly across at night. Some say that they see things beneath the ice.

Outskirts of the Dead Zone– There is a hum that is for sure, though from where it comes you don’t know. An immense heat seems to be emanating from the distance like a fallen star. There is a red haze in the sky, nothing lives here. Leads to: The Ruined Coast

The Ruined Coast – A deathly silent shore laden with a plethora of items you have never seen before. What are they for?

Bestiary

Bear - Regular brown bear. They are omnivores eating both meat and fruits, and are very protective of their cubs.

Boar - Bristly wild pigs with vicious tempers. Their meat is succulent, but killing one can prove dangerous. Just about anything can trigger the rage of a boar and they will ravage their target with their tusks.

Bolsho Beetle - Giant beetles the size of horses. They are a regularly docile herbivore species that live in swarms of 20 - 30. If they feel that their territory is being encroached upon they were become highly agitated and attack the threat relentlessly. In very rare cases, they have been domesticated by tribes and used for transport. Their horns are incredibly durable and sometimes harvested by hunters.

Cat - While many cats have become feral and mutated, the domesticated cat has changed only slightly. While retaining their aloof independence, they've become hunters, helping their masters hunt for food. They've also displayed limited Mental abilities such as being able to see through illusions, finding things or people, and augmenting the abilities of Mentals around them.

Chicken - Not much has changed for this flightless bird, though they do happen to grow plumper nowadays.

Craven - These mutations are much more aggressive than their scavenger ancestors, attacking anything that moves. They fly in huge flocks capable of filling the sky with darkness and their ominous caws. Their populations fluctuate in areas. At times they are a constant threat, while at others there is nothing to worry about. On the plus side, their vision has become greatly impaired.

Deer - Have remained vastly unchanged from before the white of night, however they have become much more plenteous do to the lack of huntsmen.

Dog - They've retained their role as man's best friend. It is of note that most dogs grow bigger and shaggier, perhaps as a result of the ice age following the Night of White.

Falcon - Due to the increase of game, falcons have become larger. They are still territorial and will attack those who go near their nests. They will chase those who have stolen their eggs. Some have managed to revive the art of falconry.

Firefly - Still the beautiful lights of the night, they have grown much friendlier flying closer to humans and other living things. However, don't let them land on any exposed skin. Their feet produce enzymes that when they touch flesh creates a burning sensation.

Horse - They are no longer as domesticated as they once were. However, oddly enough, they have not grown plentiful in the wild. They are however perhaps one of the most intelligent animals in the world known. All horses are telepaths, however there are a few trained (yes, trained) therapaths among their ranks. Horses are a proud people comprised of nomadic tribes.

Lynx - A solitary medium-sized hunting cat. They have grown very populous throughout the forests, mountains and tundra. The decrease in human population has led them to not fearing human-kind over the past few centuries. They've grown bolder in recent centuries and will attack if they're hungry enough or feel threatened.

Megalo Snail - A very, very, very large snail. Their shell could easily provide shelter for a family of four. They don't do much else beside eat. Even if you were to attack it, it'd just...eat. Their slime is a very useful lubricant.

Mountain Mouse - These evolved mice are commonly found in mountains and are much larger than the average mouse, scaling in size up to those of small beavers. They are known for their inexplicably durable teeth which allows them to chew through stone. They are regularly timid, unless defending their burrow.

Owl - The owl has remained relatively unchanged excluding one fact. Gazing into an owl's eyes leaves one in a trance-like stupor. It is an evolutionary adaptation that they have acquired to catch their prey.

Polar Hyena - No one is quite sure what caused the Hyena to journey northward following the Night of White, but it has adapted to the colder conditions outside of Africa and it's fur has taken on a lighter tone. It's cryptic laughter chills those who hear it in the night.

Rabbit - One of the most populous creatures in the world presently. They've remained relatively unchanged besides their ears getting longer and their fur thicker.

Red Deer - Like their cousins they appear docile, the sole distinction being the fiery reds and oranges of their pelts. However, do not let their innocence fool you. They are vicious carnivores, known for chasing down their prey and spearing it with its antlers before consuming the flesh. They mark their territory by smearing the blood on their antlers onto trees. Be wary of this marker.

Roc - No one is quite sure what this bird has evolved from, all they know is to run from it. The Roc is a giant bird, capable of picking up cows with its talons. As it is a carnivore, it will go after any prey it sees on the ground, including humans. Flaps from its wings send buffeting gales across the land and its talons are incredibly sharp.

Skyli - These dogs are most definitely a product of the Night of White. They are giant compared to the rest of their kin, and roughly the size of horses though shorter and come in various shades of white, grey, black and various mixtures in between. Their fur is shaggy and long, and is occasionally sheered from the dogs to be used by the locals for fur coats. They are vastly domesticated throughout the world and serve as a loyal horses of the new world. Even in the wild they are friendly to humans and easy to tame.

Vulfo - A very strange hybrid between wolf and fox. They are smaller than the average wolf though much larger than a fox. Their fur comes in shades of greys, blacks and reds, with their tail usually ending in a black tip. They are cunning creatures of the night, and hunt in packs that will attack humans if they're hungry. Some have managed to tame Vulfoes as hunting companions.

Wolf - The common wolf. Already honed to predatorial supremacy for thousands of years, not much has changed, aside from its lack of fear of humans. To the wolf, everything can be prey.

So John Woo meets martial arts and revolvers?

And the occasional kicking the tomahawk like a ball into someone's face. And maybe featuring a giant mecha made from various trains, just because.



On-Topic, I'll of course go for Technopath.

Alitheopath sounds right up my alley. Time to make some adjustments.

I'm gonna be an Evriskopath. Hehe.

I'm not exactly sure which one I'm drawn to....

If I join this, can Therepath heal themselves?

When I get over my mental laziness, I'm going to make an Alexipath character probably.

Hey wait, can we submit profiles now? I mean, this appears to be gaining a fair amount of interest, so...

Yes, they can heal themselves.


<3


Sure people can submit their profiles now if they'd like.
