Name:
Recipient: The Secrets magic system
Condition: A clear mind, intended recipient's AP address, the recipient's consent regarding the sharing of the information in question, and a small amount of stable source energy. (Scales with the physical distance the message must be sent.) Alternatively, cooperation from the Angel Raheal.
Effects:
 + Correct: Allows for free communication with the recipient, either directly between minds or between suitable mediums, such as books.
 0 Incorrect: A blaring dialup headache.
 - Cursed: This is a simple and safe spell, so the extent you could fuck it up would be to accidentally cast a different spell.
Acts consumed if any: Small amount of non-act magical energy.
Description: A system of protocols which would allow mortals to communicate using preexisting channels embedded into the contours of the world. Any information may be freely shared, including knowledge and instructions relating to The Secrets, making this a valuable spell for one who wishes to learn more.

Farmer's Reward Program
Whenever someone harvests an agricultural product, there is a random chance that they will receive a cute token with a cartoon on it. For plant products this token will have a picture of a Mortalized cartoon of the most popular local crop (ex a mortal with two eyes and two mouths in corn country would receive a token with a cartoon corn with two eyes and two mouths). For animal products, this will have a cute cartoon of the most popular local animal. In either case the other side of the coin has Harvey Harvest standing majestically in his coin field. These coins are metaphysical and non-transferable, while one can summon a coin to show it off nobody else can actually do anything besides see it.

To use these coins one must meditate at an appropriate totem pole, bringing there mind to the Farmer's Market. Here they can purchase a variety of Boons in return for their Tokens. Plant and Animal tokens are equivalent in value, however the rates are set so neither is inherently easier to get than the other (something like milking a cow daily will only give a small chance for a coin, while slaughtering a cow would give a chance for multiple coins for example). The power of the Boon is tied to the amount of tokens, with the more tokens spent representing more powerful Boons. Boons grow from the seed of mortal desire, if mortals wish to fly then a Boon allowing mortals to fly will appear in the Farmer's Market for an appropriate price. If mortals wish for health, a Boon granting health will appear in the Farmer's Market for an appropriate price. As a limitation it can not directly effect people other than the token spender. If one wishes to kill a rival, they would be capable of buying great strength or invisibility or the ability to shoot lasers out of their eyes, but they would not be able to cause the target to simply fall over dead.

This system of magic is based around *Faith Energy*, an invisible and intangible Energy formed whenever mortals pray or else provide devotion to a being they consider a 'god'
Faith energy is flavored based upon the deity or being warshiped, as an example- F.E. created by mortals devoted to Qwitzikottle could be described as "colored" maroon, while F.E. devoted to The Faceless Prince could be described as "colored" goldenrod.
Most faith energy doesn't actually 'stay' where it is manifested, instead dispersing to the world at large, but what little that does stay initially- sinks into the world, and slowly changes the places where it is to become a proper "solid container" for faith energy, gathering it in as though there was a gravitational flow.
Most mortals will never be able to interact with Faith energy at all, as the manipulation of it comes from a lifetime spent under exposure to it, becoming a vassal for its power.
The actual usage of Faith energy comes in the form of "Miracles" and "Holy objects" or "Relics".
   Miracles are the result of it being channeled through one who has spent their life living in a place of great Faith Energy, and come from one focusing heavily upon the 'image' of the event they wish to cause, whether that be the mending of flesh- or the striking of a nearby Heretic through divine flame
   Holy objects are the result of objects of religious significance being bathed in Faith Energy, but while Miracles are fairly free form, Holy objects simply bear powers relating to the stories and histories behind them, blades becoming far harder to damage, candles that will never burn out, so on.

Anti-Corruption
For anyone whose soul belongs to C'thun (including disembodied souls), if they perform the following actions ownership of their soul will transfer to the following entities. The following actions will also clear any mental influence related to C'thun. This will do nothing for those who do not owe their soul to C'thun. If a soul is not owned by C'thun but does have C'thun's mental influence, it will clear the mental influence without transferring the soul. It is only fair that we get a way to steal followers back. Soul ownership may change as normal after the switch is made.

If the Soul manages to escape a metaphysical labyrinth in their own mind, the difficulty of which is related to how deep their Corruption is, they claim ownership of their Soul for themselves. If they devoutly pray to a God or similar entity said God can offer aid to assist them in escaping.

If a Soul manages to Overpower a significant foe with magic, ownership of said soul will transfer to Twi.

If a Soul attempts to Research a way to escape C'thun's influence, they will discover a method that will transfer their soul to The Faceless Prince.

If a Soul attempts to escape C'thun's influence by traveling a great distance, their soul will transfer to The Wanderer

If a Soul eats anything moderately, farms anything, harvests anything, or meditates at a totem pole their soul will transfer to Harvey Harvest.

If a Soul revels in its Corruption and enjoys being under C'thun's influence, then the Anti-Corruption will have no effect and the soul will permanently belong to C'thun even if other actions are performed that would normally transfer their soul to another god. Any non-mundane attempt by C'thun to compel the corrupted to be happy will not count and will instead give ownership of the Soul to the mortal (as this is assumed to make them happy).

If a Soul attempts to escape C'thun by retreating to the wilderness, or defeats C'thun or any of their agents in a Competition, then their soul will transfer to Shinka.

If a Soul desires freedom from C'thun above everything else, their soul will transfer to Gibeele.

If a Soul attempts to escape C'thun's influence through Brutal methods, then their soul will transfer to Qwitzikottle.

If a Soul attempts to use C'thun's influence to benefit themselves, their soul will transfer to Susan.

If a Soul eats hungrily, their soul will transfer to the Flesh Conch of Screaming.

If a Soul looks directly at The Eye for five minutes, the Soul will transfer to The Eye.

If a Soul is killed by an agent of a God (such as an Angel or Archangel), ownership of the Soul will transfer to that entity.

Name: Murica
Neighbors: The Old World, Texas, Endless Blue, Carociber, (Singing Flesh)
Traits:
 + It is a teleporting valley! It appears very close to the other gods city’s and regions, and entices them in. It’s their own choice though.
 
+ It is filled with a bunch of hidden knowledge, magical secrets and fantastical beings.
 
- Living in this place lowers inhibitions and is populated by many magical and deadly creatures. May start to call people you dislike “commies”.

Description: A huge valley, covered in a gigantic forest. Although with a few mountains for natural resources here and there. Countless insignificant little critters run around to support the ecosystem and provide food. Living here will deepen your connection to C’thun. The forest itself is a little weird, the leaves are the color of blood and the bark looks like dried human skin. The water looks like black sludge and is very much a acquired taste. but it’s actually pretty good for you, with tons of health benefits. Once every year, one of C’thuns angels will appear and grant their deepest wish. For a price.

Name: Tumoors
Neighbors:
Region: Murica
Traits:
 + Resonant: The various tumourous provinces resonate with each other through magical music. By spending a week in a hallucinatory daze from constantly consuming the red BerryNights, a benign tumour will subsume one of a being's sight organs, making them a resonator. Resonators instinctively and precisely know the direction and distance of every resonant province, though with no identification of which resonant province is which. Potentially this makes for almost trivial navigation in combination with the sky axises. In addition, resonators may sacrifice stored bodily calories or calorie equivalents to the Tumoors, allowing them to propel themselves towards a resonant province of their choice. Toggleable free smart pathfinding is available. With no pathfinding, the resonator simply moves in a straight line to the target resonant province. With pathfinding on, the resonator is propelled along the predicted fastest path to the target resonant province, veering around obstacles and calculating in the effects of various speed-altering features such as the Polis Trade-Winds. Greater calorie consumption allows for greater speeds and phasing through obstacles and restraints. With clever switching between target resonant provinces, this allows for resonators to employ crude and limited multidirectional flight for combat or other purposes. It possible to starve yourself to death by poor management of resonant calorie sacrifice, making becoming a Resonator an easy method to lose those pounds. With the instantaneous sacrifice of roughly sufficient calories to cause a province-wide famine, it is possible to teleport all the way from one region to completely another region's resonant province. Shorter teleports are less calorie-intensive. The benign tumour is the link and familiar allowing for the sacrifice of calories to the Tumoors for magic, and if it is somehow removed the being ceases to be a resonator.

 + Rite of the Vital Missive: A resonator contractor of the Tumoors can expend nearly all the caloric energy in their body, putting them on the edge of death by starvation, in a highly unpleasant process involving hot wax or scalding sludge, to receive a important message that was irretrievably lost or destroyed before it could be delivered to its recipient, the object in question simply appearing in their possession. The contractor can sense the distance and direction towards the recipient and pull themselves towards it like they could with resonant provinces. The particular important missive is random, but the more caloric energy expended in the summoning, the more important the lost and then retrieved message generally is. The contracted deliveryperson is supernaturally lucky in avoiding harm, misfortune and death while they are actively attempting to deliver the message to its intended target. If successful in delivering the message, in addition to whatever reward the recipient may wish to grant them, the contractor will be healed of all wounds and ailments they may have gained in the course of delivering the message and gain good fortune for the next five years. This stacks if they can rapidly summon and deliver important messages in a short timeframe somehow. There is no particular danger to overuse of this rite, but a specific contractor can only be contracted to deliver a single vital retrieved missive at a time. Additionally, if the summoned vital missive is somehow lost or destroyed once more, the failure of a messenger suffers a year of bad luck.

 - Nightmarish: Any who spend more than a week in the Tumoors will suffer mild hallucinations and nightmares, even if they do not sleep, of the hills coming alive and wandering around like monstrous giants, devouring the living, or of the black sludge rising up and flooding everything or forgotten gods descending from the stars and causing a horrific rapture, or other cataclysmic events, usually linked to the land itself somehow being alive and malicious. These visions and dreams are incredibly vivid but do not linger very well, giving beings a good scare but only mildly impacting their mental health.
Description: The Tumoors is a hilly, swampy moor, full of the characteristic black sludge of Murica, though it has a significantly more meaty scent around these parts. The hills seem to swell and shrink slightly, as if breathing, and the heath looks disturbingly like hardened systems of capillaries branching into the air. The way the crows and rabbits stare at you is unnerving, the sounds you hear on moonless nights spine-chilling and vaguely blasphemous. The red berries, named BerryNights growing from certain shrubs are potent hallucinatory agents.

Name: Singing Flesh
Neighbors: (Texas, Murica, Land of Wizny, Farmaland, Central Garden, Pastures, Trunthia Multa, Yamayunqa, Rivers, Carociber)
Traits:
 + The Flesh That Moves: The autonomic processes of the Singing Flesh causes it to cyclically drift closer to one of its neighbours through processes of wild fringe flagella flagellating and focused directional humming. It then eats a part of the neighbour before leaving behind scent markers and moving on to the next neighbour. The scent markers will keep the Singing Flesh away from an island for at least several decades before they fade enough for it to wander there again, unless some outside force were to remove them.
+/- Made of Meat: The Singing Flesh is made of flesh and music. Its flesh is very tasty and nutritious for meat-eating life, but not really suited for things like growing conventional plants. It is never quiet which may annoy some.
 -  The Flesh that Eats: Anything not made of meat, bone, or assorted other animal body parts, is assimilated/merged into the Singing Flesh and transmuted into flesh when it comes into contact. Thus stone buildings built on it would not remain stone for long, wood and non-meat plants are turned into meat, and other islands it bumps into would merge with it at the contact and start turning to flesh until eventually the Singing Flesh rips away from them to move on with a large chunk of stolen transmuted flesh.
Description: While not in any way a thinking being or self-aware, the Singing Flesh is very much a living organism, a landmass of flesh and bile and cartilage and fat and muscle, with a halo-fringe of waving tentacles around its edges, questing eternally in a blind idiot fashion for nearby land to connect to and turn into more Singing Flesh to merge back into the main body. Its senses are dull and mostly scent and touch based, linking to distributed clusters of nerves that mostly direct it towards nearby scented landmasses to consume parts of them. Beyond its mindless quest to feed, it simply exists, as land is wont to do, uncaring of creatures living on or around it, eating its flesh, paratizing on its veins of melody, building grand pyramids on its plateaus, ploughing through meat-fields to sow meat-plants or even slowly poisoning it in a quest to end its reign of terror against their homelands. That said, non-meat materials that come into contact with the Singing Flesh simply become more Singing Flesh, probably making architecture and agriculture a challenge.
The Singing Flesh is home to all sorts of meat-eating life, including parasitic meat plants that grow roots into its lymph nodes to feed themselves, hungry hyenas that gnaw through thick scabs of keratin and cartilage to get to the tastiest meat, Hazard vultures that devour promising looking tumours and gallbladders, decadent tigers that disdain eating the land itself, instead hunting only other animals, to name only a few members of the meat ecosystem.

Name: Wellsprings of Meatas
Neighbors: Meaty River Valley
Region: Singing Flesh
Traits:
 + Touch of Meatas: Any being that bathes in the hot springs of Meatas is granted the boon of turning anything they touch into meat, if it isn't already. Beings always count as touching themselves, if they are not yet made of meat somehow. They cannot turn this off, if they would want to for some reason. The effect is permanent.
+/- The Gate, The Key: The planar membrane is thin at the Wellsprings, making it exceptionally easy for outsiders to enter here, or be summoned here. Outsiders can stay in the world longer while remaining within the Wellsprings province. However, they always appear within the hot springs, meaning they always gain the boon and the curse of the Wellsprings. Mortals or animals may sometimes deliberately or accidentally wander into other planes through rips that do not persist longer than a few moments.
 - Curse of Hunger: Any being that bathes in the hot springs of Meatas gains a great, but satiable on a daily basis, hunger for meat and flesh. Usually not a problem on the Singing Flesh, but if the the cursed resist their hunger too long their personalities will begin to warp and they will suffer from hallucinations and delusions. Their bodies will also begin to reject their souls until they give in, break the curse, or die from having their souls ejected from their bodies.
Description: A terraced mountain range of sickly greenish yellow hot springs welling up from some unclean depth of the Singing Flesh, filling the air with thick chemical scents. The springs are pleasantly warm, and will eat away dead skin, making them excellent as an exfoliant. The sound of fluids flowing from terrace to terrace as the pools overflow creates pleasing harmonies. These springs are actually digestive fluids of the Singing Flesh welling up from some misaligned digestive track or ulcerated stomach, but given that the Singing Flesh does not, cannot, digest meat, it is harmless to most beings that can safely inhabit the Singing Flesh and thus this is not really that important. The springs are full of cute rainbow coloured shrimp, who blow comforting bubbles and rapidly tap and drum on their own or each others exoskeletons to create tunes as mating rituals.

Meaty River Valley
Neighbours: Wellsprings of Meatas
Region: Singing Flesh
Traits:
 + Safe: There are no dangerous animals, geomeatical instabilities, risky weather patterns or other potential natural clamtastrophes in this area, making it the perfect place for some theoretical fledgling civilization to begin itself.
 + Vast: This province is pretty large, perhaps enough for two cities instead of one.
 - Cognitohazard: The more generations of a particular group of mortals that live successively in the valley, the more prone their group are to paranoia and other strains of mental illness. Especially common is claims that the Singing Flesh speaks to them, despite the Singing Flesh being incapable of even understanding the concept of language. Cults and strange religious practices crop up like mushrooms after spring rain, many cult leaders calling themselves Cognito, and despising hazard vultures, for some reason. Strange and dangerous ideas spread more easily, and people begin to crave known cognitohazards, like Fruits of Forbidden Knowledge, suffering from a growing desire to eat or be effected by them.
Description: A large and peaceful valley of plenty located near the center of the Singing Flesh. Bees collect nectar from the fields and fields of pretty meatflowers, making delicious honey, red like blood. Carp play happily in the great river flowing through its center, a thick torrent of sweat, drool and effluvia from the Mountains of Meatas. Yet there is a hidden sinisterness beneath the image of meaty peace and bounty, a muttering echo in the subconscious that one cannot hear which suspects is there.

Name: Tormour
Neighbors: Wellsprings of Meatas
Region: Singing Flesh
Traits:
 + Resonant: The various tumourous provinces resonate with each other through magical music. Any being that touches the Tormour gains a benign tumorous growth in the touched body part, becoming a resonator (Excessive touching of the Tormour is inadvisable and potentially fatal). Resonators instinctively and precisely know the direction and distance of every resonant province, though with no identification of which resonant province is which. Potentially this makes for almost trivial navigation in combination with the sky axises. In addition, resonators may sacrifice stored bodily calories or calorie equivalents to the Tormour, allowing them to propel themselves towards a resonant province of their choice. Toggleable free smart pathfinding is available. With no pathfinding, the resonator simply moves in a straight line to the target resonant province. With pathfinding on, the resonator is propelled along the predicted fastest path to the target resonant province, veering around obstacles and calculating in the effects of various speed-altering features such as the Polis Trade-Winds. Greater calorie consumption allows for greater speeds and phasing through obstacles and restraints. With clever switching between target resonant provinces, this allows for resonators to employ crude and limited multidirectional flight for combat or other purposes. It possible to starve yourself to death by poor management of resonant calorie sacrifice, making becoming a Resonator an easy method to lose those pounds. With the instantaneous sacrifice of roughly sufficient calories to cause a province-wide famine, it is possible to teleport all the way from one region to completely another region's resonant province. Shorter teleports are less calorie-intensive. The benign tumour is the link and familiar allowing for the sacrifice of calories to the Tormour for magic, and if it is somehow removed the being ceases to be a resonator.

 + Zodiac of the Ninth Pasture: As a contractor of Tormour, the resonator may spend bodily caloric energy (or equivalent) to summon outsiders, this being far easier and simpler than most other rites or methods. The outsiders are compelled into a period of service determined by the amount of caloric sacrifice to Tormour. The outsiders are further prevented from harming their summoning Resonator without explicit commands to do such. Frequent usage causes the Resonator's Tumour Familiar to grow and spread throughout their body, potentially disabling or killing them eventually.

 - Haunted: Except for causing tumours on contact, the Tormour is also haunted by ghosts, restless spirits and vengeful spectres who will attempt to possess, kill or curse anyone who who wanders this place.

Description: A great calcified and keratinous tor lodged into the side of the Meatas mountain range with various formations and crevasses forming a parody of a leering face. Within its mountainous, rocky shell squirms a living god-tumour, hungry for sacrifices from contractors, crooning happily to greet any visitors. The remnants of summonings gone wrong, lost grudge-spirits, the souls of dead contractors and assorted other events of ill omen wreathe it in a halo of mild misfortune. It is largely barren and lifeless except for the hardiest of organisms.

Name: Carociber
Neighbors: Trunthia Malta, Trunthia Mazia, Pastures, Underneath, Farmaland, Central Garden, Texas, Murica, Endless Blue, Rivers, (Singing Flesh)
Traits:
 + Evolution in motion; the flesh creatures of this region adapt quickly, and violently, for there is only one thing to eat here, and if one is not eating they are being eaten.
 + Flesh horror; This region is made mostly from flesh, its "plants" are flesh, and even its few rivers and lakes are technically flesh through being made of blood.
 - Not for mortal enjoyment; Born from a shard of a gods divine plane, the living region is very much NOT safe for mortals- between exceptionally vicious flesh creatures, rains of blood akin to acid, and the movements of the land as it's fleshy ground seeks prey for itself- seeking to live here is a poor choice
Description: A Gory mass of hungering flesh and viscera drawn from the sea of blood "pretending" to be a region, vaguely wrapped around a mountainous shard of Kottun'Rah that keeps it substantiated within the world.

Name: Tlakuepali'Ies
Neighbors: N/A
Region: Carociber
Traits:
 + Planer Anchor; Possessing a 'tight' binding to its origin, even separated by an entire plane- it allows the outsiders of Qwitzikottle's plane to remain within the world within a region's distance of it, though it works most strongly upon those who are in direct contact
 + An odd sort of 'gateway'; those who sleep upon Tlakuepali'Ies will find themselves awakening within Tun'goul until they find the release of death, similarly those who find the place it was plucked from from within may 'escape' Tun'goul for a time, though as with all outsiders will not be able to go far without proper ritual and binding.
 - Interplaner misplacement; Occasionally souls destined for Tun'goul instead find themselves here; tied to this shard of the mountain of Glory
Description: a mountainous 'shard' of Kottun'Rah- the mountain of Glory- held tightly at the center of the region by the masses of flesh that make up Carociber

Name: Rivers
Neighbors: Endless Blue, Driftlands, Polis, Central Garden, Truntia Multa, Carociber, (Singing Flesh)
Traits:
 + The constant flow makes it easy to travel in one direction: provided you can float.
 - Nowhere to build.
Description: An extensive web of flowing water, connecting the shores of large landmasses without need for flight.
Ecosystem: Various freshwater fish and turtles, as well as algae and unmoored aquatic plants.

Name: The endless blue
Neighbors: Everything, (vertical [below] adjacency)
Traits:
 + Massive; This region takes up a significantly larger area, and in turn contains more 'provinces' worth space
 + Massive; This region takes up a significantly larger area, and in turn contains more 'provinces' worth space
 - insubstantial; This region near totally lacks solid land, resulting in anything sinking in it almost always falling out the other side- and providing practically nowhere to build permanent structures on
Description: a truly massive Free-floating "ocean" sitting 'below' most of the islands making up the rest of the world, home to a number of generic fish.

Melodic Ecosystem: A complete musical ecosystem, all the way from the basis of humming algae and plankton, violonisto kelp clusters drifting through the water with no ground to anchor them, serving as a home to bardx fish and song-crabs, to bass bass, soprano angelfish, metal barracuda, death metal shark frenzies, opera whales, choral dolphins, symphonic salmon swimming up kilometres long waterfalls to to spawn in the floating island regions.

Name: The white cap
Neighbors: n/a
Region: The Endless Blue
Traits:
 +Solid ground; This is a solid province in a region that is rather biased towards fish
 - Ice ice more ice; This Province is largely made of ice, ice and more ice, with little 'real' ground- and the poor wildlife that previously lived where this province was terraformed into existence are by majority frozen inside.
Description: A province sized iceberg floating around in The Endless Blue, no 'native' wildlife, but home to migratory birds some parts of the year.

Name: Dagun
Neighbors:
Region: Endless Blue
Traits:
 + The souls of the dead are drawn here and then passed to the afterlife
+ Extremely magnetic
 - Extremely radioactive
Description: A giant pearl deep deep deep within the Endless Blue, it contains within itself several compartments and corridors, each seemingly leading to another room with no observable utility. The surfaces within Dagun are a sterile white. There is nothing inside beyond this. The exterior of the pearl is highly magnetised and will in time, attract many metallic particles and objects to it. It is also, extremely radioactive. The souls of the dead are drawn here for processing into the afterlife - if they have not already been drawn elsewhere.

Name: Great House of Cancer
Neighbors: None?
Region: The Endless Blue
Traits:
 + Resonant: The various tumourous provinces resonate with each other through magical music. Any being meditates on one of the bone monoliths of the Great House of Cancer gains a benign tumour in the part of the body that was touching the monolith, becoming a resonator (Excessive meditation to gain wisdom may be unwise). Resonators instinctively and precisely know the direction and distance of every resonant province, though with no identification of which resonant province is which. Potentially this makes for almost trivial navigation in combination with the sky axises. In addition, resonators may sacrifice stored bodily calories or calorie equivalents to the Great House of Cancer, allowing them to propel themselves towards a resonant province of their choice. Toggleable free smart pathfinding is available. With no pathfinding, the resonator simply moves in a straight line to the target resonant province. With pathfinding on, the resonator is propelled along the predicted fastest path to the target resonant province, veering around obstacles and calculating in the effects of various speed-altering features such as the Polis Trade-Winds. Greater calorie consumption allows for greater speeds and phasing through obstacles and restraints. With clever switching between target resonant provinces, this allows for resonators to employ crude and limited multidirectional flight for combat or other purposes. It possible to starve yourself to death by poor management of resonant calorie sacrifice, making becoming a Resonator an easy method to lose those pounds. With the instantaneous sacrifice of roughly sufficient calories to cause a province-wide famine, it is possible to teleport all the way from one region to completely another region's resonant province. Shorter teleports are less calorie-intensive. The benign tumour is the link and familiar allowing for the sacrifice of calories to the Great House of Cancer for magic, and if it is somehow removed the being ceases to be a resonator.

 + Carcinization: As a contractor of the Great House of Cancer, a resonator may burn caloric energy(or equivalent) to adapt to an adverse environmental danger by somehow becoming more crablike, such as gaining book gills to breathe underwater, or a exoskeleton to protect against arid conditions or turning their white blood cells into tiny crabs to easily defeat some disease, or gaining the robust cell structure of Great House of Cancer native crab types to resist radioactivity. Additionally, the resonator may instead become more deadly and durable in combat by somehow becoming more crablike like gaining fearsome pincers or a durable crab exoskeleton. Carcinization can also be used to recover from injuries or dismemberment. Changes are inheritable and generally irreversible except for using carcinization to overwrite crabbiness with different crabbiness. Overuse causes the resonator to become a very dangerous, durable and enduring crab who is filled with cancers that increases its bodily functioning. Resonators can generally manage to assume their place near the top of any particular food-chain with this magic.

 - Radioactive: The entire Great House of Cancer is highly radioactive with all the potential health risks that implies. The native life is somewhat resistant to this.

Description: A relatively plain plain of golden hairgrass, yellow meat-weeds and yolk-coloured skin-lichen growing out of and on top of the cancerous ground of this province filled with lakes and rivers of tears and sweat. The animal life is exclusively some form of crab, from conventional crabs to flying crabs to giant land-crabs to canny hermit crabs to pit-trap digging crabs to web-weaving crabs etc. The entire province is filled with odd yellowish bone monoliths of various sizes and heights, that draw out the fixed constellations and stars of the heavens in a grand star map. They regrow in their fixed positions if damaged or destroyed, and attempts to alter or add to the starmap with invalid stars are aggressively devoured by swarms of crabs that congregate from the surrounding area. It updates itself if fixed astronomical bodies are somehow added or removed.

Name: Drift King
Affiliation: Drift King, Gibeele
Class: Creature
Traits:
 + The King is an exceptional flier, and enjoys nothing more than to race around the changing landscape.
 + Scales of chitin protect the King from the worst effects of magic.
 - Any dragon needs a hoard, so the King may occasionally relieve others of their shinies to grow His own hoard.
Description: This is a former winged eel, now grown into a huge fluffy insectoid dragon: a serpent lined with colorful butterfly wings, plated with white-furred chitin, and with a head topped by branching antennae. It feeds not by devouring lesser organisms, but by dipping its proboscis into wells of magic energy and drinking them dry. The King's domain is in the Driftlands which it protects from any fell incursions, but leave it be and it will not bother you.

Name: The Ferrous Wyrm
Affiliation: The Faceless Prince
Class: Creature
Traits:
 + More than Clever: The Wyrm, suffused with the power of half a Knowledge Act, is of an intelligence above the typical Creature, in fact approaching that of an Angel. This allows it to learn at a greatly increased rate, as well as make use of tactics and strategies that would never even be possible considerations to a typical Creature.
 + Good, Solid Steel: There is a weight to the Wyrm's structure, the metal of its body lending it exceptional durability. Strictly speaking, that same metal also holds an exceptional edge where the Wyrm's shell bears blades, but in the realm of Incarnate combat, they are ultimately about as dangerous as any Creature's natural weapons.
 - Auric Arrogance: The Wyrm is... not wonderful at judging the bounds of its ability. This can result in it attempting to do things that it cannot, in fact, do. The fact that such things are few and far between only makes this habit worse.
Description: The 'shell' is a massive, serpentine mechanism, bearing great resemblance to a golden train. In fact, it essentially is a giant, golden (well, pyrite) train, suffused with divine power, although where such a vehicle would have wheels, the Wyrm instead has a strange combination of legs and wings. Stranger is the Wyrm's 'interior' - something not immediately evident to an investigator, even if they were to open the Wyrm's shell to study it. The consciousness that controls the Wyrm, in fact, is a rust-colored slime mold colony that makes its home in the shell. Other specimens can be found through the Old World, animating otherwise-inanimate artifacts, but the Wyrm is unquestionably the greatest of these colonies.

Name: Eater
Affiliation (list all applicable gods, primary first): Eating, Flesh Conch of Screaming
Class: Creature
Traits:
 + Regenerates rapidly from damage. Capable of eating just about anything no matter how toxic or dangerous, just toughing through the damage with its regeneration.
 + Will grow larger, stronger, and more durable over time the more it eats.
 - Unable to be directed. Communication of any sort will be very difficult.
Description: Resembling a large sixteen armed octopus with heads at the end of its arms, or perhaps a hydra-kraken. A strong swimmer, the Eater will move from region to region through the Endless Blue, before rapidly propelling itself from the water to catapult itself onto the floating islands, then devouring all that it can in its path before diving back into the below-sea. It has a very effective digestive system, allowing it to gain sustenance from just about it anything with even a hint of edibility, even dirt, clay or wood. As an incarnae of the Flesh Conch of Screaming, its feeding frenzies helps to somewhat sate the constant need to eat of the Flesh Conch of Screaming, but it is driven so mad by its constant hunger that it cannot follow even simple commands. Is probably resistant to some forms of cognitohazards by virtue of not being smart enough, but who knows.

Name: Arko
Affiliation: Qwitzikottle
Class: Creature
Traits:
 + hermaphrodite; Passively spawns 'critters' of the same basic species; eg 'Giant omnivorous snails covered in mushrooms'
 + anti-memetic spores; the 'Fungai' infesting Arko passively give off spores that cause animals big and small to simply ignore him
 - moves at the speed of smell; Its a gargantuain snail, 'moving quickly' isn't within its bag of tricks
Description: A gargantuan snail that could be mistaken for a small mountain, covered with a forest of Fungal growths.

Name:The caravan leader
Affiliation (list all applicable gods, primary first):The Wanderer
Class: Creature
Traits:
 + As fast as a runner: has incredible speed in any form of mundane movement
 + As scary as an army marching: Their image terrify all that stand oppose them
 - As bright as a lantern, as load as a travel song: cannot hide, all in their surrounding know their location and movement their intention are clear to all that see or hear them.

Name: Bashur
Affiliation (list all applicable gods, primary first): Susan
Class: Monument
Traits:
 + Clouds the Eye's sight in the region, redirecting it to other regions
 + Can make a free ritual/rite per turn
 - Making a free rite/ritual creates Suspicion
Description: A great lake within Yorta is present. It is clear and translucent, allowing those from above to see its very bottom. On the bottom of the lake are the skeletal remains of a giant wyrm composed of glass, steel, brass, paperworkium and other elements. Overall, it possesses a mechanical aesthetic. This being, though unmoving, is Bashur.

Name: The Painted Spire
Affiliation: The Faceless Prince
Class: Monument
Traits:
 + Learning Library: Not only is the Painted Spire home to countless works of literature of all kinds, but learning information here is also much simpler for any who might attempt it.
 + Pax Scholastica: Within the Painted Spire, none who come in the name of learning may come to harm. It is a neutral location, where any who wish to study may do so unmolested.
 - Tempus Fugit: It is impossible to tell time here. Even if a time-telling device was brought in, it would cease to function or be comprehensible within the premises. This can render it very difficult to avoid overshooting any urgent deadlines.
Description: A spiraling tower of dizzying height, the Painted Spire is a vast library, containing nearly the whole sum of mortal knowledge, and some tidbits beyond it. Which, admittedly, is essentially naught at present, but will rapidly become a great deal more once mortals actually exist. The exterior is elaborately decorated in beautiful patterns of purple, black, and gold.

Name: Qwitzikottle 2
Affiliation: Qwitzikottle

Class: War Form
Traits:
 + Courage Inversion; The war form possesses the ability to rob its victims of their Courage, in turn magnifying their fears
 + Avatar of Brutality; this War form is surrounded by an 'Aura' of brutality, which causes even the slightest injury to become significantly more deadly- paper cuts and scratches to gaping wounds, etc
 - Avatar of Brutality; Their 'Aura' effects them just as indiscriminately as it does anyone else in the area
Description: a rapidly rotating Great icosahedron made of bladed teeth.

Name: The Author of the Ending
Affiliation: The Faceless Prince
Class: War Form
Traits:
 + Arcane Prowess: The Author's knowledge of all things ending-related extends both to a nigh-endless array of death-dealing magics, as well as the most effective manner of applying them to end their opponent.
 + Sudden Twist: An unforeseen strike, avoided by chance; a certain hit, dodged by a hair. The Author is skilled at turning opponents' strikes aside, avoiding what appears to be all but destined.
 - Fragile as Plot: The Author depends on avoiding strikes, because where such manage to land, the Author is poorly suited to take a hit.
Description: A weathered gold humanoid, blank of face, wearing flowing paper robes, nearly black with text written upon them. They bear only a pen in their right hand, but the ink that flows from it bends to their will.

Name: Devourer
Affiliation (list all applicable gods, primary first): Flesh Conch of Screaming
Class: War Form
Traits:
 + Can heal itself by eating chunks of its opponents
 + Deadly
 - The Flesh Conch of Screaming is unable to contemplate, accept, acknowledge or carry out peaceful resolutions to conflict, retreat or surrender while mantling the Devourer War-Form.
Description: Veins of death-screams woven into a song-tapestry, intertwined with constantly budding and chanting mouths, their flailing tongues covering the air around it with a faint mist of saliva and constant war-chants and wordless keening death-dirges. The Devourer vaguely resembles a six-legged tiger made of mouths, all sinuous deadly grace and vaguely melodious screaming.

Name: A-Team
Affiliation: Shinka
Class: Angels
Traits:
 + Cool: The A-Team have ice-themed powers for combat purposes.
 + Awesome: The aura of awe surrounding the A-Team helps secure the cooperation of other entities, even those which would not normally be expected to feel awe, like rocks.
 - Radical: Being angels of competition, the A-Team are extremely fractious and cannot be expected to work together to fulfill a goal. Instead, they will tend to break up into groups each attempting to approach the mission its own way.
Description: Giant spiky ice monsters, slightly ethereal.

Name: E-Team
Affiliation: Shinka
Class: Angels
Traits:
 + Manipulators of Wind: These ones have wind- and air-themed powers, accompanied by a soft blue glow effect.
 + Protectors of the Wild: The E-Team are at home in nature, which they are charged with defending against the encroachment of civilization, although they must allow mortals a fair chance against them.
 - Totally undisciplined: There's no angelic hierarchy here: members of the E-team expect to receive orders directly from Shinka or, at best, from a direct subordinate.
Description: Werewolves, also somewhat ethereal.

Name: Dealbrokers
Affiliation: The Faceless Prince, whoever hires them
Class: Angels
Traits:
 + Any Price, Paid: In any contract a Dealbroker makes, they can always provide what they have promised. Untold riches, true love, arcane knowledge - they can grant it. Whether they will promise such things is another question, but no promise they make will go unfulfilled for lack of ability, at least on the mortal scale. Those mortals who are truly powerful may be able to afford even more - but the eyes of the gods are upon them, and potentially even the watch of the Eye.
 + Perpetually On Call: It is simple for mortals to call on the Dealbrokers, and any mortal eager to make contact with one (or any generic "entity I can make a deal with to get stuff") will find that their means of summoning - whatever they may be - will be successful, though they may also color the Dealbroker's opinion of their customer, and cause them to alter what they are willing to offer accordingly.
 - An Exacting Tongue: Dealbrokers will provide the service they have promised for the cost they have demanded. No more, and no less. It is of utmost importance that any orders or requests made of them are made with absolute specificity.
Description: The Dealbrokers are (faceless, of course) brass humanoids clad in the raiment of wealthy traders - and ultimately, that is what they are. Though the Faceless Prince and their Incarnae may make the highest-level deals, and rituals to make trade with them may one day be made, in the interim and for more esoteric exchanges, the Dealbrokers are the Faceless Prince's middlemen and traders.

Name: The Elder Things
Affiliation: C’thun
Class: Angel
Traits:
 + Mad Biologists: They have in-depth knowledge of every being created and every being that will be created and using this information for terrifying experiments.

 + Insane Science: The Elder Things can bend the very fabric of reality in order to get their machines. Magic and science combined doesn’t let you create a deadly magical virus? Boom, reality = bitch and it happens. Basically, their inventions can be made to work when every magical or scientific knowledge says they can’t.

- Bro, do you even lift?: No, they don’t. They are about as strong as a wet paper bag.

Description: Elder Things stand at roughly six feet tall and have the appearance of a huge, oval-shaped barrel with starfish-like appendage at both ends. The top appendage is a head adorned with five eyes, five eating tubes, and a set of prismatic cilia for "seeing" without light. The bottom appendage was five-limbed and was used for walking and other forms of locomotion. They also had five leathery retractable wings, which they used to hover as they had not the strength to fly.

They also have five sets of tentacles that sprout from their torsos, which are used for swimming and manipulation of finer tools.

The Elder Things are vegetable-like in shape, having vegetable as well as animal characteristics. The Elder Things reproduced through the release of spores which eventually grow into a baby Elder thing. They feed on anything they can find, organic or inorganic. They are also amphibious, able to live on land as well as in the water.

The bodies of The Elder Things are weird. They can withstand the deepest ocean pressure or the hottest of temperatures, but are very weak physically and very easily injured. Typically, the first invention an Elder Thing makes is protection for its weak body.

Their blood is thick and black and had a horrible, indescribable stench that was detectable from very far away if you knew what you were looking for.

Name: Envoy-Maws
Affiliation (list all applicable gods, primary first): Gorging
Class: Angels
Traits:
 + Proxy Feeding: The mouths of the Envoy-Maws lead into a portal that teleports all they consume into the stomach of the Flesh Conch of Screaming, feeding it. This makes them immune to the negative effects of most things they eat, and means they will never be full, thus never halting consumption. Notably the Flesh Conch of Screaming is not particularly protected from side-effects of all this dubious food teleported into themselves.
 + Pack Hunters: Though forsaking all masters, the Envoy-Maws work perfectly among themselves, tending to move together in one large mass, almost like a devouring super-organism. Every Envoy-Maw experiencing what every other Envoy-Maw eats, reveling in the tastes and sensations of endless feasting and stripping the flesh from meaty sky-comets or megafauna like angelic piranhas.
 - Traitorous: The Envoy-Maws refuse to be subordinate to anyone except their own endless hunger, though they may pretend for a while if it suits their purposes.
Description: Giant gaping disembodied mouths filled with sharp and deadly teeth, and tongues capable of beautiful song when they are not busy eating. Somehow, they perceive the world and fly around, searching for things to devour. They are completely unable to enter the Starved Feast plane specifically, not that the Flesh Conch of Screaming is scared or anything.

Name: Pages
Affiliation: The Faceless Prince, the Argent Emissary
Class: Angels
Traits:
 + Observant: The Pages are excellent observers, taking in information and easily remembering it to be relayed to whomever requires it. Little escapes their sight.
 + Skilled combatants: Although they are in very good physical shape, the Pages' combat skill derives more from their sheer skill in wielding their weapons of choice, as well as their excellent coordination.
 - Awkward at interaction: No Page is good at interacting with others, although each manifests it somewhat differently. One is shy, another all too talkative, yet another outright hostile. No matter the cause, Pages are best kept away from situations where they need to talk to mortals.
Description: Faceless paper soldiers, each Page is slightly unique, wielding a different type of weapon and covered in a subtly different arrangement of glowing runes. Each is winged, and wears a set of relatively light armor, although the latter is mostly an affectation; their runes and speed do more to protect them from hits than any armor they wear. One and all wear a feathered tricorne hat, and each one's feather is in a different color.

Name: Enspherents
Affiliation: Qwitzikottle
Class: Angels
Traits:
 + Domain Lord; Enspherents are capable of manipulating the land and the wild beasts in an area 1/3 a province in diameter for the purposes of building their 'outer body' and stocking their events.
 + Planer Anchor; Enspherents are significantly more difficult to banish.
 - Surprizingly brittle; The true body of an Enspherent is exceptionally weak, unable to directly harm even the weakest of mortal infants- and in turn only needing a few good smacks from an ill child to be killed off.
Description: the 'true' body of an Enspherent is a crystalline Gyroscope covered in a multitude of eyes, while the 'outer' body is an earthen structure grown and customized to best fit the needs of the specific Enspherent.
created by Qwitzikottle to host tests, trials, arenas, and gauntlets to promote the growth of exceptional mortals and beasts through deadly combat and enticing rewards.

Name: Trandarc
Affiliation: C’thun
Class: Angel
Traits:
 + Very charismatic and sliver tongued. He appears as someone’s favorite or most loved person, a idealized version.

 + Can give followers of C’thun/himself different powers and forms depending on their deepest desires and feelings.

 - A strong dislike of gods other then C’thun as they give him nausea and feelings of weakness.

Description: A shapeshifting angel. It appears to all mortals in need and helps them by giving them power that they need, and in exchange, they become C’thuns devoted follower and servant. People rarely refuse his offer because of his mastery of psychology and speech. It also helps that he appears to people in dire need. He reports to C’thun whenever something important happens.

Name:Raheal of Eternal Service
Affiliation (list all applicable gods, primary first):Susan, Twi, The Faceless Prince, The Wanderer, Harvey Harvest, C'thun, Shinka, Gibeele, Qwitzikottle
Class:Angel
Traits:
 + Omnipresent and consequently, difficult to destroy in the material plane
 + That which is spoken to Raheal may be communicated to another divinely touched, loved, or blessed via Raheal instantaneously
 -  Without will or opinion on the matters of the world or gods; it will not evend defend itself.
Description: Theoretically an infinitely long coil of optic fibre wires in the shape of a lamprey, Raheal is more often than not, in a diffused state of drifting iotas. That is, a cloud of gas. A cloud of gas that is found throughout the whole world. It is, as such, incredibly difficult to detect naturally. Raheal however, can be called upon by those divinely touched, loved, or blessed by the gods. In doing so, A small figment of Raheal can be conjured from the cloud, and Raheals spoken to. Messages can be given to Raheal verbally, via letter or typed - Raheal figments are equipped with a graphical interface and input system -  who will then faithfully deliver that message to the intended recipient anywhere in the material plane. This is usually instantaneous due to Raheal being everywhere, and as such, can form new figments to deliver said message. Each message is exactly as written/stated/typed by the sender.

Name: The Iron Traveler
Affiliation: The Faceless Prince, The Wanderer, Gibeele
Class: Angel
Traits:
 + Trinkets for Trade: The Iron Traveler is a gracious wanderer, and any kindnesses visited upon it are wont to be repaid. Depending on the magnitude of the kindness given - not merely in terms of raw amount, but also from how much it cost the giver to provide it (that is, the same kindness from a prince or a pauper will have very different results) - the Traveler may provide anything from useful-but-mundane items to works of arcane artifice that, while not history-changing, may still be life-changing. However, kindness given for its own sake is valued more highly than that given with the expectation of reward; the Traveler will not look particularly highly on those who seek to entreat it solely to gain its rewards.
 + A Myriad Iron Faces: The Iron Traveler is capable of molding its appearance to come across as a mundane mortal, although those sensitive to magic may likely be able to see through its disguises. The Traveler values their ability to travel unseen, after all, and experience the world as any traveler might (or at least, any given the resources of the divine). No matter the face, however, the Traveler will always have either an iron-grey or rust-red pallor to them.
 -  Wanderlust: The Iron Traveler never remains in one place for any length of time, and rarely returns swiftly. It is simply not within their nature.
Description: The Traveler is defined less by their personal appearance - an aspect in which they are unbound - but by the clothes they choose to wear. Typically, they bear a plain white scarf around their neck, and a wide-brimmed conical hat the gold of straw adorns their head. When wearing a face for which such clothings are applicable, their shirt, too, is a plain - if moderately dirtied - white, while their trousers are a fading brown. In terms of behaviour, they travel from locale to locale, seeing what is around and conducting petty trades with those they encounter.

Name: Reaping Rachel
Affiliation (list all applicable gods, primary first): Harvey Harvest
Class: Archangel
Traits:
 + Stalk Scythe Skilled: Capable of using a scythe proficiently both in combat and its intended use of picking up crops. Even crops that arn't scythed down. Don't ask how.
 + Life Lender: Gives life-force to surrounding entities, causing plants and animals to grow faster and more hearty while healing wounds.
 - Silent Scyther: Incapable of speech. Can only deliver messages by gesturing and the like.
Description: A figure entirely hidden in a cloak made from a corn husk with a scyth made from a corn stalk. Nobody knows what she looks like underneath, but the figure is easy enough for mortals to make as charms during the harvest season. Made to protect the world (especially from Noise) and limit the harm done to mortal kind.

Name: The Argent Emissary
Affiliation: The Faceless Prince
Class: Archangel
Traits:
 + Charismatic: As the manifestation of the Faceless Prince's will, the Argent Emissary was made to talk to and convince others. Few could be fully unswayed by a debate with the Emissary.
 + Martial excellence: Although it is not their primary purpose, the Emissary is a highly capable military commander, and given command of capable combatants, they can direct victories against hypothetically-superior forces.
 - Lack of personal prowess: Although they are competent enough at combat, with power beyond any mortal and maneuverability beyond any Creature, the Emissary would be hopeless in any fight with other Archangels or the gods, as they are specialized in more of a support role.
Description: Faceless like the Prince they serve, the Argent Emissary is formed primarily of quicksilver. Typically, they wear an understated but highly tasteful black-and-white ensemble, but when summoned to command in combat, they are typically seen wearing foreign armor and bearing some signifier of high military rank.

Name: Kah'korro
Affiliation: Qwitzikottle
Class: Archangel
Traits:
 + many as one; rather than a singular 'individual' archangel, Kah'korro is a hiveminded 'set' of 100 identical- slightly weaker Archangels that act in perfect coordination
 + Innate weapons master; Kah'korro innately uses all weapons at a significant degree of mastery
 - Single minded; Kah'korro may be many beings- but his overall attention is limited to 'one' subject at once, leaving him vulnerable to being distracted and forgetting what he is supposed to be doing
Description: 100 identical faceless pitch-black Insectoid-humanoids wearing painted masks that seem to shift when unobserved, from their backs grow two pairs of wings, each wing is covered in thousands of eyes rather than feathers, beware his horrific gaze!

Name:Central Garden
Neighbors: Farmaland, Polis, Pastures, Trunthia Multa, Trunthia Mazia, Old World, Murica, Carociber, Rivers, Endless Blue, (Singing Flesh)
Traits:
 + Lush: the ground is fertile and plenty of plants and critters live in the area
+ Up drafts: Upward winds exist all through the region (although sometimes other winds overpower it) allowing unpowered glide to reach higher altitudes and make flight easier for larger creatures
 - Hard to navigate, although well connected (Hopefully), the region is difficult to reach from any other region, The large number of small islands and the sometimes strong and chaotic winds and narrow passages makes flying through the region difficult to the uninitiated
Description: A large and in areas dense cloud of islands ranging in size from between a few meters to a few kilometers although the largest part of mass is of islands in the few hundreds meters size, with plants growing all across them, with an ecosystem of small to medium animals capable of flight and glide between the islands, with a few being completely bound to some of the larger islands

Name:Central Roots
Neighbors: None yet
Region: Central Garden
Traits:
 + Noticeable from afar
 - Small
Description: What looks like the root system of an enormous tree which broke apart the island on which it was placed and now wrapped around it fragments

Name: Tumbourland
[Resonant] [Magic-granting] [03]
Neighbors:
Region: Central Garden
Traits:
 + Resonant: The various tumourous provinces resonate with each other through magical music. Any being gorges themselves on pusfruit equivalent to a third of their bodymass within a few hours gains a benign tumour somewhere in their body, becoming a resonator (Excessive consumption of pusfruit is discouraged). Resonators instinctively and precisely know the direction and distance of every resonant province, though with no identification of which resonant province is which. Potentially this makes for almost trivial navigation in combination with the sky axises. In addition, resonators may sacrifice stored bodily calories or calorie equivalents to the Tumbourland, allowing them to propel themselves towards a resonant province of their choice. Toggleable free smart pathfinding is available. With no pathfinding, the resonator simply moves in a straight line to the target resonant province. With pathfinding on, the resonator is propelled along the predicted fastest path to the target resonant province, veering around obstacles and calculating in the effects of various speed-altering features such as the Polis Trade-Winds. Greater calorie consumption allows for greater speeds and phasing through obstacles and restraints. With clever switching between target resonant provinces, this allows for resonators to employ crude and limited multidirectional flight for combat or other purposes. It possible to starve yourself to death by poor management of resonant calorie sacrifice, making becoming a Resonator an easy method to lose those pounds. With the instantaneous sacrifice of roughly sufficient calories to cause a province-wide famine, it is possible to teleport all the way from one region to completely another region's resonant province. Shorter teleports are less calorie-intensive. The benign tumour is the link and familiar allowing for the sacrifice of calories to the Tumbourland for magic, and if it is somehow removed the being ceases to be a resonator.

 + Telepathy: Resonator contractors of the Tumbourland may sacrifice caloric energy (or the equivalent) to sense any other resonators within their vicinity. The more caloric energy expended the larger the radius they can sense. This is relatively cheap in terms of energy expended. Resonators may then initiate two-way telepathic contact with any resonators they can currently sense at no additional cost. Alternatively, the resonators may expend caloric energy to communicate telepathically, both sending and receiving, with any being they have communicated telepathically with before, making use of the remnant connections of such exchanges. This is more expensive the farther away the target is, but cheaper than sensing for resonators, and extremely expensive if the target is in another plane, by for example having died. A reckless telepath attempting to contact a deceased travelling friend without confirming their living status and sending more than a telepathic sentence or two may accidentally starve themselves to death quite easily. There is no consequences of overuse of resonant telepathy beyond the caloric costs involved.

 - Enchanting: Beings that enter the hypnotically beautiful Tumbourland are supernaturally reluctant to ever leave it again. Even if they do manage to leave it through force of will or being physically compelled to do so by outside forces (like a distant callback crew with ropes), they will often dream of it and frequently find themselves feeling homesick for the land of Tumbourland.

Description: A grove of meaty trees bearing pus-filled fruit amidst their hair-filled branches, roots filled with teeth digging deep into the fleshy mat of skin and gristle making up the forest floor. A tantalizing haze of perfume fills the air, coming from ear-flowers and trunks filled with malformed mouths. Everything is swaying slightly to a barely audible melody, so beautiful and entrancing that you could just sit there and watch and listen for hours on end. There are plenty of edible fruits, leaves and roots within the Tumbourland and plenty of animal life. Many of the plants are however carnivorous and care should be taken when travelling this province.

Name: Farmaland
Neighbors: Polis, Central Garden, Endless Blue, Wizny, Yamayunqa, Carociber, (Singing Flesh)
Traits:
 + Fertile Soil suitable for harvesting
 + Large range of habitats
 - Low natural metal deposits
Description:Farmaland is a mostly continuous nimbus cloud that resembles a giant mountain of cotton. Near the bottom is set for warm tropical regions while the temperature decreases as you increase in altitude up to the polar regions at the top. The cloud-soil is fluffy and easy to mange with almost any tool, growing plants exceptionally well compared to regions created by less farm-obsessed Gods. Natural rivers run downhill from the polar region to the tropics, where they fall off the edge rather than pooling up. 

Antfarma: Ants are industries creatures that, despite being lower organisms, are still capable of legitimate agriculture. In this temperate region of Farmaland, giant ants roam amongst the various trees creating tall spires where they grow fungus. Said size is directly allowed by the soil being able to support large populations, and removing them from Farmaland would no doubt require a large amount of food upkeep. Other native wildlife includes generic forest-life, large beetles, giant bees, and a variety of edible berries and tubers that could potentially be harvested (or used as fungus food by the ants).

Grain Plains: As one would expect, these are plains filled with various particles of amber grain. Or other colors of grain. Someone unfamiliar with the location would simply assume they had discovered an ocean of said grain. Nibbling on said grain is a variety of pack animals big and small, large fluffy hoofed creatures covered in wool, small feathered egg-laying creatures pecking at the ground, giant four-horned creatures that produce milk, and other such friendly beasts. Nibbling on said friendly beasts is a variety of clawed dog, large two-legged bird like creatures with sharp teeth, and moderately sized hawks.

Hidden Valley: In the tropical region lives a tropical forest between two mountains known mostly for its spices. Peppers, cocoa, tasty seeds, mushrooms, cinnamon, flavorful fruit, and much more grow in abundance in this region. Even the rivers that flow through here have a strong flavor that can be used as a spice. Prominent local wildlife is miniature hogs who's snout can sniff out spices (and who taste delicious due to their high-spice diet), birds with bright colors who spread seeds around by eating fruit, and miniature tigers who mostly prey on the hogs. They are generally considered more adorable than threatening but may prove dangerous to smaller and weaker races.

Placed in a temperate region of Farmaland, the Little Rock Candy Hills are a wonderful land where there are lakes of soup and wine. The plants are all made of various candy substances, such as maple-candy trees, caramel bushes, doughnut dandelions, and sweet grass. The animals are just normal animals, but they're typically fat and often drunk from subsisting mainly on sugary food and drinking nothing but soup or alcohol. This includes fast hopping creatures with delicious legs, swift flying creatures that lay large tasty eggs, large furry creature that hibernate in the hills, and oinky pink creatures that are the fattest of them all.

The wine and soup is actually produced by bacteria, making them part of the ecosystem. Planting this bacteria in a source of water will soon turn it into wine or soup so long as the bacteria has sufficient light.

Name: Trunthia multa
Neighbors: Trunthia Mazia, Central Garden, Yamayunqa, Polis, Pastures, Rivers, Carociber, Endless Blue, (Singing Flesh)
Traits:
 + Mineralogically blessed: This region contains significantly above average amounts of a variety of minerals
 + Volcanically active; This region contains significant volcanic activity, resulting in better growth of plant life through volcanic ash, minerals not commonly found on the surface being found significantly more shallowly, and hot springs being found in many parts of the region.
 - Volcanically active; This region contains significant volcanic activity, resulting in fairly regular volcanic eruptions devastating the surface and choking the skies with ash
Description: a mostly solid floating island of significant size, its "edge' is made of thin "root like" bridges of twisting stone, while its center is dominated by a mountainous volcano which takes up a province alone, interspersed between these two overarching areas is a mixed area of plains and hills.

Name: The black marsh
Neighbors: n/a
Region: Trunthia Multa
Traits:
 ++ Plant Growth
 - unstable foundation; as a Marshland in a vulcanic region, to say that the ground isn't 'stable' is really an understatement
Description: A black marshland home to generic fish, insects, and mammals, (though not birds, because the sky is choked with volcanic ash) the most 'common' plant in this area is an edible vaguely bamboo like plant that grows straight up at an alarming pace, though it would likely not grow half as well in another province, let along another region.

Name: Barrancancer
Neighbors: Black Swamp
Region: Trunthia Multa
Traits:
 + Resonant: The various tumourous provinces resonate with each other through magical music. Any being dips a part of their body in one of the highly carcinogenic geysers, predictably enough, gains a benign tumour, making them a resonator. Resonators instinctively and precisely know the direction and distance of every resonant province, though with no identification of which resonant province is which. Potentially this makes for almost trivial navigation in combination with the sky axises. In addition, resonators may sacrifice stored bodily calories or calorie equivalents to the Barrancancer, allowing them to propel themselves towards a resonant province of their choice. Toggleable free smart pathfinding is available. With no pathfinding, the resonator simply moves in a straight line to the target resonant province. With pathfinding on, the resonator is propelled along the predicted fastest path to the target resonant province, veering around obstacles and calculating in the effects of various speed-altering features such as the Polis Trade-Winds. Greater calorie consumption allows for greater speeds and phasing through obstacles and restraints. With clever switching between target resonant provinces, this allows for resonators to employ crude and limited multidirectional flight for combat or other purposes. It possible to starve yourself to death by poor management of resonant calorie sacrifice, making becoming a Resonator an easy method to lose those pounds. With the instantaneous sacrifice of roughly sufficient calories to cause a province-wide famine, it is possible to teleport all the way from one region to completely another region's resonant province. Shorter teleports are less calorie-intensive. The benign tumour is the link and familiar allowing for the sacrifice of calories to the Barrancancer for magic, and if it is somehow removed the being ceases to be a resonator.

 + Cancerous: As a contractor of Barrancancer, the resonator may cause spontaneous cancer growth in any desired location of the body of any being they can see, potentially killing or disabling them. This causes the resonator's tumour familiar to grow and spread as much as they made the target's cancer grow. This does not cost any caloric energy. A very useful magic for those who possess a decent knowledge of anatomy. Useless for resonators who are unable to see, whether due to bodily limitations or environmental conditions.

 - Carcinogenic: The Barrancancer spews out clouds of cancer-causing spores from various geysers all throughout the cleft about once per year, which spread and drift over the entire region of Trunthia Multa.

Description: The impact of a god-tumour in the mountainous side of the Trunthia Multa carved out a large cleft or barranca which the cancer spread along and grew over before becoming mostly quiescent. Now the Barracancer is an ominous gully with ground and floors of gently pulsating flesh filled with a thin mist from effluviant geysers. It pulsates hungrily for sustenance from resonator contractors, and a comforting drumming vibrates from somewhere deep below. Carnivorous mountain goats, leopards, eagles, vultures, and assorted animal life make their home here.

Name: Trunthia Mazia
Neighbors: Trunthia Multa (direct vertical [below] adjacency), Central Garden, Carociber, Endless Blue
Traits:
 + Stable Environment; no matter what time of year, day or night, so on- there is very limited change in temperature, humidity, so on at a local level, this largely prevents unexpected droughts or floods, sudden heatwaves or cold snaps, and other such sudden and unpredictable natural disasters caused by weather from happening.
 + Mineralogically blessed; This region contains significantly above average amounts of a variety of minerals
 - mostly Subterranean; as implausible as it sounds given that the world is made of floating islands- most of this Region is literally underground, rendering most plants and creatures native to its environs unable to survive in other regions, in addition this state of affairs heavily limits how much- if any- daylight actually reaches the livable area.
Description: A Region below a region- Trunthia Mazia extends below Trunthia Multa both literally- as it is a second region's worth of rock attached below- and figuratively- as it is made up of vast caverns and interconnected cave systems, some few of which extend to connect one region to the other.
Trunthia Multa is an... exceptionally 'vertical' region in addition to being an exceptionally solid region, it can be divided into 4 'layers', each of which is large enough for a certain number of 'provinces' and each of which is literally lower than the 'layers' preceding it.

  Firstly there is the 'fungal jungle'- which contains an area large enough for '4' provinces
  Secondly there is the 'crystalline forest'- which contains an area large enough for '3' provinces
  Thirdly there is the 'Steaming chambers'- which contains an area large enough for '2' provinces
  Finally there is the 'hollow' a singular massive cavern at the 'bottom' of the island that is the size of a singular province

The 'Fungal jungle' is comprised of sporadic caverns connected through a multitude of narrow branching caves- some of which function as rivers as well. the caverns of this layer are filled with dense fungal life growing on the walls, the floor, the ceiling, the fungi, even the fauna, not even the connecting caves of this layer are entirely safe from the encroaching growth. Notably, most- though not all species of fungi found on this level are poisonous. there only two "animals" found purely in this area- Rockstalkers and Wumuns.

  Rockstalkers are a species of omnivorous snail with a rough stony shell, they grow to between 3-4 feet in size. they have a semi-symbiotic relationship with several species of fungi- they provide nutrition and a method of spreading to the fungi, and in turn the fungi provide them with a layer of camouflage. They have a venom that possesses both anesthetic and paralytic properties. They are an ambush predator, waiting for prey to literally stand upon them before injecting their venom and slowly eating it while it still lives.
  Wumuns are a species of blind deaf and hairless rodents of 2-3 feet in length. possessing exceptionally limited intelligence- they make up for it with a resistance to most toxins found in the "flora" of their home layer- and what would be an excessive reproductive rate in any creature more suited to its environment. Wumuns are technically scavengers- eating anything that doesn't eat them, including fungi, rotting carcasses, dying animals, and other Wumuns.

The 'Crystalline forest' is comprised of many large caverns that are divided by clear or semi-clear crystalline columns and meandering caves that typically only connect a single cavern to another. there are one notable species of "flora", Glowshrooms- as well as a number of generic species. there is only one notable species of fauna- Glitterflies.

  Glowshrooms are a species of lightly glowing mushroom that only grow a foot tall at most. glowshrooms aren't toxic in the "traditional" methods- rather they have highly alkaline juices, which in turn produces horrible chemical burns on the flesh of most creatures- and indirectly forms another more directly toxic chemical when mixed into acid.
  Glitterflies are a species of transparent bee or wasp like insect that dig out nests or hives in the crystalline columns found throughout the layer. Glitterflies name comes from the glowing "honey" they produce out of Glowshrooms, and in turn store in their transparent hives. Glitterflies are "social insects" but do not have a singular "Queen", rather having several reproductive females at any given time. Glitterflies possess a stinger, but don't produce their own venom, rather they reuse the juices of the Glowshroom to horrific effect.

The 'Steaming chambers' are an area with significantly greater amounts of water than higher levels, as well as significant lava flows- in turn producing the "weather cycle" of the entire region within a region through vast amounts of water boiling off, steam rising to the higher levels, and in turn returning to here through the various "rivers" and "streams" that flow down. there are no notable flora native to this level. there are no notable fauna native to this level, but there is a correspondingly greater number of generic fish and amphibians native to this area as there is more water than higher levels.

The 'hollow' is the lowest section, as implied by its name, it is a singular mostly empty area the size of a province. rather than tunnels- it has a multitude of stone "bridges" spiraling from its lowest point to connect with the layers above, it possesses the largest gaps to the outer area providing plenty of light relative to other levels, even with most of the light being blocked off by the rest of the island above it. there is one notable species of flora here, Starmoss. there is no notable species of fauna native to here.

  Starmoss is a slightly yellow moss adapted to take advantage of what little light there is here, as there is still significantly more light here than other layers- it does not spread far beyond the bounds of this area. Starmoss is unique in that it seemingly glows in the light, looking like seams of gold on the "bridges".

There are two notable species of Fauna that are spread across all- or a majority- of the region, Swordsmenbeetles, and Shimmerwing moths.

  Swordsmenbeetles are exceptionally large beetles that grow roughly 5-6 feet wide and roughly 250-300lb, processing a large bladed 'horn' sticking out of their heads. Swordsmenbeetles are solitary creatures. Swordsmenbeetles are omnivorous, with herbivorous tendencies (plant / fungi preference, can eat meat). Swordsmenbeetles are highly aggressive to other creatures of similar size, ramming into them to assert dominance. Swordsmenbeetles are Hermaphrodites who 'duel' to determine which one will be the female when two encounter each other.
  Shimmerwing moths are butterfly like insects roughly 1-2 feet in width. adult moths do not eat anything, but larva are omnivorous scavengers.  Shimmerwing moths lay their eggs in the 'Fungal jungle' where their larva will gorge themselves for several months before seeking out downward flowing water and produce a pupa, soon after reaching the 'Steaming chambers' they will emerge from their pupa and begin the arduous flight back to their hatching grounds in the 'fungal jungle'.
