Capital city: Helion
Demonym: Myriader
Myriad is a country that is made of seven regions, each region entirely different than the last. It is the only country that has not yet been conquered by the surrounding Valorian Empire. Myriad is currently ruled by a benevolent and fair queen. The culture is very diverse, varying from region to region.  There are rivalries between the regions, but they still get along fairly well.The majority of Myriaders are polytheistic, but a monotheistic religion is starting pop up. Myriad is loaded with resources, which is how they are still able to thrive even when the Valorian Empire cut off trade with them. Technology is starting to pop up, and things like indoor plumbing and electricity are starting to become common in cities and towns. In all, Myriad is a strong country that is beginning to advance!

The Seven Regions of Myriad

Helion
Region capital: Helion
Demonym: Helionite

Helion is the largest city in Myriad, big enough to call itself it's own region, and it is also the location of the Queen's castle. The region floats in the sky, miles over the country, and people get from the ground to Helion and back via hot air balloons. Helion is the most technologically advanced city, looking almost steampunk. It's very windy there, so be sure to hold onto everything!

Ivora
Region capital: Bashpenst
Demonym: Ivoran

Ivora is made of cold tundras and snowy mountains. Summers are short and cool, winters are long and harsh. Hunting, ice fishing, and the fur trade is usually what goes on here. The capital, Bashpenst, has lots of hot springs to warm up in, fortunately.

Lisadt
Region capital: Fiori
Demonym: Lisadtan

Plains, forests, and hills are everywhere in Lisadt. It is also the only region that sees 4 distinct seasons. Fall is a popular season, and many festivals are held here during that time. Most of the country's farm products come from Lisadt.

Utaar
Region capital: Jaiun
Demonym: Utaarian

Utaar is a big desert full of sand and canyons. It's always burning hot, sandstorms are common, and rain is a blessing. Of course, there is an oasis every now and then, and most cities and towns are built around them. In fact, the capital of Jaiun is built around one of these oases.

Insund
Region capital: Insund
Demonym: Insundi

Insund is a region located miles underground. Various caves and elevators scattered around Myriad all lead to Insund. Like Helion, Insund is a large city big enough to be considered it's own region. The streets of Insund are always lit with lamps and lanterns. Even though it's always dark, the strangely beautiful stalactites and stalagmites make it worth living there for some people.

Zios
Region capital: Pasca
Demonym: Ziosan

Zios is loaded with rivers and bayous, making boats are the main means of transportation. The main industry of Zios is fishing, but the capital, Pasca, is also Myriad's entertainment capital. Many people in Zios wear decorative masquerade masks. There isn't a clear reason why, but it's thought to be just a cultural thing.

Verin
Region capital: Gasten
Demonym: Verinese

Verin is a chain of islands located off the coast of the Zios region. Verin is a popular tourist attraction with it's sandy beaches and tropical rain forests. The strangest plants and wildlife are found here. Steamships designed by Helionite engineers and inventors transport people from island to island and to the mainland and back.


:star-empty::bulletblack:The Empire of Valoria:bulletblack::star-empty:
Capital city: ???
Demonym: Valorian
Valoria is powerful empire that surrounds Myriad. It is currently ruled by a fearsome and oppressive empress. Valoria has conquered an entire continent, except for one country: Myriad, the empire's next target.
(Please note: None of your characters can be from this country! You can pick any of the seven regions above, though!)


So which region are you from? c;

Is it ok if Geo lives in Insund, but often sneaks out to the upper world? She's just the kind of girl, that wouldn't like contantly being in the dark and such
