Q & A Time!

World Setting

Lonila: A Dark Fantasy World where Magic, Technology, and different Races exist. The geography is a loose reflection of Earth on one supercontinent named Shénlongtudi, otherwise known as the Divine Land of Dragons.

Key Information:

• Shénlongtudi: A supercontinent loosely disconnected from the rest of the world by the oceans as it is often called "The Hidden Continent". They believe only in the Celestial Dragon as they do not know any other gods.

Important Power System of Shénlongtudi (aside from Chi)

• Dragon Resonance: Otherwise known as the Lóngyín, Dragon Resonance is an ancient vocal power originating from Scalefolk due to their divine progenitor, the Celestial Dragon. Through their voice, practitioners produce supernatural resonances capable of influencing the physical world by speaking towards the Nébiel itself to make it obey. These utterances may manifest as tremendous force, elemental phenomena, or stranger effects depending upon the words spoken and the strength of the user. Foreigners to Shénlongtudi call it the "Wyrmsong".
• • Practitioners: The Practitioners of Dragon Resonance are known as a "Resonator". Resonators are common in Scalefolk, but not in others. Foreigners call them "Wyrmsingers".

Hidden Knowledge: The information below is known only to a rare few within Shénlongtudi. To most of its inhabitants, these concepts and places are entirely unknown.

• The Valley in Between: There is another supercontinent known as The Valley in Between composed of several regions (Elaria, Asteldiom, Rondiand, Darim, Cariam, Helmire, and Tashimura) and several nations (Theocracy of Astel, Tsardom of Redranova, Three Kingdoms of Zhǎng, Bakufu of Seisha, Demon Empire of Xilvath, The Sacred Realm of Morzhananda, and Arcane Dominion of Lirael).
• Magic: Magic is virtually unknown in Shénlongtudi. The continent developed around Chi and Dragon Resonance, and no native magical tradition ever took root. Magic itself functions normally within Shénlongtudi; its absence is cultural rather than supernatural. Consequently, most inhabitants would regard genuine magic as something completely alien, with few even possessing a word for it.

Regions of Shénlongtudi

• Longyuan: Northwest.
• Yùnhé: Central and South.
• Chìyán: West.
• Tiānlóng: East and Northeast.

Nations

Wànlóng (The Myriad Clans of Wànlóng): The ruling faction of Shénlongtudi. A sprawling clan-state composed of countless families competing for influence. Does not function like conventional feudal nations and possess no centralized nobility. The Clan itself is the fundamental political unit. Every recognized clan govern its own holdings, maintains its own warriors, negotiates alliances, and competes for standing among it's rivals.

• Standing: A Clan's standing is determined by its population, territory, wealth, achievements, warriors, Resonators, and accumulated honor. There are no permanent Great Houses—a minor Clan can rise to dominate an era, while an ancient Clan can be reduced to obscurity within generations.
• Current Great Houses of the Era: Zhènhǔ, Jīnlín, and Tiānyīn.

Scalefolk: Consists of dragonkind. The main people of Shénlongtudi.
