Tales of Pangaea | ONYX

• Magni are considered the top of the New Pangaea hierarchy when it comes to power and status. Demons are below magni. Penditas are below demons.
• If a House is made up of magni then that House will rank higher than demons. There is only two known Houses that have members who are magni.
• The mutated beasts aren't really included since they aren't a part of society.
• Limbos are on the same level as Penditas, if not lower than them.

About 1,000 years after the earth experienced its sixth calamity, it has turned into a apocalyptic wasteland filled with strange mutated beasts and magical entities. Human life has decreased by 63% and those who lived try to survive in this new hell. Humans have divided into "Houses" and all have their distinctive quirks and territories. These Houses often fight for land which can lead to scuffles and even wars between them. Basically, no one really likes each other anymore unless you're in the same House as one another. Some humans however are blessed with magic from the old world. Those who have this magic are called "Magni". Some creatures have "moved in" since the sixth calamity, like demons for instance. They love to terrorize Houses since the demons are typically stronger than humans. This created a power imbalance in New Pangaea. [THE REGIONS ARE MOSTLY ISOLATED FROM EACH OTHER WHILE THE DUNES CONNECTS WITH ALL OF THEM.] [Heaven's Scalp is located on a large island miles away from New Pangaea. House Velpus however has settlements in the mountains and even The Dunes.]

This zone is the most barren of the locations and possibly the biggest made up of steep hills and mesmerizing curves. Miles and miles of sand and rock is a hassle to traverse without a vehicle or steed. Penditas usually reside here as well as hideous mutated creatures. Loot can be find in caverns hidden deep under the metallic sands. Small moving settlements are scattered around the dunes. Make sure to watch out for the sandstorms, packs of beasts, bandits and most of all...giant sand worms. The dunes randomly experiences dangerous sand storms. It is suggested to find shelter or else you will either go blind if you don't have proper eye protection or get lost and get eaten. Some beasts aren’t effected by this so you are VERY vulnerable.

A large forest full of craters scattered around. No one knows exactly where the craters came from. Some say it was from a great battle. Treetop villages of Penditas are common here.

One of the most elusive part of New Pangaea. Most who go there don't come back...but the loot there is might be worth it. Smogland is a swampy terrain covered by a thick fog. Dangerous mutated beasts roam here. It is important to not inhale the fog which can contain lethal gas.

There is tall grass, strange twisting trees and many steep hills. If you submerge yourself too deep in the muck or water, aquatic monsters will catch your sent. Avoid the tall grass. Horrific abominations hide in there. You'll have to stay vigilant.

Squads of bandits on stilts walk through muck scavenging for relics. If they spot you, they will use their mounted turrets to shoot you. They are fairly easy to deal with if you aim for the stilts or have a ranged weapon.

The only remaining militia and government on New Pangea. No one knows its origins except for the people who are apart of it. They claim that order must be brought back to New Pangea and they intend to bring it...which involves converting Houses and others into their new government. They call themselves "Mighty Raven" but everyone else doesn't respect them.

Now considered the strongest House after the fall of House Marmalade. They worship the light which the simply call God which means christianity somewhat survived but has been morphed. The high council and their disciples are magni who can tap into the power of the sun by being marked.

House Morin is known for their mastery of the shadows, swordsmanship and their strict traditions. They wear a fusion of cowboy and samurai attire with a post apocalyptic flavor to it. The leading family is Father Morin and his five sons. Only men are expected to be a magni and inherit shadow magic.

House Ford is known for their intelligence and their cooperation with Mighty Raven. If you want guns are machines of war, you go to them. They are posted at what was once New York City. They now mine the ruined city for resources. House Ford doesn't just make weapons. They are making a variety of new tech. They aren't as high ranking as House Velpus but they have potential.

House Marmalade was once the wealthiest house in New Pangaea. How they got to the top is a mystery to even the family themselves. They don’t care however and consider themselves superior to others. They were one of the only Houses to have citizens. However, a revolution with the House caused House Marmalade to fall.

GENRE: Action, Drama, Post apocalyptic

One of the smaller and more mysterious houses. It is made up of malicious jesters. The majority of the members are half demon.

This is where DEMONS made a home for themselves. Flatlands where the sands are red and the clouds are charred. There are silver buildings and structures resembling gothic architecture.

Hundreds of acres full of white wheat and is believed to be some sort of promised land. House Velpus has claimed the land as their own but there are no settlements. Only large and tall watch towers made of gold and marble. Magni from House Velpus are posted at these watch towers called "God's Barbers". They use sun rune magic to eviscerate any scum that steps foot on Heaven's Scalp.

For the past few decades, many greed demons have killed each other off in order to take land for themselves. Now there is only one of them. Mammon II. As the name implies, she is the descendant or reincarnation of the original Mammon. However, she has a different style. She's not just tempting but DOING. A "business" woman if you will. She commits acts of exploitation, laundering, and borderline theft. Despite being the only greed demon, she has become a legend to penditas and even to some low class Houses. The greediest part of it all, is that she has the ability to turn anything into gold AND the ability to multiply any item.

"Long Ear" is said to be a spirit who fell from the sky in a comet, granting penditas a home called Volkov; a large village protected by a metal dome. The spirit is described to be completely pale with long ears and red eyes.

There are rumors of a fallen angel in New Pangaea. No one knows about it except House Velpus and some bounty hunters. However, House Velpus have dedicated their lives to protecting it. They call it "The Idol". It is said to have blue skin and white hair, with gleaming gold armor around it's muscular frame. Apparently it is a very sorrowful being and doesn't care much for human life or New Pangaea. Perhaps it has no where else to go.
