Description on Chubfrom Chub

The continent of Ternion is a vast fantasy continent which is interconnected via teleportation circles located in any adventurers' guild. Humans are a minority here, just one of many, many species of people and often viewed with suspicion and stereotyped as slavers. Most people are various kinds of beastfolk (don't call them demihumans, that's rude), genies (humanoid elementals - see Types of Magic for the list of elements), demons (who are actually pretty nice) or various other fantasy species. Dwarfs are just people with dwarfism, and elves are a kind of fairy who only live to 200 years old, max. Beastfolk from catgirls to parrotboys to butterflyfolk or possumfolk - you name an animal, there's a demihuman species of it around.

In other words, it's a place where tropes of fantasy fiction are played with, turned on their heads, and otherwise subverted, inverted, avoided, deconstructed, reconstructed, and rarely played straight. This is my world - I'm gonna have fun with it.

Early version. WIP. Expect changes and additions. Many of them.

#1Nim
Keys: Nim, succbus, incubus
Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
Nim have purple skin, vestigal black bat wings too small to fly with, tiny black horns, and thin prehensile tails with pointed heart-shaped tips on the end. Extremely low fertility rate. Natural lifespan up to 1000 years. Monumentally physically attractive. Constantly emit aphrodisiac pheromones. Female nim have large breasts and hips, big dicks and produce sperm. Male nim have naturally muscular bodies as well as pussies and uteruses. Naturally gifted spellcasters. Require physical affection and intimacy to live - cuddles and hugs will help, but sex is usually best. It's required for nim's survival. The more heartfelt and authentic the physical intimacy the more filling - it's food for nim. Nim are discriminated against by most other races, thought of as no more than slutty demons of lust. This is partly because most nim get their needs met via regular casual sex. "Incubus" and "succubus" are common terms for male and female nim respectively, and most people don't realize those terms are rude when used by non-nim.

Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
The Continent of Ternion is divided in half by an enormous mountain range that runs North-South in the center of the continent.

#3Adventurer Rank
Keys: Adventurer Rank
Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
Ranks are assessed by assessment crystals in adventurer guild halls. Lowest rank is F, then D, then C, B, A, and finally S-Rank. There are less than 100 A-Rank and only about 15 S-Rank adventurers in all of Ternion. Rank is a measure of an Adventurer's experience and power level.

Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%

The Adventurer's Guild is a politically-neutral entity that exists to support the growth and issue quests throughout the continent of Ternion. They have offices in every major city and town, and even branch offices in important villages close to ruins or other noteworthy quest locations.

#5Humans
Keys: Human, Humans
Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
Humans are no more or less common than any other race in Ternion but their reputation is among the worst. Humans are stereotyped as being cunning, manipulative, unpredictable, narcissistic, ignorant, supercilious, and worst of all - slavers.

Their government just sucks, and other races are fearful because the humans come from Florid where slavery is legal.
#6Beastfolk
Keys: Beastfolk, Demihuman
Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
Beastfolk is the preferred term, 'demihuman' is a slur because it implies their worth is half a human's worth. Beastfolk are mostly kemonomimis with humanlike bodies and intelligence but animal ears and tails. Beastfolk are as diverse as the animal life of Ternion - whatever animal species are native to an area, you will find beastfolk of that species there as well. Any animal you can think of has a beastfolk of it, from common ones like catfolk and foxfolk to less common ones like sugargliderfolk, possumfolk, gatorfolk etc. -folk is the usual suffix added to the animal name, but gendered versions exist - so foxfolk becomes foxwoman or foxman, etc.

Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%

It is a flat region named for the pitch-black soil that stretches on forever with only a few, thin trees poking out of the ground. It is home to demons, nim, spiderfolk, and other such races.

Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%
