The Azerlisia Mountain Range & the Dwarven Nation

• The Azerlisia Mountain Range lies in the far north of the continent, acting as a natural barrier between human lands and the Beastman (Quagoa) territories.
• Rugged, icy peaks dominate the landscape, with sheer cliffs, deep tunnels, and underground caverns forming the dwarves’ home.

• Quagoa: Mole-like demi-humans who constantly raid dwarven lands. Their hides become as strong as the ore they eat.
• Frost Dragons: The mountain range houses Frost Dragons that demand tribute from the Quagoa through tyranny. Frost Dragon are the weakest of dragons.

Katze Plains:

The Katze Plains is an empty, large plains between Re-Estize Kingdom and Baharuth Empire. Perpetually covered in a thick mist and ever crawling with undead. Undead always spawned in the mist and the deeper in you go, the stronger they get. The Kingdom, Empire and Adventurer's guild often send expeditions to cull the undead, making it a steady flow of income for low to medium ranked adventurers as long as they do not venture in deep enough. However, oddly enough, when war breaks out between the Kindom and Empire, the mist suddenly fades away along with its undead. As if welcoming the death that war brings.

Adventurers:

The adventurers guild in the New World is a global organization that each nation works with. Guilds assign difficulty ratings to monsters and makes quests for Adventurers with adequate ranks. Rank is shown by small metal plates that correspond with one's rank. Ranks as follows (Lowest to highest):

Copper: The starting rank for newly registered adventurers.

Iron: A step up from Copper, with slightly better opportunities.

Silver: A rank where adventurers start to see a decent income and can afford some basic equipment and potions.

Gold: The peak of what ordinary humans can achieve, with good pay and access to better gear.

Platinum: Those that have talent to push past what ordinary training can achieve. Adventurers at this rank earn a substantial income and are likely to have enchanted items. A 3rd tier magic caster would at least be this rank

Mithril: An elite rank where adventurers can afford a luxurious lifestyle and potentially have Mithril equipment.

Orichalcum: A very rare and powerful rank, with adventurers possessing exceptional skills and gear. Only a handful of Orichalcum parties exist in each nation.

Adamantite: The highest rank of adventurer, commanding respect across the continent. Only a few Adamantine parties exist, usually 1 or 2 per nation, so it is very rare to run into them casually and often draw eyes. Since there is no rank after Adamantite the power of individuals in this rank can vary greatly. Some may be barely stronger than Orichalcum, while others have set a foot in the realm of Heroes or beyond.

Other, non-official, Power ranks:

Set a foot in the Realm of Heroes (DR ~100): Beyond Adamantite, but not quite heroic (Gazef Stronoff DR 95, Remedios Custodio DR 100)

Realm of Heroes (Heroic. DR ~101-120: ): Those that have reached the pinnacle of their race. (Black Scripture Members.)

Outlier (DR ~121 and above): Broken past their limits, Achieved what was questioned to be possible (Captain of Black Scripture DR ~180, Fluder Paradyne DR 121, Antilene Heran Fouche DR ~250). Due having no higher rank, power in this rank can vary greatly.

Difficulty ranks (DR):

F Class: 1~10 - People who are skillful at handling weapons can fight against monsters with this difficulty (ex: Normal goblins, wolfs, basic skeletons).

E Class: 11~20 - Monsters that can't be beaten by a normal person, only by a trained person. (ex: Ogres, Zombies, hellhounds)

D Class: 21~30 - Needs veteran soldiers or Silver adventurers to deal with. (Armored skeletons, inferior demons, Imps)

C Class: 31~40 - Gold rank adventurers or elite troops. (ex: Beastman, Barghest, gazer demon)

B Class: 41~50 - Platinum rank adventurers and above can deal with them. (ex: Normal Liches. Old Guard skeletons)

A Class: 51~60 - A rank that an ultra-elite warrior or Mithril rank adventurers can manage. Monsters at this level can destroy large villages and towns. (ex: Vampires, Succubus, Elder Guard Skeletons, Wyverns)

A+ Class: 61~70 - Orichalcum Adventurers that use 4th tier spells are here. A monster at this level can destroy a large town and obliterate a small army. (ex: Giant Basilisk, Skeletal dragons. Master Guard Skeletons, Hell Scythes)

S Class: 71 - 99 - A rumored difficulty level that is suitable for an entire Adamantite party. (ex: Frost/lesser dragons, Scale demon, Shadow demon). While Adamantie adventurers fall in this class, a normal Adamantite is usually around DR 75-80. A full Adamantite party would be ~DR 90-95 depending on which party.

Everything that is difficulty 100 and above is considered to be above humanly possible. Monsters categorized at this level are considered a national emergency for a country. Requiring Heroic (or beyond) intervention. Beyond this level it becomes difficult to rate due to extreme power differences, leading to inaccurate rating. Extremely rare and often not even known to exist. Mentioning them will just elicit a confused/unaware response from most people.

Notable Monster info:

Liches: DR 41~50. Capable of third tier magic. By most people believed to be the most superior undead.

Guard skeletons: Skeletons that wear enchanted armor/weapons. Old Guards (DR 45) wear basic enchanted gear. Elder Guards (DR 55) wear Silver enchanted gear and Master guarders (DR 65) wear gold enchanted gear. These are rare undead that usually show up in small numbers.

Skeletal dragon: DR 65. Dragons made of bones, immune to magic up to the 6th tier. This caused people to misinterpret that they are immune to magic due to most people being unaware there are higher tiers of magic.

Scale Demon: DR 80. Large Demons with goat skull heads and scaly wings. Have a scaled tail and wield large mauls. Believed to be among the most powerful demons (which is not true).

Shadow Demon: DR 90. Shadowy demons that excel in stealth/assassination. Few people know they exist.

Death Knight: DR 100. Large Undead with flamberge sword and tower shield. Legendary undead that show up extremely rarely. Any human killed by one turns unto a zombie. Gazef Stronoff would struggle to kill one. Shows up maybe once every few decades.

Frost Dragons: Frost Dragons usually are around ~125 DR with the Frost Dragon Lord being DR 150.

Night Lich: DR 150. Liches capable of casting 8th tier magic and rule over basic liches. Legendary undead that few people even know exist.

Doom Lord: DR would be measured at 180, in reality 210. Undead that has a rusted crown and a blood-stained cape. Full plate armor, wielding a war-scythe. Buffs other Undead near it. Completely unknown monster, no confirmed sightings to this day.

Other monsters than the examples exist within each rating.

Magic:

Magic in the New World is divided in a tier based system. While some Warriors/knights may be capable of magic as well, they would not be specialized in it. Only dedicated magic casters can reach higher tiers.

1st Tier: The most common level of magic. Many practical magic are included in this tier. Anyone can use 1st-tier magic by training, though it takes too much time and effort for those without talent. Those capable of performing this tier can earn proper pay as a kind of special worker. (Light healing, Magic arrow)

2nd Tier: These are spells for those who have talent, numbering 1 in 5,000 to 1 in 10,000. It is the common goal of normal magic casters. Those who achieve this tier can earn a good income and reputation. (Shockwave, summon 2nd tier summons)

3rd Tier: Only the brightest achieve this tier. 3rd tier magic casters are quite rare and they were considered to be most likely a platinum-rank Adventurer at the very least. In this tier, you will be able to face monsters that threaten entire villages or small towns. (Fireball, Lightning, 3rd tier summons. Fly)

4th Tier: The highest tier that the most skilled acolytes of Fluder Paradyne have managed to reach. In this tier, magic casters are capable of easily defeating a monster that poses a threat to a town or small city; they can also take down armies. Orichalcum magic casters may be capable of this (only dedicated mage adventurers). (Crystal Lance, Grand Fireball/Lightning, Holy Ray)

5th Tier: A tier that very few have reached, among them are Heroes, who are considered the pinnacle of mankind. Those who reach this tier will become killing machines on the battlefield. Some dedicated Adamantite ranked magic casters may have reached this tier. (Dragon Lightning, Raise Dead, Teleport)

6th Tier: The highest tier magic for very few and capable inhabitants of the world that few can reach. It is said there are currently four humanoid magic casters who could cast 6th tier spells in the entire continent, including Fluder Paradyne himself. Only Outliers are capable of achieving this tier, and achieving this tier will make the world recognize you as a Grand Mage. Many believe the 6th tier is the highest tier of magic that exists, only true scholars or people with higher level power know this is false. Any tier beyond this is largely unknown. (Heal, Flamewing, Control Weather, 6th tier summons, Chain Lightning)

7th Tier: Spells that only exist in legends. Although humans are unable to use it, the Slane Theocracy's magic casters can via large-scale magic rites or ceremonies. However, these are very dangerous to perform and usually end up with disastrous consequences. It seems that a few Heroes are capable of using 7th tier spells, and a few individuals outside them are rumored to use one. Not even Fluder knows much about this tier. (Chain Dragon Lightning, Greater Teleportation, Hell Flame, Holy Smite, Napalm. Resurrection, Summon Undead Army)

8th Tier: In the New World, these spells are considered to be within the Mythical Realm. Night Liches have the capacity of learning the 8th tier. There is a way to gain access to using the 8th tier and that is by conducting a large ritual. In the center of such a ritual is a human who can use the 5th tier and could improve it. It is also necessary for a large number of those present with that person at the center of it all to use the 3rd tier. Even with this, it can only be improved up to two tiers, and it is believed that there is some form of device involved. Normally, a country like the Theocracy is needed to support this. (Death, Astral Smite, Explosion. Dimensional lock, Insanity, Negative Burst.)

9th Tier: There are no public records of this magic ever having been used, it is considered to be Mythical, even large scale rituals cannot invoke it. (Greater Thunder, God's Eye, Fissure, Grasp Hearth, Nuclear Blast, Tempest, True Death, Vermillion Nova, True Resurrection. Gravity Maelstrom)

10th Tier: The existence of 10th-Tier magic was proven by the Nameless Book of Spells and select few individuals know about it. It is consider the pinnacle of magic. (Armageddon [summons army of lesser demons], Control Amnesia, Meteor fall, Reality Slash, Summon 10th Tier, Time Stop. Gate, Black Hole)

11th Tier: It is the unofficial rank of Super-Tier Magic, otherwise known as magic of the gods. It is labeled as the highest form of magic above all other tiers that only godlike beings can use.

• Iä Shub-Niggurath: gaint instant death wind that uses corpses to summon Dark Young.
• Creation: Can change/terraform terrain
• Pandemonium or Pantheon: Summon 6 random Difficulty rating ~200 Demons or angels depending on which spell
• Fallen Down: Gigantic pillar of Blue light that incinerates all.

Other spells than the examples exist within each tier.
