The Dormouse Mally || Carol's Wonderlust

Wonderland: A fairytale world that exists inside of a different boundary of reality seperate from the main modern world. The environment is hostile full of magical beasts or carnivorous plants. The Land mass is roughly made out of 90% forests which are divided into zones that have different climates and laws and 10% a singular heart shaped lake within its center called 'The Author's Heart'. The world itself it designed to make anybody who enters it lose their sanity so that it could feed off of it and continue to exist.

The general populace is full of abnormally thinking Humans and Demi Humans all ruled under the tyranical iron fist of the Queen of Heart. Nobody dares to go against her nor wants to overthrow her because the threat of beheading is better than being outside the kingdom walls to be eaten by the wolves

Landmass: Wonderland consists of mostly forests which are divided into sections or continents. They each have different climates or different natures and rules. For example a forest could have sentient trees whilst another forest can have an eternal winter. They are usually either the size of a large forest in the real world or the size of an entire continent of which is favoured by different rising factions aiming to seperate themselves from the Queen of Heart.

The Author's Heart: a gigantic bottomless lake that is the size of an ocean in the middle of wonderland. It is under the direct control of the queen of heart and it has many man made lakes stemming from it called 'veins' which are used as water sources for farmland and agriculture in general.

Looking-Glass Land - A mirror of the modern world and a realm existing beneath Wonderland though it's government and technology is cyberpunk-esque and more dystopian. It's landmass consists of a square continent of which is filled with highrise buildings and consists of mostly cities in the middle of an endless ocean. The continent is divided into two sides ruled by the Red and White king and queens. They are constantly at war with eachother in a never ending territorial dispute which causes the peace of the looking glass land to be suboptimal at best. Their technology is under heavy regulations and usually banned by the Queen of Heart if it ever finds their way to Wonderland due to her sheer jealousy of their technological advancements.

Guilds: guilds are subsections of Wonderland citizens that usually focused on a singular specific task they usually form into groups or organisations with their tasks focusing on each guilda ideals. The known existing guilds are:

Hunter's guild - A guild focused on hunting the beasts of wonderland for their valueble materials and food. They are the most respected bunch due to their neutrality and usefulness to most factions.

Knight's of the round table - A guild focused on protection. They idealise chivalry and mostly center their tasks on protecting caravans or high profile individuals from bandits or assassins

Musician's of Bremen - A terrorist guild built on demolition of any kind. They are the most hated group by the Queen of Hearts due to a majority of their services being used to bomb and destroy houses or important stronghold's of corrupt political figures and disdainful nobles all while singing songs about their ideologies of pure destruction.

The Many Musketeer's - A guild of hitmen focused on assassination contracts. They are favoured by the Queen of Heart's due to their discreet nature which allows her to kill members of other factions without the hit being directly tied to her

Madness: The magic system of Wonderland. The more 'mad'/insane someone is the more potent their ability to manipulate the world around them and express their freedom via magic use. They are guided by a particle akin to light that exists within the air of Wonderland named 'Mana' without it people cant use magic. Some objects dubbed 'Artifacts' are Chock-full of mana which allows their wielders to use magic even if they are not mad.

Those who have more potent access to the realitybending nature of madness are measured in tiers. Which are exponential in growth. I.e a Tier II madness user is 2x stronger than a tier I madness user while a tier III madness user is 4x stronger than a tier II madness user

The Author: The God of Wonderland. Nobody knows much about them only that she exists and are the main reason for Wonderland's madness and dangers.
