Climate and Geology:[]

The enormous size of Idario and the remoteness of many areas from the sea result in the dominance of the humid continental climate, which is prevalent in all parts of the country except for the northern coast and the south near the Verluxian border. This causes often hot and humid summers, and brutally cold winters. The capital is located on the northern coast, and as such is often much colder than the majority of the country.

Idario is largely forest and countryside, with the only real maintained roads running between the larger cities. The main roads were created and now maintained by Geomancers, forming them from solid stone and carving tunnels and building high roads and bridges through valleys.

There are several large mountains and mountain ranges, largely towards the borders of the continent. The largest mountain is home to a large mining colony, producing almost all the metal in Idario.

Life in Idario:[]

Idario is largely utilitarian country, even Nobles and powerful magic wielders wealth is kept heavily in check by the ruling Emperor. The large majority of the population are farmers, tradesman, and craftsman. Public happiness is often very heavily affected by the policies of the current ruler, which changes frequently as Idario is prone to revolution and civil war.

The military is largely made up of many small teams of Wayfinders, specifically trained to combat enemies in the thick forests, often accompanied by a single Geomancer, wielders of earth magic trained in combat as well as creation. In addition to Wayfinders and Geomancers, there is also a standing army of mostly human soldiers. While there are many drafted into the Military, only about 10% stay beyond the first 2 years after training. This results in a small active military but a large reserve ready to be called upon.

Heavily reliant on Magic in place of technology, those with innate magical talent are gathered at a young age to be taught at Adamant Academy in Freland. Those who complete their training are often recruited into the military for several years, serving as Geomancers. Those who do not show an innate proficiency with magic are largely taught a trade from a family member or an individual master, those who do not learn a trade are usually drafted as Wayfinders.

The primary race in Idario are Deer and Bear Zyrx, creating a duality of natural elegance and strength. There are also many Elves and Humans, who find a relatively low class gap due to the utilitarian nature of the society.

Travelers through Idario rarely stray from the largest roads, as the hundreds of miles of dense forest are impenetrable to those not trained to navigate them.

Melefous royous Bleeding Crown Like with royalty, the bleeding crown can be helpful or it can be harmful. The actual flower (roughly the size of an adult hand) can be crushed and made into a numbing salve. This makes it very useful for many medical practices. The spur, however, produces a toxin which will cause paralysis and even death in high dosages. The bleeding crown is native to Idario, and is only found in forest clearings. Several of these clearings have been mapped, but there are likely many more which have not been discovered yet due to the dense growth pattern of trees in the area.
