OC: World of Wil'ca

[grimpeddler]

« Wil'ca a rough, wild terrain that's filled with a large collection of selfish people who will do anything to get the things they want. One tribe who is kind and somewhat helpful to each other and others but won't really go too far out of their way for outsiders. There is an object in the world that most say is capable of granting the user anything they desire, even take them to other world. No tech but the stuff the Skylar brought, rarely uses it but everyone finds it amazing when they do. Tere - Type of bug that buries under skin to lay eggs and hatch hundreds more like it. Tend to swarm when agitated or during mating season. Ley'ni: Nothing but thick forests, plenty of wildlife for hunting, home to the Ley'ni tribe. Ley'ni tribe is largest & most united in Wil'ca, good with stealth/hiding/tracking. Heightened senses (hearing/sight/smell/taste/touch) and longevity - can live hundreds of years unless killed. Live in houses built in the trees. Ley'cia: Small island off of Ley'ni, home to those of the Ley'ni and An'cia tribes. Primarily fishing. Recently attacked by the Frith'le where the entire tribe was wiped out except for one survivor. Frith'le: Mountain rages, forest, arctic, plenty of wildlife for hunting, home to the Tere insects. Home to the Frith'le tribe, elemental magic-users. Tend to live in houses on the ground. Frith'ba: Middle-sized island, home to Frith'le and Via'ba tribes, fishermen. Frith'ke: Small island, home to Frith'le and Thas'ke tribes. Harbor/commerce/trading. Frith'ni: Large island, home to Frith'lee and Ley'ni tribes. Primarily herbalists - medicine/poison. Thas'ke: Flatlands/plateaus, moderate wildlife (largest wildlife), home to Thas'ke tribe. Thas'ke tribe lives in caves, enhanced physical attributes (speed, reflexes, strength), trade/commerce. Thas'le: Mysterious island the Thas'ke dare not to tread, belongs to the Frith'le. SPECIFICS UNKNOWN Thas'le is where some of the Frith'le gather and search for the object to take them to Sen'ria first so that they can claim it for their own. An'cia: Desert, single oasis, sand dunes, sparse wildlife, home to the An'cia tribe. Smallest tribe who dwell underground in an elaborate tunnel system during the hottest part of the day. Physical durability (temperature, injuries) and builders (smart, strategists). Via'ba: Mountains/volcanoes, sparse flora & fauna, rich in gems. Home to Via'ba tribe, suffered but survived many eruptions, believe in volcano gods, regeneration ability and "premonitions". Trade in precious metals/gems/stones. Live on houses built on tall rocks. Via'ke: Volcano-less, harbor/trade/commerce. Home to the Via'ba and Thas'ke tribes.

« Sen'ria a second world that's only talked about among the people of Wil'ca. Stories say that it's rumored to be a utopia - no fighting, no evil, no wars or struggle. People have passed this story down and some even say that they've caught glimpses of this world when near-death. There are strong structures already provided and plenty of wildlife. Nearly everyone speaks of the Mother Tree - a massive tree that stands in the center of the land that protects everything and ensures there's peace. The people of Wil'ca have named this new world Sen'ria but those who live here call it Elilycia. There are no people living on this world due to Mother Tree. Hundreds of years ago it released a toxin that calmed the people so much that they just laid down and died. It's dormant now but it could spread at any time. Other than hunting for food, there is nothing to do on Sen'ria which makes this world fairly boring.

« Tinevell the third known world. Skylar's homeworld. Not much is known about it by the natives of Wil'ca except by those who know Skylar. It's technologically advanced in every way, the natives even created a device that allowed them to travel to other worlds but that piece of technology doesn't appear to be with Skylar. Some say that the item Skylar seeks came from this world and was lost along the trip, bits of it scattered across Wil'ca. What Skylar doesn't say (doesn't remember) is that the land masses of his world crumbled and there's nothing to return to - there's also no information on what happened to the others who lived on Tinevell.
