The year is 2520. Space flight is not only a possibility, but is fairly accessible - though no one has travelled beyond the Solar System yet. Earthlings have begun to terraform their neighbouring planets, and many space cadets look off to the furthest stars in hope of one day walking on new and foreign fields.

Mars was the first planet to be terraformed, closesly followed by Venus. A catastrophic event occured on Mars, however, that left it ravaged. It was deemed a no fly zone, and since then there has been a damper on further terraforming other planets within the system.

EARTH is the hub of the modern Solar System, and a marvel of new and old. This Earth is not "our" Earth, and while its continents may be in the same shape, it possesses none of the history or people that ours does.

• ESTER takes up the landmass that we would call England.

VENUS is a magically inundated planet, with many native creatures that were previously viewed as beings of only myth. As a rule of thumb, the countries of Venus are named after goddesses.

• ISHTAR is a small country with an arid and generally harsh climate. Most people living there thrive in underground cities, or places enchanted with cooling water magic.

MARS is a post apocalyptic wasteland of a planet, which was caught up in a disastorous event that rendered the planet a no-fly zone. Occassionally, criminals from Earth and Venus are dumped here, when they're deemed impossible to rehabilitate. As a rule of thumb, the countries of Mars are named after gods.

• NIDHOGG was the main point of terraforming on Mars during the event that ruined the planet. As such, much of it is inhospitable at best, and outright malicious at worst.

THE CIRCADIAN FLEET is the largest of the United System's terraforming fleets. It is currently commencing work on Jupiter, the first of the outer planets to be terraformed, though work is slow thanks to the sheer size of the planet and the Mars incident. The crew is fairly evenly split between those who signed up because of an interest in science, and those who signed up thinking they would be able to explore the outer reaches of space.
NOTE: SSE stands for "Space

• ??? Wildcat is the flagship of the fleet.

HEAVEN & HELL are the realms where the dead wander, either saved or damned for eternity.

THERIO is the term used to refer to the people of the world, who are basically anthropomorphic animals - aka furries. Therio have humanoid bodies, with organ structures and characteristics resembling those of a human. Their patterns, colourations, and physicalities are incredibly varied, and are typically very different from the animals that we are used to.

All therio have a "species", which functionally acts more like a subspecies. As an example, Sasha's subspecies is vampire bat, while her species remains therio. Therio may have a subspecies resembling virtually any animal found on "our" Earth, as well as a number of mythological creatures, such as unicorns, cockatrice, and wolpertingers - but NOT dragons (see below).

Therio of any subspecies could potentially have children, no matter how distant the relationship between those subspecies. Typically, these children will not be a hybrid. Rather, there is a 50/50 chance of the offspring belonging to the subspecies of either parent. There are some exceptions to this rule - half-dragons, for example, as well as real world hybrids, like ligers. Children still inherit traits, such as colouration, from both parents as expected.

All therio are capable of magic, though some subspecies, such as unicorns, are more inclined towards it than others. Very few are willing and able to put in the time that serious magic study requires, and the ability to perform more than palour tricks is viewed as a testament to an individuals dedication and willpower.

ANGELS & DEMONS are beings born of the realms of heaven and hell. They come in two forms: native, meaning that they were born into their celestial bodies, and manufactured, meaning that they were born mortal and earnt the position of angel or demon through good or bad deeds that they committed.

Native angels/demons have appearances similar to those of cartoons, and are 2D beings who function under cartoon laws. Native angels possess a wide array of colours, while native demons possess a black and white monochrome, though there are rare examples of colour in the most powerful of their kind.

Manufactured angels/demons possess mortal forms which have been radically altered by celestial energies. Their appearances vary greatly, and they take on qualities of either the seven deadly sins or the seven heavenly virtues.

DRAGONS are a rare and powerful species, of which only 10 exist. The 1st, the Dragon of the Sun, created the remaining 9 dragons, who each look over the other planets of the Solar System - as well as Pluto. Dragons have access to a truly immense amount of magic, and would be capable of destroying civilizations, were they even inclined to do so. They are largely looked upon as gods, or at least as god-like beings.

HALF-DRAGONS are the offspring of one of the 10 dragons and a mortal. This happens suprisingly often, all things considered. They are somewhat like demigods, and possess a mixture of qualities from both their draconic and mortal parentage. All half-dragons possess wings and horns, and are capable of flight, breathing fire, and powerful acts of magic. Furthermore, they are far more physically able than the average person. All half-dragons are infertile.

For clarity's sake: children of the same dragon are related, but children of different dragons are not. The dragons have 0 biological relation to each other and were magically created. It is of course possible for children of different dragons to be related via their non-draconic parent, or via adoption.

• Kaydenn, the Dragon of Earth. His children tend to possess magic which can influence the raw elements of the world. He's known for having many children - not least of all because his planet is by far the most populated.
• Ayziddir, the Dragon of Venus. She only has one child - Sprout - as she only woke up from a (long) nap recently and is still getting used to the fact that her planet is populated now. Whether Sprout's capability for illusionary magic is common amongst Ayziddir's children is yet to be seen.
• Rielintur, the Dragon of Mars. His children tend to possess magic which triggers an emotion led transformation - like a barbarian's rage, or a magical girls whole deal. He's also famously an asshole.

GHOSTS are the spirits of dead mortals that have chosen or been forced to stay behind in the realm of the living, rather than moving on to Heaven or Hell. Ghosts have varying levels of strength, with powerful ghosts being capable of possession, telekinesis, and visually manifesting - while a weaker ghost may struggle to even be heard by a living being. Typically, ghosts with ample ability to mess with the living are known as poltergeists.

A graveyard grim is a notable type of ghost, one of which exists in all towns and cities, no matter the size. The graveyard grim is the ghost of the first being that was buried in the area, and is charged with watching over the spirits of their locale, ensuring that they reach their end destination. They are always the most powerful ghost in their area, and will quite literally become powerful should this be in danger of becoming false.
