Places

Nexus is a large setting split into many, many places on many planes of existence. Many are detailed here.

Material Plane
The Material Plane is the most recognizable piece of the world. It lies at the cross-section of the energy and elemental planes, which provide energy and life across the infinite plane. Most of the Plane is filled with unbound magic, a type of mystic fluid sometimes called the Phlogeston, which is incredibly volatile and sensitive to magical input. The Phlogeston is dotted with Crystal Spheres, which keeps at bay the unbound magic, and inside which ordinary life flourishes. Nexus is home to any number of spheres, each with their own oddities. Most of the stories we tell are in one of these Spheres, called Halordain by those who live there.

Haldorain
Haldorain is the official name for the Crystal Sphere inside which the majority of our stories are told. It is part of the Scrythra Sphere System, which contains a total of 14 Crystal Spheres, bound together by a faint magical connection which pulls them closer during half the year, and pushes them apart the other half. While pulled together, the Spheres' external magic overlap, causing the rift into the Phlogeston, otherwise called the Sun, to split into 13 moons; Each a rift opened to the Phlogeston and filtered through one of the other Spheres. On Halordain, the 13 moons are named for the 13 Spheres, though most people do not know of this origin of the naming. These moons are Aebryl(From Aebrynis), Athum(Athas), Eiri(Oerth), Erett(Eredane), Hiber(Hyboria), Kryft(Krynn), Loth(Lothric), Mystr(Mystara), Peira(Pandora), Spire(Spira), Sybr(Eberron), Thest(Theros), and Woad(OWoD).

Haldorain: Aquos Continent Cluster
The slightly more specific area in which most of our stories are told. This area is defined by four Maelstroms, portals to the Plane of Water, within which are 8 separate Continents. This area also includes the Underdark beneath these continents.

Acheri
Acheri is a large, teardrop-like continent divided in two by a great mountain range. The western half is referred to the Chiron Jungles, while the eastern half is the Great Sand Sea of Khenra.

Aldrow
Aldrow is a continent split in two, a central island in the shape of a question mark surrounded by a large crescent ring. It is split into four main Tower Cities and their provinces, all under the ownership of the Great Dragon King Delwrensk.

Amedala
Amedala is home to great chaotic energy from the Far Realms, the Astral, and Limbo, and is populated by many Abominations. Gith dominate the continent, which has been partially torn-apart by the heavy use of psionic magic, creating strange formations of plants, crystals, and creatures, as well as many floating islands.

Anntarrem
Anntarrem is a cluster of large islands politically divided, though at general peace with eachother. They eschew the use of Crystals as currency, instead using magically-marked cards(Crafted from metal or gemstones) which track Kredits.

Araminta
Araminta is a desert continent. Genasi of all kinds are common in various places around Araminta, and bear a pseudo-political structure in many ways resembling an archaic China, with familial groups and a high emphasis on honor and dignity above efficiency and progress.

Arclent
The continent of Arclent is politically divided by many human, beastkin, and elven rulers, all in competition with eachother and engaged in a slow war with the demonic forces of Citarik, who invaded from the Abyss 70 years ago.

Azzeranni
Azzeranni is a heavily forested, smaller continent. It is home to almost exclusively Beastkin and Lycanthropes. The continent as a whole is a nest of ley lines, with an incredibly heavy spiritual presence.

Inner Plane: Feywild
A reflection of the Prime Material, closer to the positive energy plane, and the home of the Fey. The Feywild, like the Shadowfell, is arranged in much the same way as the Prime Material, with each location on the Prime Material being directly connected to one on the Feywild.

Logres
The kingdom of Arthur Pendragon, with the capital city of Camelot. It is primarily Seelie, and is vaguely Spring aspected, though roughly balanced. The kingdom is made from approximately 80 smaller kingdoms and principalities, including Nottingham.

Camelot
Camelot is the Capital of Logres, home of Arthur and his Knights of the round table.

Nottingham and Loxley
Nottingham is the Capital of Loxley, the Principality lorded over by one Prince John, who usurped his older brother King Richard the Lionheart. It is also home to Robin of Loxley, otherwise known as Robin Hood.

Astral Plane
The Astral Plane, or Astral Sea, is a Plane of Cognizance. Here, reality is loose and shifting, such that any act of will can achieve magical effects great enough to fell cities. Few structures or anything resembling structures can be made here, and they are universally held together through herculean mental efforts, or herculean magic.

Alloy
The Great City of Alloy is a 50-tiered city that reaches from Depravity to Enlightenment and spans a horizontal area larger than many continents. It is widely regarded as one of the greatest cities ever created, and is the home to many of Nexus' most powerful mages and warriors, several Deities, Demon Lords, and even a former Archduke of the Nine Hells.
