Nexia (pronounced: /ˈnɛksiə/ — NEK-see-uh) gracefully floats in the vast expanse of space, embraced by the celestial dance of two moons, Kova and Keazi. For ages, it bore another name, a whisper in the annals of history: Riven'Tol.
But then came the Nexus event, an extraordinary phenomenon that reshaped the very fabric of Nexia's reality. Like interdimensional threads interwoven by unseen hands, worlds converged and merged, forever altering the landscape of this extraordinary realm. The boundaries of what was known expanded, and the once-familiar territories transformed into uncharted territories of wonder and mystery.
As Nexia grew in size, the world underwent a remarkable division, forming distinct regions known as Neveheim, the Savage Lands, and Tol'Nova. Each domain possesses its own unique wonders, from sprawling cities teeming with grandeur to untamed wildernesses pulsating with raw energy. But amidst these separate realms, a common yearning persists — the desire to venture into the unexplored depths of the seas that encircle Nexia, in search of hidden lands yet to be unveiled.
Continents- Neveheim — In the northwestern reaches of Nexia, celebrated for its bustling port cities and maritime activity. A network of trade routes, both by sea and land, crisscrosses the land, connecting its cities and facilitating the flow of goods and ideas.
- Tol'Nova — A land of majestic splendour, known for its towering mountain ranges, shimmering snow-capped peaks, and vast expanses of verdant forests harbouring hidden glens and mystical groves.
- The Eye of Phoera — In the center of Nexia, a colossal volcano dominates the landscape, casting a tangible and symbolic shadow across the entire region. Myths and legends whisper of its ties to ancient forces and the profound depths of elemental power.
- The Savage Lands — To the most southern reaches of Nexia, an untamed expanse of primal wilderness where dense jungles sprawl, hidden tribes find solace, and untouched ruins await discovery.
Beyond the shores lie uncharted waters, a realm untamed and shrouded in mystery. The vast seas encircling the continent await intrepid sailors and cartographers, where new lands and undiscovered territories are whispered about in tales.
A Nexian year lasts 372 days over the course of 14 months. Each day is 30 hours in length. The 10 days of the week are named: Sworden, Moonden, Truden, Vinoden, Thunden, Fyrden, Soliden, Caiden, Faihden, Ryoden.
During the 1st Age, Nexia served as a remarkable crucible of biological experimentation. Gathered from an array of planets, humanoids hailing from diverse realms — including the elven planet, the dwarven planet, and beyond — were purposefully brought together to examine the intricate tapestry of their interactions within a singular planetary realm.
Over time, the enigmatic Nexia faded into the mists of forgotten history. Its whereabouts eluded the collective consciousness, until the final throes of the 3rd Age. Driven by an insatiable curiosity, a band of intrepid explorers embarked on an audacious expedition to rediscover the lost planet. Their arduous journey culminated in a crash landing on Nexia's surface. Stranded and unable to relay their triumphant discovery, these valiant souls transformed their starship into a bustling settlement, known henceforth as New Vanguard.
At the dawning of the 4th Age, the fragile veil separating dimensions was unceremoniously ripped asunder by a naive sorcerer playing with magic he did not understand, giving birth to the Nexus event. This cosmic upheaval tore the solar system from its native universe, forcibly entwining planets from disparate worlds. New coastlines emerged, landmasses shifted, and cities were transposed upon Nexia's hallowed terrain.
