The Map of the border regions between Easterland and the barbaric Southern Continent, completed by Clurey McPatrickus, at the beginning of summer 2014.
Points of Interest (From top to bottom, left to right):
*Human Capital City - Though this city has still not been given a real name by any roleplayer, it is actually the biggest city in Easterland and the world's seat of human power. Surrounded by a huge defensive wall and watch towers, this city is known for its tall buildings and long narrow streets - this is most likely the hometown of Yarrick, as well as many other human characters in the RP. However, contrasting the dark streets, the city also includes a cozy park, filled with grass fields, trees and benches. It is worth to note, that Gyro has a special reserved spot in the city, where he will park his transportable bar once in a while, and that his arrival is quite popular among many of the city's civilians.
*Loch Kael Harbor Ruins - Once a lively and thriving merchant town known for buildings of old design with thatched roofs, and for its peaceful civilians of different race heritage, basing their economy mostly upon sea-faring. However, it was clearly dominated by human people, but unfortunately this city was eventually raided and destroyed following an attack by the fearsome Panda pirate gang known as the Furates. The Furates were led by their maniac leader Dai Quong and his new Stormiken pet, whose power the humans couldn't match.
*Loch Kael - A quite famous and beautiful lake, which is not really a lake, since it is directly connected with the ocean. A harbor city used to be located on its shore, until it was destroyed by the Furates. The Loch Kael Harbor had a tourist ferry that sailed in circles around the area, with a bunny captain, looking at the beautiful shore terrain, filled with mulberry bushes. Water from Loch Kael also streams directly into the low-terrain Easter Games Arena, and further on to the Southern Continent. This is actually the only source of fresh water down there...
*The Easter Games Arena - A humongous circular arena that was raised for the annual Easter Games tournament, a bloody team-based sport with few rules, hosted by Vengeancekael. In the center stands a huge statue of an odd-looking chicken, which is also the mascot of the Easter Games.
**Bunny Army Base - The only local inhabitants who live in the Arena all year long is the bunny army, who have constructed a base in the north-western part of the Arena. They worship the Idol of Easter as their one and only God, having built a huge monument in honor of their deity, and will do as he/she commands without question. In the Easter Games of 2014 the Idol raised a mansion below the monument for him to live in during the tournament.
**Ruins of the Tomb - Those who fall in the bloody sport are usually buried here, either on the surface graveyard, or underground in the dark and scary tomb. Xenox, son of the Mad King, was a notable member to die here before the roleplay started - his remains were later dug up by the friends of his adoptive father. In 2014, team Maniac used this building as their base, but it was eventually destroyed during a fight with the Stormiken. The nearby area is also quite changed from its past appearance.
**Mt. Millennium - The only mountain range in the Arena is named after the rare and precious material that they are almost entirely made of, Millennium. Although only the largest of the three mountains has been named, they are all quite spectacular. The smallest one has a cave entrance which leads to a huge underground tunnel-network containing dangerous creatures and hidden secrets, which was slightly explored by Kari and some of his team mates during the 2013 Easter Games. Mt. Millennium itself is the location where Frederica Bernkastel and team Millennium built its secret facility during the 2013 tournament. Here they experienced with creating and evolving new forms of technologically enhanced lifeforms, and among other results, created Origin 23, who killed her creator Lord Xenox and destroyed the whole facility. She might still be lurking somewhere inside the huge Arena...
**Camp T.H.U.M.P.E.R. - Located near to a lively creek and the tallest tree in the Arena, this is the camp of the veteran Easter Games team T.H.U.M.P.E.R., so far always led by Am'ar Kardos. The tall tree was made into a look-out tree, and the team also built a barracks filled with thannalis bushes, a tattoo saloon, and brought a statue of Ralle the Moose. The team members usually live in different tents of their own design.
*The Mountain City - A beautiful elven city, which has not yet been given a proper name, built near a mountain range, adorned with tall white towers with golden roofs and brown patterns on the walls, and also for its homes that are finely carved out from the nearby mountain wall. The Mountain City is most notable for being the headquarters of the Solar Guards, who have their headquarters in the city's center, in the Hall of Light. The city also has a market place with all kinds of shops, and a fine bar. There are two gates in/out of the city - the northern one which leads to the shore of Loch Kael, and the eastern one, leading to the road across the great elven Wall. However, it is also possible to go south, by taking a flying ferry to Thylleon in Brightwing Tower.
*Luithen the Port City - Impressively built on the top center of an humongous wall, this city shares many features with the Mountain City. It has the same kind of tall white towers, but these are adorned with blue instead of brown. Like its neighbor city, one can also travel with flying ferries from here to Brightwing Tower. Luithen is also patrolled by Solar Guards (And robo-cops, just like any other city in the Easterland alliance). It has an active port area with hundreds of ships coming and going all the time.
*Brightwing Tower - Located on top of Brightwing Hill is an elven building, sharing architectural style with all the other, except for the two huge wings that decorates the side of the building. Thylleon the Gatekeeper lives inside the tower, usually spending his time reading a specific book series, but also provides travelers with flying ferries back and forth between the elven cities. He is, however, forced to stick to the laws of Easterland, regarding which passengers he may allow to pass the borders, and what they passengers are allowed to bring with them.
*Ryan's Villa - The famous bizarre cooking TV-series show starring chef Ryan McDonald featured lots of drugs, like the thannalis herb. After the Easterland Alliance made new, much more strict laws, and agreed to use the robo-cops as law enforcers in all of their cities, Ryan McDonald was forced to move out of the country, and built himself a huge villa with the money he had earned. However, since his death in Luithen, the villa has been completely abandoned.
