]INTRODUCTION
In almost any RPG I play with character creation/character naming I've been using the combination Tobias, Comet, Dietrich, and Caleb for years - plus some extra characters. Very recently I've decided to try giving them their own story for once. ^_^

PLOT/WORLD INFORMATION]
Krotos is a planet where humans all live on one continent with the rest of the world left uncultivated. Pirates are plentiful on the sea, making exploration to other lands nearly impossible. Judge Elmsdale seeks an expedition to the other side of the ocean, and takes an army to go with him as he crosses the water. The youngest child of the Duke and Duchess of Dewberry, mourns for her fiancĂ© who disappeared due to mysterious circumstances. When her parents find her a future husband, Comet runs away from home and decides to look for her lost love. Following the trail of a young man's description matching her fiancĂ©, she discovers that he had taken a boat to other side of the ocean. She chases him in hopes to see him again, but instead finds herself escaping from pirates and in a strange new mystical land. 

RACES
Glacian - A race that hails from the northern regions of Albannia. They are resistant to cold, but are become much more weaker in the heat.

Merling - A race that lives near water in the eastern or western regions of Albannia and Itibon. They are capable of breathing underwater for a long time, but they become weaker in thunderstorms. 

Herboid - A race that lives in the forest environments of Albannia and Itibon. They can use photosynthesis, but drown easily in the water.

Sanite - A race that hails from the southern regions of Albannia and Itibon. They can stand strong waves of heat, but are vulnerable in the cold.

Aerian - A race that hails from the mountain ranges of Albannia and Itibon. They can fly, but move much slower the closer they are to the ground.

Normmite - A race that over populates the countries of Albannia and Itibon. They have no strengths, but they have no weaknesses either.

Faerie - Creatures that are born from crystals, they are the only race capable of using a mysterious art known as "magic". A male human may acquire this power by making love with a faerie. The offspring they produce will have naturally have this power. They sometimes also create items with magical properties, usually called Faerie artifacts.
