Geographic information of all sorts will be here soon.
Geography
This section will give an overview of each continent, as well as a description of the more noticeable geographic features.
General information such as climate will also be listed with each continent.
Adnez
Generally speaking, Adnez is rather similar to Earth. It is a comparable distance to its star; has a comparable climate; comparable atmosphere; and comparable flora and fauna. Adnez is dominated by terrain that is also comparable to that of Earth: mountain ranges, grasslands, hills, everglades, forests, lakes, tundras, deserts, and jungles. For the most part, this terrain is natural - only a small percentage of the overall surface of the planet has been magically altered at some point.
Roughly three-quarters the size of Earth, Adnez is crowded but survivable, even hospitable.

Ganymede
Ganymede is an alien world, in every sense of the word. Landmasses here are composed primarily of ferrous metals; flora and fauna are relatively rare and certainly different in many regards from Adnezian plants and animals. Severe thunderstorms plague the planet, a byproduct of its nitrogen-rich environment, drawn to the vast metal plates that serve as the planet's deserts; liquid radiation swells from the core, filling the gaps between continents and squelching all but the hardiest life.
Forests of tree-like plants with iron-hard skin and protruding crystals dot the landscape, while foreboding mountain ranges produce frequent avalanches. Chasms and jagged cliffs line the landscape, and rivers of the lightning-blue liquid radiation make huge tracts of land uninhabitable. There is no such thing as a clear sky here - always the thin atmosphere is filled with clouds, which serve as a source of fear for the worlds inhabitants: dark clouds mean only lightning, but blue clouds signify molten rain, a thankfully rare hazard.
Ganymede is roughly the size of Adnez, though slightly smaller. On average, it is colder than Adnez, given its further distance from the local star.

- Eastern Continent
