Welcome to Vellichor
Adoni and Orisis—the creator and the destroyer—worked together as one. The creator formed stone and salt, and the destroyer chipped it away until it fit like fragments of a puzzle. And so, there was Vellichor, and there was balance.
Vellichor was created by the gods Adoni and Orisis, also known as the creator and destroyer. It was imagined by Adoni, who dreamed of a world of life and growth. His passion threatened Orisis. Jealous of Adoni's ideas, Orisis asked for power over the destruction of Vellichor, claiming that this would provide balance, and Adoni agreed.
Sannir
Adoni sent Eliab and the survivors from his army to an island called Sannir. There he instructed his general to build his Temple, and from the Temple, Adoni created the Dragon Pass. From cloud and rain, he formed a gateway of his own above the mountains of Sannir.
The Kingdom of Sannir was established by Eliab, an elf who headed Adoni's army in the battle between the gods. Nearly a thousand years later, Sannir remains isolated from the rest of the realm, with few trade routes and even fewer political allies. It does, however, house the Dragon Pass: a gateway above the mountains traveled by dragons and the source of the elves magic.
Sannir is ruled by a monarch and is protected by it's armies. The soldiers are split into three branches, each branch identifiable by the color of dragon scales worn at their ears. The Sky Regiment, wearing red and orange, the Sea Force, wearing blue and purple, and the Land brigade, wearing green and brown. These colors often vary, as no two dragon scales are identical, but they remain fairly uniform. The exception to this is The General, who heads the armies and wears a single white scale, representing his or her rank.

The Middle Islands
The Middle Islands were messy, with few rules and many gods. Though the kingdoms seemed to thrive, the people there had no respect for Adoni or his magic and even less for the elves of Sannir.
The Middle Islands are made up of seven territories, each sovereign. The most notable is the City of Potri, ruled by the Allerick family. Its one of the few territories to openly trade with Sannir, and is home to stunning glass architecture that is certain to catch the eye of travelers.
