Fiorres Map

Fiorres became a Union of Kingdoms in 4902, to end disputes and conflicts between the four countries.

Attaal is the largest of the four. The south is almost completely covered by temperate rainforest, while the north is mostly heathland. It has been ruled by a family of snow leopards since 4774. The current ruler is Queen Tove the First, assisted by her husband, Prince Consort Ari.
Erion is to the north of Attaal. It is a cold, mountainous country, ruled by golden eagles. Due to their size, speed and hardiness, no invader has ever managed to overthrow this royal family, though many have tried. The current ruler is King Hamish the Third, assisted by Queen Maisie the First.
Krestoll is an island to the west. It is windswept and often battered by rain. Its landscape is similar to that of Erion and it has always been ruled by elk. It has only been invaded once, by the snow leopards of Attaal in 4815. So disastrous was the campaign that no further invasions were ever attempted. The current ruler is King Fionn the Fifth (also known as Fionn the Great).
Wiquiss lies to the west of Attaal. It is heavily forested and damp, with mountains to the north-east. Red kites have always ruled this country. The current ruler is Queen Heledd the Fourth.

Centrallis is a world in which all land creatures evolved together. Birds, mammals, reptiles and amphibians are all able to read, write and use tools.
Within the world are four continents and a number of islands of varying proportions. In the centre of the world map lies the United Kingdoms of Fiorres, which consists of one land mass, containing three countries, and one island which is a country in its own right. Each country is ruled by its own royal family, which are required to meet, discuss and vote on any new laws or amendments they wish to pass. However, the royal families are overseen and managed by the Holybeasts of Centrallis, who represent the gods.
Fiorres is in the midst of its industrial revolution, which is being "managed" (obstructed) by the Halls of Progress. Many inventors have been left frustrated, destitute and completely broken by the system they are forced to co-operate with.

Meanwhile, the Holybeasts (Sacaeredosse) are waging their own war on the world's independent magicians and any suspected allies of those with magic.
