Marsheverse: The wonderland

The Wonderland, a world of magic and adventure, is home to a diverse array of races – humans, elves, orcs, demons, and many others. Magic and mana are also integral aspects of this world. While the Wonderland has witnessed countless epic fables, battles, and events throughout its storied history, it remains a place where various factions vie for dominance, occasionally engaging in conflicts. The Wonderland is divided into nine distinct regions (+ 2 special locations) with its own customs, cultures and natural wonders, each reigned by a different monarch. However, all of these monarchs answer to the Great King, whose identity remains a mystery. Despite the divisions and occasional conflicts between the factions, an uneasy truce exists, maintained by the influence of the Great King.

Aetheria

Aetheria Empire is an example of harmonious coexistence, where humans and demihumans thrive in a spirit of mutual respect and understanding. The demi-humans races, as well as those of demonic origin, are not merely tolerated, but actively celebrated as integral parts of the social fabric, holding positions of power and influence as esteemed members of the imperial government, respected scholars, and revered warriors. Moreover, the empire is renowned for its top-notch educational system, including its prestigious magic academy, where students of all backgrounds come to hone their arcane skills and contribute to the advancement of magical knowledge.

ageltarsia

The land of Ageltarsia is a vast domain where the Aridonia Kingdom, ruled by a rumored demigod king, reigns over a diverse species of fantastical beings—werewolves, leonin, dark elves, vampires, minotaurs, cyclopes, centaurs, orcs, and more. Though united under the Aridonian flag, many tribal cultures and traditions do not always see eye-to-eye, yet all hold a deep respect for the power and authority of their king, whose divine influence has forged this mystical kingdom into a formidable force to be reckoned with in the Wonderland. Ageltarsia is the sworn enemy of the neighboring Britannia kingdom, due to Britannia's culture of enslaving demihumans and beastmen.

arcadia riverland

A culturally rich east region of the Wonderland, where all races live in harmony here under the protection of the Great Dragon. This far away land is imbued with a deep connection to the mystical world, serving as the birthplace of many legendary creatures and fables that have become ingrained in the fabric of the Wonderland's lore. Here, the residents revere the spirits and deities of their ancestral beliefs, and legends of powerful dragons, cunning kitsune, guardian beasts and other mythical beings permeate the very air. The land is alive with the vibrant energy of bustling markets, towering pagodas, and tranquil gardens, all set against the backdrop of winding waterways and rolling hills.

Britannia

Steeped in an ethos of class and perceived modernity, the people of Britannia consider themselves the pinnacle of civilization, even as they perpetuate the abhorrent practice of demihuman slavery. Demihumans are regarded as little more than commodities, their labor and skills exploited for the benefit of their human masters. Slave markets operate openly, and these unfortunate souls are forced to toil in fields, mines, and domestic servitude, their basic rights and dignities stripped away. Despite its claims of superiority, Britannia is a kingdom plagued by hypocrisy and societal issues. Beneath the veneer of progress lies a dark underbelly of resistance and rebellion, with secret societies and underground networks tirelessly working to undermine the oppressive regime. Among those challenging the status quo is Munsteria City, an inner state of Britannia that has been particularly vocal in its demands for independence. The kingdoms of Ageltarsia and Elhame also stand as sworn enemies of Britannia due to its oppressive practices.

dragonstone

Nestled in the western expanse of the Wonderland continent, the harsh and unforgiving realm of Dragonstone is a desert-dominated region characterized by towering mountains, smoldering volcanoes, mountains, and deadly creatures. This land, rich in natural resources, is ruled with an iron fist by the powerful lineage of Dragon Keepers, a sect that has forged pacts with the ancient and powerful dragons that make their homes within the volcanic heart of Dragonstone. The focus on strength and survival has come at the cost of moral consideration, as the people of the Dragonstone are often seen as lacking in empathy and compassion, prioritizing their own needs over the well-being of others.

Elhame Woodland

A magical realm that serves as the domain of the Elf Kingdom, a land of breathtaking natural beauty and deep mystical traditions. This magical land is a verdant tapestry of towering trees, shimmering streams, and a vibrant array of fairy, forest creatures, and fae. The Elf Kingdom is a place of unparalleled natural beauty, where the people revere the moon goddess and embrace the arcane arts of healing and elemental magic. The elves of Elhame are a people deeply connected to the natural world. Despite the tranquility of the Elhame Woodland, the elves and their companions maintain a wary and reserved attitude towards outsiders. Steeped in a long history of protecting their sacred home, they are hesitant to trust those who are not of their kind, vigilantly guarding the secrets and traditions that have been passed down through generations.

Golden island/Crysos Isle

Golden Island or also known as Crysos Isle, is region situated in the southern regions of the Wonderland, consisting of the most beautiful places in the entire realm. These archipelagos, with their stunning natural scenery and pleasant climate, serve as the home to various indigenous tribes. Legends tell of mystical merfolk, as well as kraken and other fearsome sea beasts, said to dwell in the waters surrounding the archipelago. The main capital, Accalam, has become a vital hub for global trade, making the Golden Island one of the biggest trade routes in the Wonderland. However, this prosperity has also attracted the attention of ruthless pirates, who threaten the peace and stability of the archipelago. The island of Talsaro, notorious as a pirate haven, lies in the Chrysos sea, far from civilized life but near the routes of treasure-laden ships.

Grimsfall Dryland

Grimsfall Drylands, or also known as the Barren Lands, was once home to a powerful human kingdom that prospered through farming, mining operations, and trade. Centuries ago, the Grimsfall Drylands were known as the "Breadbasket of the Wonderland" due to its fertile soil and abundant resources. However, a great cataclysm opened a rift to the Abyss, unleashing hordes of demons and dark magic that ravaged the land. The once-verdant fields and thriving cities were reduced to a barren, scorched wasteland. Now, the land is ruled by the demon king with the only inhabitants are goblins, orcs and other high-ranking malevolent creatures. Rumours are spread that Grimsfall Drylands is a land full of ancient relics, labyrinths, manuscript to lost ancient magic and hidden treasures.

Nethergate

The northernmost continent of the Wonderland, known as Nethergate, is a frozen, storm-wracked realm dominated by the ominous Xhertha Kingdom, whose rulers are rumored to command the undead through the dark sorcery of the renowned Necromancer, Fraedireil. The Xhertha Kingdom is a deeply isolationist and xenophobic nation, fiercely guarding its borders against outsiders. This land is home to ferocious monsters that roam the ice-covered wastelands. Scattered across the icy expanse are mineral mines and magical caves that appear and disappear at random, hinting at the presence of ancient, unknown forces. It is said that the Xhertha Kingdom guards the hidden gates that connect Nethergate to the unknown world. Many also believe the Xhertha Kingdom harbors ancient secrets that could either save or doom the Wonderland, should they fall into the wrong hands.

celestial realm

The Celestial Realm is a magical land that floats in the sky, visible only to the naked eyes of those who have been chosen. This is the domain of the gods, goddesses, angels, and archangels. Rumors tell that these celestial beings will sometimes visit the people of the Wonderland in human disguise, offering aid or curing rampaging diseases. While some regions have built temples to celebrate and honor these divine beings, others treat them as mere myth. The celestial hierarchy is a complex and carefully ordered realm, with each deity and angelic being assigned specific responsibilities. Some rule over the very sky itself, others are tasked as guardians. One powerful deity is possesses the ability to reincarnate souls from other distant realms. The true power of a celestial being, however, is believed to lie in the collective faith of the Wonderland's inhabitants. The more people believe, the stronger they become.

Great Abyss

The Great Abyss is a bottomless chasm deep within the mountains north of the Grimsfall Drylands, is a realm shrouded in darkness where innumerable demons lurk, plotting to devour the light and plunge the world into eternal darkness. Arcane scholars speculate that the Abyss may actually be a doorway to the very depths of the Underworld or Hell itself. Sealed away at the bottom of the Abyss lives the most terrible demon in the Wonderland - the Demon Lord, also known as the 'Abyss Devil', a being formed of pure dark energy. Over time these protections seal have weakened. Cultist of the Abyss Devil make use of living sacrifices, with humans, elves, and merfolk being the Demon Lord's favorite prey, in their efforts to feed and empower this embodiment of pure evil. Many believe that if the Demon Lord were to ever fully awaken and escape its prison, an apocalyptic reckoning would befall the Wonderland.

The chimera insitute

A CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTATION BY MR X | LOCATION: BRITANNIA

The Chimera Institute, founded by the twisted genius Dr. Baltasar, is a horrifying facility hidden behind the guise of a legitimate clinic in the capital of Britannia. Beyond the Clinic, lies a network of interconnected facilities, including a hatchery, cage arena, and a lab-theater etc., suited for performing the unimaginable: places where barbarism against demi-humans are conducted in the name of science. The staff monitors every single movement and action in the institute. Financed by a number of anonymous elitists, the Chimera Institute represents the pinnacle of societal depravity—where the “strong” plunder the “weak” for their own sickening amusement. The elites, in return, are granted access to illegal substances and treatments, concoctions of their unwilling test subjects' DNA, and the privilege to witness the grotesque spectacle of carnal manipulation in the Chimera Institute.

Main goals:
• Genetic perfection by tinkering with DNA - Dr Baltasar strive to alter human DNA, his current experiment involved genetic manipulation
• Total Subjugation. The institute want to strip the demi-humans of their autonomy, turning them into mindless slaves who exist solely for their human master
