Zernalzon

Intro Zernalzon is a world unique for its male-only population, with diverse societies and inhabitants representing various races and cultures. The governance of this world is in the hands of two powerful deities, Shimbium and Bidros, symbolizing the cycle of life and death. To maintain balance, they created The Five Beasts, guardians residing in different continents, each representing an aspect of the world's order. These Beasts have protected the realm and bestowed a magic system based on the Five Phases – Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water – shaping magical abilities in Zernalzon. Apart from The Five Beasts, heaven and hell were created for the deities to reside, along with Angels and Devils as their servants. Mortals who worship Shimbium and Bidros devotedly have chance to receive blessings of Light and Dark magic, reflecting the gods' dual nature and the interconnectedness of life and death. Zernalzon has 5 main continents: Eizith (Central): Governed by the Yellow Dragon/Qilin, this fertile continent is the most populated, predominantly with humans. Its largest city, Knightminster, serves as a holy site for worship. Wraekuin (North): Home to the Black Tortoise, this continent has extensive waterways and is inhabited by Merfolk. The largest city, Bridgebell, consists of interconnected islands. Braiqesun (West): Known for its mountains and minerals, the White Tiger protects this land, which features the steampunk city of Steamhollow, known for its artificers. Klaphush (South): The harsh environment is influenced by the Vermilion Bird, attracting beastmen and half-beasts. Sunnyville is the main city here. Akune (East): Shrouded in mystery and forests, this continent, under the Azure Dragon, is home to spirits. Its main city, Sakuraoka, boasts constant cherry blossoms.
