Description Maveres is a region defined by its sharp coastlines, mountain ranges, and uniquely red tinged plant-life, this has greatly influenced the shaping of its citizens lives.

Its more wooded areas are considered quite the view with their striking colors and and sweet smells. Along with being stunning Maveres is the top food export of the world, its lands being rich in exotic animals and fruits. Often merchants will go to any lengths to attain just a seed.

Physical - The people of Maveres have inhabited the land-mass since before recorded history, though it is suspected they originated here. This group ranges in ethnicity and culture seeing as it is so large. Southern Maverian's are extremely similar to the people of Lunari Island, their ancestors likely being the same or closely related. While northern inhabitants have cross-mated with near every other ethnicity on the planet, this being a result of extensive trading with the outside world and thus intermingling.

The Story of Creation

Since the beginning of time a group of elites lived in the clouds, these 'people' harnessed immense power, some being able to control the winds or tides, and some being able to control life itself. In this civilization of higher beings lived a young boy, Lotor. He was the son of the very highest member of the gods, and as such, had the most power of anyone. He was always drawn to what was forbidden, especially the creation of new life. The consequences of breaking this law was immediate exile to the mortal planet Earth. After careful debate with himself he figured he could get away with just one little life, and so, created a wife for himself out of the clouds, breathing life into her from his own. Managing to keep his bride a secret from the rest he thought he would get off scott-free, however this was far from the truth. His brother Favian had discovered the makeshift woman and reported back to their father. Lotor and his bride were swiftly exiled. Years after their exile he hatched a revenge plot against his father; he and Laveta birthed an empire of mortals and spread them across the world, and such is the story of how humans came to inhabitant the world.

Ancestral Gathering - Every full moon, when the constellations are most visible villagers young and old gather under the stars to share and tell stories of their ancestors. This is a time to appreciate and celebrate our fallen loved ones. Towards the end there is a feast of plump pheasants, rabbit, and prey of all sorts including some rare delicacies recovered by the hunters the evening prior.
