World Map
Ark Light:
A relatively new city that showed up on the map less than a decade ago. The light was created by A.C.E. C.A.R.D. when his ability went into Overdrive to save his mom's fragmenting, shattered spark Ability Core - Collapsing Star. (black hole absorbs a super nova) C.O.C.A. struck a deal with A.C.E. to create the new municipality and the Citadel as a governing body. The Citadel takes the form of the main light source designed to look like a lantern. The core itself holds some of his mom's ability - causing items to levitate near the center. Our story mainly takes place here.
Dawn Set:
A dreamscape brought to life from woven tapestries by their high ruler: The Architect - Carte Blanche. Everyone who steps foot in this land is subjected to a ranking system based on the versatility of their power. depending on the were a person falls on their ranking scale (10-0) will dedicate how high up in the tower they can ascend. Their realm is protected by the Angel Watch, a hand-picked few individuals who were all assigned a level 1 ranking for being the best of the best. This area is said to have a heavenly light that filters in from somewhere high above.
Sea Glass Shelf:
The carved-out edge which separates the ocean from the mainland. This area was formed by the Ameritol Island explosion. The only building out there is a light house run by the Coast Guard (Raiko) who keeps the sea monsters at bay. This area is lit up by St. Elmo's Fire and Raiko's' thunderstorms.
Volterra:
The biggest city on the world map. This area was built over a lake and is more technologically advanced then the surrounding towns. like Night Rise, Volterra is a popular destination for tourists and specializes in VR indoor environment experiences. this area is lit up 24/7 by digital lights. Unlike other areas on the map, this city does not have a central governing body - it is instead broken into districts that are run and protected by an elected council.
Ameritol Islands:
A ring of volcanic islands lit up by Lava pours. This once was a singular island that focused on scientific advancement in flora and fauna to get them to be resilient to the dark and able to be cultivated indoors. The island blew up after experiments went too far and overloaded the Central volcano, causing a catastrophic eruption. The islands are now filled with hybrid species, dinosaurs, and overgrown plant life and is relatively uninhabited by people.
Night Rise:
A dynastic sovereignty ruled by the Zhenquan Family. Everyone who lives here is expected to serve part-time in The Riot Guard; a militia or The Armored Core; full time — both are dedicated to keeping visitors and civilians safe. The area is a popular destination due to the citi’s vibrant nightlife and their creativity with black light and neon creations. Their proximity to Dawn Set creates some friction between the two due to their ruling bodies not liking each other.
Cave of Forgotten Dreams:
A peaceful place known for its unground gardens and bioluminescent in everything from the animals to the water. A few groups live here, but it is mostly a site to visit on the way to somewhere else, as there is not much in the way of infrastructure. The Cave also serves as an area archive and can be used as an access hub to different realms created by individuals with dimension building abilities.
Polaris:
A spirit area centered around a large prayer tree. Not much news comes out of here, but it rumored that every structure there seems non-corporal - it's like it exists on another plane. The Enviromental factors here are said to be so strong that everyone born in this area has an ability that can also affect souls. This place is not highly visited, aside from those hoping to find a lingering memory from those who have recently departed.
