This is a realm far above our own. It is a world where, billions of eons ago, some wizards destroyed the world with their magics, leaving nothing but water and islands on the surface, but in the sky, is where the civilizations were mostly rebuilt on the many many floating islands in the cloudy skies. It was discovered through a portal not too long ago. This page deals with the civilizations of the world.

Colonies[]

Skygard (Capitol, a gigantic floating island that can be seen almost anywhere in the skies. It's mountain is immense and some say the summit touches the stars, or the gods. The vikings have followed the human subrace known as the Dwarves deep into the caves, where they have constructed the greatest city in the realm. Here, the vikings are led by the Norse Gods, all led by Odin. These Gods were the ones who were worshiped by the real-world vikings during the dark ages, through the portal.)

Bob was a simple man living with his family in Rane, before the vikings invaded. He took his things and left with his family to a single rock, where he constructed a small village for his family and friends to live. Unfortunately for him, he is in the middle of every other nation, so now, Bob's son, Tom, has formed a large enough militia to defend them, along with hiring a single Clockwork Knight to watch over the village.

Riesiges Reich des Kaiser (RRdK)[]

The Kaiser was the German who created the portal. It was discovered by accident back in the 1800s, as the result of a failed experiment at one of the Kaiser's research facilities. Upon first contact to this new world, scout ships sent through by the KAS were soon attacked by Dorai Raiders. A single station was constructed outside of the vast portal to monitor the realm upon a vast floating rock. When need be, scout, exploration, and military airships are sent through the portal. Wilhelm Amsel had entered the land through the portal and stayed on the station for some time. However, word of the discovery became known to many in the real world, and currently there has been many skirmishes to relieve the RRdK of having the portal under their sole control.

NOTE: The portal has since disappeared, and the world has been shut off from 1800's Earth. The monitoring station remains, with some German remnants still aboard.


Colonies[]

Monitoring Station #408 (Capitol. Essentially functions as the Kaiser's command center in the Realm. Houses the Palace to the Kaiser, operation bases for the KCS, KAS, KNS, and KWS, and the Breslau Forschung Komplex)
