dark times and The Six

THE DARK TIMES AND THE SIX FEARS

A few decades before, it is said that Quadram experienced its Dark Time. During that period, all of Quadram was in vain; Kingdoms destroyed, people slaughtered, and forbidden Abaia let loose. The ones responsible for this massacre were only known as The Six Fears. They were said to be the six people with the Legendary Elements. Although they were unknown, it was rumoured that their leader was a man who wills the legendary Aether element. One of their most popular activities was the killing of Miraquans who were also rumoured to pose a threat to the Six. They conquered everything and had many minions; however they were eventually stopped and defeated by the all the Royalty who joined forces. Before they were sent to their doom, they used all the power they had left to summon an oracle from another dimension as a ‘present’ for the Royalties. For a few days, the oracle was held in prison for her mysteriousness and everyday she will give bad prophecies of the Royalties. Then, one night, all of the Royalties that joined the battle with The Six died simultaneously without a reason. Plus, the oracle was said to have disappeared without trace. Afterwards, more people died and before they died, they claimed that they saw the oracle but nobody believed the statement. After it became serious, people started to believe the see-the-oracle-and-you-die rumour and named the oracle The Banshee – the omen of death. However, after a year of the Banshee curse, the sightings ended and people started to live normal lives again. Then, Kings and Queens were put to their rightful thrones and the fear started to fade. However, a few people started a new belief and bowed to ‘The Six’ and believed that one day, they will come back from the dead and that those who worshipped them will be given permission to live.

nature

SPIRITS OF NATURE

Spirits of nature are invisible spirits that rests in a chosen human, usually maidens. There are all sorts of spirits, from fire to water, darkness to light, day to night, summer to winter and so on... if a fellow mortal inherits the Spirit, it is said that they will become immortal and cannot die of age, because they don’t age. However, if they are killed by physical means, (like getting stabbed at the heart) the Spirit will leave the body and the host will die. Hosts of the Spirits will obtain powers according to their respective Nature. Although they acquire the elemental powers, they are not called Elements but they are simply called Spirits.

ELEMENTS

The Elements are... well... elements. They are usually inherited by blood, and those who have it are called element users. There are only few common Elements, with some other 6 being ‘Uncommon’ or also called the ‘Legendary Elements’.
COMMON ELEMENTS
The common elements include Fire, Water, Wind, Earth (a.k.a. Plants), Wood, Metal, Thunder, Darkness and Light. Not all Element users are all that skilful with their Elements, as few can use the Elements to the fullest. This is affected by their own skill, strength, abilities, level, experience, and mentality. Some elemental users can also summon elemental creatures known as the Abaia. Besides the Elements mentioned above, there are also other common elements which are unknown or not popular.
UNCOMMON/LEGENDARY ELEMENTS
There are only six uncommon which are unknown for now.

MONSTERS

Monsters are the primitive creatures that dwell on the lands of Quadram. They can come out of nowhere and can attack anybody. Some are weak and some are strong. Monsters also have elements.

QUADRAM’S INHABITANTS (1)

QUADRAM’S INHABITANTS (1)

HUMANS

I don’t think I need to introduce the normal traits humans have in Quadram, but there are some differences. Humans have 2 genders, men and women. The species is popular for their rapid growth of intelligence and creativity, also the innovative trait they have. They are the most neutral species of all, as they can learn to be a Sorcerer, train to fight like a Knight and use aircrafts to fly like a Dragon. They are also the only species eligible to inherit the spirits of nature, besides being able to inherit the Elements.

KNIGHTS

Knights are beings with superior physical and mental abilities than other species. They have quite ugly features. Although they basically have similar traits as humans, they have canine sharp teeth; their skin is black, grey, or dark brown for males and white, blue or yellow for females; their hair is a shining black or silver; sharp coloured nails; hard skin; pointy ears; and their eyes are in various colours. It is said that whatever scars that the parents have, their offspring will have those scars from birth. (Example: male A has a scar on the head, and female B has a scar at the leg. They mate and they get a child. That child will have the same scar his dad has on the head and that same scar his mom has on his leg). So, just imagine all those scars from the war in the Dark Times on the species now. However, they are very proud to be Knights for their strength and abilities. Because of this, they tend to wear heavy armoury and war helmets to hide their features. They are also able to inherit the Elements, and they are very acquainted to Dragons.

SORCERERS

Sorcerers are a breed with high magical talents and are superior in ancient knowledge. Sorcerers have the ability to do elemental spells, without having to inherit the specific Element. They have similar traits as humans, except that they always look more... wiser. Although other species can become sorcerers, sorcerers cannot change back into their original species because of the Sorcerer’s Ritual; even their next generation will continue being sorcerers and bear the Sorcerer’s Curse. Although they are not popular for being physically strong, it doesn’t mean they aren’t. Some sorcerers may choose the path to become a sorcerer-warrior and hold weapons. If a sorcerer inherited an Element, it is said that its magic on that particular element will be more than 5 times stronger.

DRAGONS

Dragons vary by their place of birth. If it is born near some mountains; it’ll be a wind dragon, if born by a volcano; it’ll be a fire dragon, etc. They’re elements are known that way and every dragon is supposed to have an element. They do not inherit the Elements for obvious reasons. Even though every dragon has an element, it doesn’t mean they can use it as they want because many dragons have weak control over their elements and only few can control it by their will. Dragons are quite close to Knights, and they obey the Ryu-Demon tribe. Not all dragons have wings and not all dragons without wings can’t fly. In addition, there are 2 levels of dragons; the Evolved and the Inexperienced. Inexperienced dragons cannot talk and are practically weaker than the Evolved dragons. When an Inexperienced evolves, it changes shape, become stronger and have the ability to speak, like all Evolved dragons can.

DEMONS

(Before I write anything, it is important to understand that in Quadram, demons are not all that evil and devilish). Demons are a species that are famous for their knack to inherit the Darkness Element. They look exactly like humans, but they smell differently. It is said that if you inhale the scent of a demon –which is attractive- long enough, you can be hypnotized and lose consciousness. And the human look is just an outside form. When they want to fight or do anything, they can change to their true form which makes all their abilities rise sharply. Their true form’s looks varies by their tribe, and there are a lot of demon tribes. The popular ones are the legendary Ryu-demon tribe that can command Dragons, the Akhari demon tribe that have the highest agility and great strength and the notorious Alal tribe that can change into other forms. The tribes usually help each other in daily activities, but if there’s competition, they don’t care about family anymore and try their best to win; even if it’s about life and death.

MIRAQUANS/WATER MEN

Water men or more commonly known as the Miraquans are the people who originally developed and lived in the Kingdom of Miraqua. During the Dark Times, many of them were slaughtered, resulting in only a handful of them still alive. Miraquans have a reputation for inheriting the Water Element for generations. They share the same appearance as humans, but the difference is that if a Miraquan is hit or if it receives impact, it can reduce the force with its skin surface that can create splashes of water to prevent direct hits. The splash can then be used to strengthen it as its abilities rise when it is wet or submerged in water. Or, it can absorb the water back to regain health. It is also said that Miraquans can swim faster than any other species except the Mermaids

other three kingdoms

KINGDOM OF WIRANDA

The west is a land with very high quality soil. It is because of this, the plants and trees that that absorb nutrients from the soil grow 2 times faster, bigger and more harvest than normal lands. The inhabitants are mostly Humans, Elves, Ogres, Stone men, Tree men, Centaurs, and Sorcerers. However, the people are not too fond of their king, King Alan Quart for his lack of etiquette and his once-in-a-while over the top demands. He is also very popular for turning criminals into either trees or flowers, according to his mood. This act is usually done by his line of sorcerers, although he is one himself. He doesn’t posses any ‘Royal Aura’ and is said to be an illegal child of his mother and a sorcerer from a different continent, not the past king or he’s so called ‘father’. This explains why he has not the royalty power but that doesn’t mean he needs it. He is a genius sorcerer who once startled everyone when they found three kidnappers –or what’s left of them- in his room while he is playing with the head of one of the kidnappers; when the prince was two years old. He could also guess very accurately what other people were thinking, which resulted in him killing his servants who thought about stealing money from the royal vault; when he was twelve. The kingdom’s lands are covered by forests, and the forests are full of mysteries.

KINGDOM OF QIRAMM

The east is filled with hills and mountains, with rough winds constantly blowing, although it is done by Her Majesty, the Wind user, Queen Shala Kamira. Her palace is stationed on the highest mountain, Mount Kamira –which is named after the Kamira bloodline. There are not many inhabitants that reside in this mountain area, with the ones that do live here being Humans, Knights, Dragons, Bird-people, and Winged men. Although the queen herself is not so popular, the two Knights under her service are. Their names are Vandal and Timgard, with Vandal a Sword Knight and the other a Lance Knight. They have the highest authority aside from the Queen, and they spread fear anywhere they go. The highlands are also a well-known for their aerial army and they boast that their forces won’t ever lose a war in the sky.

KINGDOM OF MIRAQUA

The south islands are all under the Kingdom of Miraqua. It is a very peaceful kingdom with friendly people everywhere. The kingdom was named after the Miraquans, a.k.a. the Water men. The main inhabitants are Humans, Fish men, and Mermaids. Everybody lives in harmony and they treat each other like family, with their ‘Mother’ being the Queen herself, Queen Laurell Allius. Her dream is for everyone to be happy and to help each other. Her ‘Royal Aura’ is used to cure her people’s sickness and she has the ability to shower everyone with rain when they are running out of fresh water as she is one of the near-extinct Miraquan, or Water women who is able to manipulate water. During ‘the Dark Times’, many of the Miraquans were slaughtered as to bear the potential to be a threat to ‘the Six Fears’. As a result, only few Water men are left and only few of those left can manipulate the water element, with one of them being Fedan Daleous. However, the people of Miraqua have a reputation of being awfully trustful and naïve, as they are not familiar with the outside world.

the lands of Quadram

LANDS OF QUADRAM

The lands of Quadram is a wide world filled with many magical.. well.. stuff. Here there are many 'kingdoms' such as our own normal countries. there are also continents.

KINGDOM OF AVALON

the north lands are very wide and the majority of the landscape is flat, resulting in major city constructions and rapid land development as it boasts the highest residential preference far above other lands. the land is mainly inhabited by Humans, Knights, Sorcerers, Dragons, and Demons. The King of Avalon, His Royal Majesty King Ferius Ragnar is known to all as a kind and loving ruler. His Majesty is a son of a Demon -his father- and a Human -his mother-. He is also known as a man-demon who loves Dragons and as his father was from the highest ranking Ryu-Demon, he has the ability to command Dragons as he wish. His greatest and most loyal-also oldest- Dragon is Azazel, the Dark Dragon King. The King also has a strong Royalty, which is a force-or aura- that only those with the blood of royalty posess. Which is also popular is Sigorath, the feared king of Knights and the king's head of affairs, as well as the head of military and 'Special Service'. The king resides in Muziris, the capital of Avalon in the Royal Castle of Avalon. With the high population and strong war power, The Kingdom of Avalon is said to be the strongest and most powerful Kingdom of all.
