Atoll

Geography & Structure

• The Atoll: Surrounds an island in the middle of the ocean, shaped like a ring with various cities and places of interest spread across its expanse.
• Main Locations:
  • Crystal Islands: Home to the Seers, perhaps mystical or spiritual guides, likely a sacred or highly respected place.
  • Weston, Easton, Souton, Norton: Small towns situated in cardinal directions, each likely having its own unique characteristics or economies.
  • Liberia: The capital city of the atoll, perched on a flat-topped mountain. This city rapidly developed in just ten years after Liblyra claimed the atoll as her kingdom.

Political Context

• Liblyra, the Self-Declared Queen:
  • Claimed the atoll as her kingdom just 10 years ago.
  • Despite the rapid rise of Liberia, many buildings remain vacant due to a lack of formal diplomatic relations with other kingdoms.
  • Liblyra is focused on making her kingdom influential, with special emphasis on establishing relationships through education.

Population

• Diverse Inhabitants:
  • Avianarius (20%): A bird-like race, possibly capable of flight or adept at aerial activities.
  • Water-Dwelling Races (35%): Likely merfolk or amphibious creatures, thriving in the atoll’s water-rich environment.
  • Other Inhabitants:
    • Aspiring seers and companions who live near Crystal Islands.
    • Shipwreck survivors who have made a new home in the atoll.

The University of Liberia

• Current Status:
  • The university is only operating at 10% capacity, indicating a lack of students and staff.
  • Liblyra sees the university as a key to fostering diplomacy with other kingdoms.
• Recruitment Efforts:
  • Recruiters are traveling globally to attract students, trying to fill the university and increase its influence and reach.
