Topic: Thardrandia
I've already put some info about this place on another forum. But anyway:

The planet is roughly twice the size of earth and has two continents: Zan, the largest continent, is about the size of asia, europe and africa; the other one, Cynati, being the size of australia with a lot of water separating the two. The larger continent has three nearby islands; the smaller has only one.

Their are four moons, one of which is a kingdom in itself; another housing dark creatures. The last two are uninhabitable.

The larger continent sits on the equator where a desert bisects it and walled off on two sides somewhere between now and the forming of two kingdoms from an empire that spread across the entire planet. Technically, the kingdoms are one as the only surviving members of both royal families have married. The two kingdoms are full of creatures similar to were-beasts(lizards, feline, canine, equine, snakes, birds). The moon kingdom has only one type of lizardish were-beast (as a species, they fled to the moon in order to escape punishment).

The days are two hours longer than ours due to a double-sun solar system (yellow and red). It takes twice as long to orbit the suns (making it two earth-years for their one). There are tweleve months, with roughly sixty-one days in each (three months having one day less). Weeks are eight days long. Minutes and seconds have an extra ten of each.

Technology is medieval-like, although one speices has three ancient magically-crafted planes/rockets. Magic is commonplace, the commonest being a limited instinctual shifting type. The rest comes from the gods and most of it is unobtaniable to hybrids because of their mixed blood. The exception being shadow magic but even that is rare.

Interesting. The technology is quite high by fantasy standards (spacecraft and all that.) But could there be more detail?

For the majority, technology isn't any higher than the standard medievalish. Only two species have access to these crafts (and now only use them as transport), the rest live quiet happily without it (many believing them to be no more than tales).

No one knows what the crafts are made of (the casing is made of a strong, amber metal). The people cannot reproduce this technology (not even those that use it) and have a lot of trouble repairing it. Such high technology is actually the only thing that's stopped the creater's species from being wiped out (they number less than a hundred compared to the thousands of the other species).

As for the spacecrafts themselves, well ... each of the three crafts is also equipped with a 'fighter' under each wing (for protection). There is also one 'greater fighter' (a sort of fighting cargo ship that was used to run down pirate ships (of the sailing kind)) of which there used to be a few more of.

Anything else you wish more detail for?

Not really. I would appreciate comments about Rakarskia, though. I look forward to reading stories set here.

I already have four chapters of the first story involving this world posted up. And I'll most certainly comment on your world - Rakarskia, it sounds vaguely vikingish to me - although probably not in the next few days (time constraints really suck).
