Can't wait for the IC to start. This RP's gonna be real great!
EDIT: Got an idea for a location.
Again, feedback is highly encouraged:Location idea
Name: Sentrios
Appearance (on map):
Description: Sentrios is a medium-sized island slightly south of Haven. It's known for it's rather large saltwater lake located down in the center, and is a huge vacation spot for many people, be it citizen, hunter, huntress, etc. During the Kishin invasion, it recently became a huge warzone, due to the school of Mortfall doing continuous bombing to keep the Kishin menace at bay. Currently, the Kishin are found at highest density to the west of the island, in the deserts and wastelands. However, it's still safe inland, due to the surrounding mountains and the magnificent defenses of Firefall. Due to this, Sentrios is still thriving as a go-to vacation spot due to the influx of hunters and huntresses.
Climate: Tropical
Miscellaneous: The deserts of Sentrios have a low radiation level due to the continuous bombardment from Firefall, making it quite dangerous for the average citizen to visit. However, Borea Plateaus, the northernmost desert, is free of radiation, due to the lower amounts of Kishin, thus being ignored by Firefall. Soldiers from Lodestar may visit from time to time to clear out the Kishin in the area.
Love it, I'll be adding that in

Got some more location ideas (some continents)
Name: Gale
Description: Gale is a continent located northeast of Haven. It's home to several combat schools and a powerful army known for it's use of synthetic troops; not just that, but it's also one of the biggest suppliers of troops to the entirety of (Planet name, we're gonna go with "Earth" for now) Earth, due to a risk-free deployment of soldiers to combat Kishin. It's schools are the most militant of Earth, due to the government and military being affiliated with it during the Kishin invasion. It's not particularly known for it's beautiful land, due to it's desolate and harsh climate: cold, unforgiving, and very unpredictable. Facing freezing winters and harsh summers, it makes it a perfect place to train soldiers, Hunters, and Huntresses.
Name: New Gaia
Description: New Gaia is a nation which is mainly home to [many] Solaras and Ferens. South of Gale, it's a perfect environment for plants and animals alike, due to it's tropical climate. Although Solaras and Ferens can be found outside of New Gaia, many consider it their home, due to the vast generations of Solaras and Ferens living there. During the Kishin incident, New Gaia has mobilized an army and created combat schools to ward off the Kishins. Putting aside it's racial differences with the rest of Earth, New Gaia trains some of the finest hunters and huntresses to ward of the Kishin menace. As said before, it's climate is tropical; not as hot as Gale's summers, New Gaia's climate is less harsh, giving advantage to the Solaras and Ferens living there, due to it's abundance of resources. Despite this, one can find not as many Kishin here, due to the synergistic adaptations of the Solaras and Ferens.
Name: Udesai
Description: Udesai is a continent located west of Gale. Just like Gale, it has an unforgiving climate. However, it's, in particular, teeming with Kishin, due to the army and government fleeing to Haven after the Kishin appeared. Right now, it is under anarchy, being the "no man's land." It's a perfect hunting spot for hunters and huntresses, due to the high influx of jobs requesting a rescue, extraction, or any of the sort that involves going in Udesai. For now, Udesai is filled with Kishin, being a high level threat to novice and amateur hunters. Despite the government and army fleeing to Haven, there are still settlements full of people that haven't been evacuated, being a prime target for Kishin. Albeit dangerous, this makes a perfect opportunity for an expert hunter to demonstrate their skills.
I'll try to post a map of my concept once I'm finished with it. You many use it as you see fit; feel free to edit it if you feel a need to do so.
For now, I'll place this instead of my map.
Name: Aestheticslovaniaromanuvaporland (otherwise known as 美的420蒸気波のNEWマッキントッシュ)
Description: This continent is clouded with a strange purple tint. Kishin that enter the continent seem to become Roman statues and will often proceed to make themselves "aesthetically pleasing." The threat level is tremendously low; it would be detrimental for even a novice hunter to hone their skills in the country. The Kishin found here are remarkably strange, due to their harmless state and strange music emitting from their arms. All continents decide to leave this continent alone due to it's negative threat level.

Can't thank you enough for all the help. I'm gonna go back later and make up what the culture is like for all the locations later. But before i do I thought I would see if you had any input, since you did make the large majority of them.
03/05/2016, 06:41 PM #35
I'd say the culture would be up to you for the final decision; if any the only thing I would suggest that New Gaia would be highly Japanese in terms of buildings and culture, and that Gale would be a bit like Atlas from RWBY. Anyway, getting late for me, bed's calling, goodnight!

UPDATE: Alright, finished working on the continental map:
The black lines are the borders between the continents.
That's gonna be it for now, I have a week of school ahead of me. Have a good one.

Haven looks a biiiit small in that. Still that's very impressive. I'm going to finish off the OOC tonight
Also for all of you patiently waiting for the IC, sorry I've been holding off on it but as of right now both teams have people still working on their apps so If i were to start it now some people would either get left behind or rush their app in a panic to avoid just that.
That being said. If they aren't ready by Thursday I'll bring up the IC in prolog mode. Basically porolog mode would be a small introduction where some of the characters can interact with one another while the rest of us are waiting. Then when everyone is ready we can start the main event.

Oh small correction to what I said, haven looks just fine. I didn't realize the other land masses in the borders counted as well. It's all good though.
Also Zekai I can help with the bio if you like.
