[QUOTE="Creamsteak, post: 1208195, member: 552"] First of all, Enworld is a flat world that rides atop a single great elephant named Morrus. The world is similar to Pratchett's Discworld, but we have a single androgynous imortal elephant to ride across the universe. [img]http://w1.403.telia.com/~u40302942/discworld/myatuin2c.gif[/img] Discworld At the center of the globe there is a single great city named Orussus Trade City. Orussus is the home of thousands of classic adventurers, and is alongside a body of water, and surrounded by mountains with roads leading in most directions. (I need some notes on the other cities, if someone could confirm the "how far north and south of orussus" that would help"). Other major landmarks include 6 great towers that represent the elements of Earth, Fire, Wind, Water, Positive Energy, and Negative energy. Each of the primary elements is surrounded by representative countryside. The towers go down into the root of Enworld's disc. They are near the edges of the world, equidistant from the center.[url=http://www.enworld.org/forums/showthread.php?t=62850]Originally thread on the towers arcane...[/url] [b]Fire[/b] - This elemental region is covered with volcanic activity and dangerous natural phenomenon.
