What world I'm crafting?

This world is known by two names depending on the era. For some parts of the world-building, you will notice the name Titania, which is accompanied by a sci-fi theme, and Fromurth, which is accompanied by middle to high fantasy.

Titania

Titania is a lush, untamed planet in the [redacted] system of the [redacted] galaxy, colonized by humans in 3556 AD after a 140-year journey aboard the Olympus Mothership T-001. This immense vessel, resembling a floating castle, carried the tools and personnel necessary to establish humanity's foothold in this alien world. Titania stands out for its high oxygen levels and immense biodiversity, where plants and animals are much larger than Earth's equivalents.

Key Features of Titania:

1. Environment:

• Atmosphere: Titania's double-oxygen atmosphere supports massive and vibrant flora and fauna. This abundance of oxygen influences the planet's ecosystem, creating an environment of towering forests, expansive deserts, imposing mountain ranges, and a vast ocean teeming with life. 

• Geography: Each region explored by the MECHA pilots offers unique biomes—dense forests to the west, rugged mountains to the north, arid deserts to the east, and the mysterious ocean to the south. 

2. Colonization and Survival:

• The initial settlement efforts focused on terraforming plains and constructing a secure base. Human colonists relied heavily on MECHA units—advanced robotic suits used for building, mining, and gathering resources—to survive and adapt. 

• Settlers were initially few, with the majority of humans remaining in hibernation aboard the mothership. 

3. The Besten and Primordials:

• The Besten, Titania’s sentient, humanoid inhabitants, pilot druid-crafted MECHA called "Primordials." These beings are peaceful and possess advanced knowledge of their environment. 

• The Besten introduced the colonists to their world, offering knowledge and a form of uneasy coexistence. 

4. Crisis and Adaptation:

• Disaster struck when an asteroid damaged the mothership, causing it to fall toward Titania. The Besten used their Primordials to prevent a catastrophic crash, landing the mothership safely. 

• The mothership’s descent marked a turning point, severing communication with Earth and forcing humanity to adapt fully to their new world, relying on the fragile alliance with the Besten. 

Themes of Titania:

• Survival and Exploration: The human colonists navigate a harsh, alien environment while uncovering Titania’s secrets. 

• Cultural Exchange: The interaction between humans and the Besten opens the door to learning, collaboration, and potential conflict. 

• Human Fragility vs. Alien Power: The colonists’ reliance on MECHA contrasts with Besten’s symbiosis with their environment, raising questions about humanity’s place on Titania. 

• Isolation and Innovation: With no contact with Earth, the settlers must develop new strategies and technologies to thrive. 

Titania is a setting where humanity must redefine itself amidst a vibrant, perilous, and mysterious alien world, balancing exploration with survival and forging uneasy alliances with its enigmatic inhabitants.

Fromurth

Fromurth is a sprawling, diverse planet brimming with opportunities for exploration, cultural encounters, and political intrigue. Its known regions centre around the continent of Karnarass, which stretches from temperate northern realms to sun-drenched southern landscapes, with a vibrant and politically complex central zone. Fromurth remains largely uncharted beyond Karnarass, leaving vast areas of its geography, peoples, and histories as yet untouched and ripe for discovery.

Key Features of Fromurth:

1. Geography and Environment:

1. • Karnarass: This continent is a mosaic of climates and ecosystems:

     • North: Dominated by the Hardheim Commonwealth, resembling European landscapes of forests, mountains, and plains.

     • South: Home to the Enotemara Güdatan, characterized by Mediterranean coastlines, arid deserts, and lush savannahs.

     • Center: The Trucehold of Embassra thrives as a cultural and political crossroads, surrounded by fertile lands and ancient trade routes.

   • Unexplored Lands: Beyond Karnarass, Fromurth's other continents are veiled in mystery, their inhabitants, environments, and histories unknown.

2. Civilizations and Factions:

1. • Hardheim Commonwealth (Northern Empire):

     • A federation of kingdoms forged from centuries of conflict.

     • Known for its rugged landscapes, stoic traditions, and the collaborative Hardheim Council that balances autonomy and unity.

     • Though united, it contends with internal rivalries and ambitions.

   • Enotemara Güdatan (Southern Empire):

     • A federation of kingdoms and emirates inspired by a blend of Turkic, Arab, Persian, and African cultures.

     • Marked by a Golden Age of trade, scholarship, and artistry, but its unity is maintained through careful diplomacy and a rotating imperial leadership.

   • Trucehold of Embassra (City-State):

     • A neutral hub founded to foster diplomacy and resolve conflicts.

     • Ruled by the House of Embassra, which wields influence across the continent through its neutrality and strategic location.

3. Themes and Dynamics:

1. • Political Intrigue: The federations and city-states of Karnarass are constantly negotiating alliances, managing rivalries, and responding to external threats.

   • Cultural Exchange: The diverse influences in Karnarass foster trade, intellectual growth, and the blending of traditions, but also highlight tensions between distinct identities.

   • Frontier Exploration: The uncharted lands of Fromurth beckon adventurers, scholars, and pioneers to uncover their secrets.

   • Balance of Power: The unity of federations like the Hardheim Commonwealth and Enotemara Güdatan relies on delicate political and cultural balance, which is constantly under strain.

4. Historical Context:

1. • Karnarass has a relatively recent history of unification:

     • The Hardheim Commonwealth was established 64 years ago after centuries of division.

     • The Enotemara Güdatan unified 52 years ago during its rise as a centre of trade and culture.

     • The Trucehold of Embassra, founded over a century ago, has become a keystone for diplomacy and neutrality.

Fromurth’s Essence:

Fromurth is a world shaped by contrasts—unified empires that retain regional identities, a dynamic city-state that bridges vast cultural divides, and a tantalizing unknown that fuels the imaginations of its inhabitants. Its rich diversity and the ongoing interplay between exploration, diplomacy, and conflict make it a vibrant setting for tales of adventure and intrigue.
