Planet X seen from orbit, one face desert and one face ice

Islandia

The Great Realms

One tidally locked world, six domains. Each kingdom holds something the others cannot survive without — solar power, food and water, or the minerals that make the Elixir.

The Golden Banner & Megatropolis

Location

Paradisiacal climate between the Swallow Sands and the Ice Peaks.

Ruled By

Enkil, twin brother of Cassius and son of King Anu.

Features

Megatropolis — a sprawl of megacities, corporations and cyborg districts. Spacescrapers reach the cool of low orbit and house the self-evolving server farms that run the 6th Dimension.

Inhabitants

Illegal Elixir traders, city workers, mutant traffickers, mercenaries, dark-web asset traders and cryptocurrency miners.

The Royal Floating Gardens

Location

A sky satellite city surrounding and rotating around Planet X.

Ruled By

King Anu and his royal court, guarded by the Hawk-Heads.

Features

The only kingdom that experiences night and day. Palaces built on rock in geostationary orbit above the Golden Banner, protected by a highly weaponised City of Rings along one of the 26 moons.

Inhabitants

The royal bloodlines, courtiers, advisers and the Elixir houses.

The Swallow Sands concept art from Planet X

The Swallow Sands

Location

The sunlit face, turned forever toward NUN.

Ruled By

A cursed skinwalker — enemy of both King Anu and King Izisis.

Features

The entire face is said to be cursed. Shamanism is the religion, with entry points into the 7th Spirit World. This region generates the solar power the planet depends on.

Inhabitants

Rebel armies of Solar Soldiers, apocalyptic Dune Dwellers, giant sand slugs, dune walkers, dragonflies and sand-fire dragons.

The Ice Peaks concept art from Planet X

The Ice Peaks

Location

The far side of Planet X, trapped in eternal darkness.

Ruled By

The evil King and Queen Izisis, who also govern the 7th Dimension.

Features

A dark face held by an army of vampires. The Ice Worlds provide the mineral resources needed for Elixir production.

Inhabitants

Humanoid ice soldiers, vampires and snowtop assassins.

The Fallen Empire concept art from Planet X

The Fallen Empire

Location

Space colonies strung along the long Elixir trade lines between stars.

Ruled By

No crown — warlords, pirate captains and rebel commanders.

Features

The forgotten, fallen kingdom of the star routes.

Inhabitants

Non-humanoid alien beings, planetary pirates, space rebels, illegal Elixir traders and warlord mutants.

The Spirit World concept art from Planet X

The Spirit World

Location

The 7th Dimension — desert plains and deep forests beyond the veil.

Ruled By

Overlord King Izisis, who has mastered it and is believed to belong there now.

Features

Entered by dying in the 5th for a short time before being brought back. The veil to the 8th, the Dream Dimension, is thin — dream demonesses like Lilith cross between both. Longer journeys must be guided by a Shaman.

Inhabitants

Spirit Realm Guardians, astral projectors, lost souls without an anchor — and beings who are not who they seem.

Story Background

A war for Eons for control of the Elixir — a longevity drug.
