Welcome to the world of lost hope and new light. Where civilizations rise and fall. The world of Grandsalia. Creatures big and small live here and there are ten main civilizations in this world. Their lives are completely changed and controlled by your choices. This world has reached out for one to help guide it and it seems you are the one it reached. Yes, ALL of you. There are multiple of you there. You must all work together to shape this world into what you want most. Of course, this journey will not be taken up alone. You have ten heroes from each nation. They will be the conduits of your powers and you will decide the world's fate with their help. Would you care to introduce them to us? I believe you know more about them than I do. Maybe you could tell us about where they come from and their cultures.
A The Warlike (Neo) B The Peace Loving (Heart) C The Bandit Ridden (Con) D The Knowledge Seeking (Intel) E The Nature Loving (Nat) F The Chaotic (Chaos) G The Isolated (Is) H The Money Making (Eco) I The Artistic (Ar) J The Secret (Shad)
1 Normal Humans (Hum) 2 Dragon People (Zaru) 3 Crystal Spirits (El) 4 Angel People (Tryx) 5 Living Rocks (Tone) 6 Beast People (Shift) 7 Mushroom People (Shroom) 8 Fairies (Ixel) 9 Shadow Demons (Dem) 10 Penguins (Penpen)
I In the Cold Glaciers II In the Blazing Volcano III In the Scorching Desert IV In the Peaceful Woods V In the Open Plains VI Under the Vast Ocean VII On the Floating Islands VIII Hidden Underground IX On a Tranquil Island X In a Dimensional Rift
Please combine all of each of the responses above into ten responses. Basically, I'm having you make the species and civilizations yourself. Ignore the stuff in the parentheses. Those are for after you've chosen. Once you've chosen the races, their cultures, and where they live, the heroes will be introduced and then the story will begin. Keep in mind this is being played dual site. CYOA-Verse also has this CYOA on it. I'll make sure to tell you if any important discussion comes up what the other players are saying though.

Funny thing, I also have a Golem nation, a mushroom people nation and humans who can turn into animals.
I like the current setup, because that make the current 3 similar civilizations the exact opposite of what they will be in mine.
The only thing I don't like is the Penguins... I like a bit of originality, but they would instantly die in a Volcano.
Maybe give the Volcano to the Chaotic Angels so the Penguins live Underground?

I will, of course, be making accommodations to where they live and their cultural views. So they will be lava penguins, naturally.

The land of powerful warriors, the Neozaru. These dragon-like people live their lives training for great battles and fighting for victory in war. The Neozaru live in the Drago Islands. After a long conquest, they managed to take over every floating island in the sky. Their dragon wings allow them to easily travel to the different islands and they are quite skilled in aerial maneuvering. The Neozaru spend more time developing themselves and honing their skills rather than their weapons. How strong a warrior you are determines your ranking in Neozaru society. The leader is the strongest of them all. The hero that you will see this world through will be Neos. Neos is the son of this great warrior and as such is expected to be just as powerful. His rare scale color, crimson red, is known to belong to the great leaders and warriors of that land. It is said that the ancestor dragons killed so many in battle that their scales were stained red for eternity. Ever since his training to be a powerful warrior as a child, Neos has hoped to live up to his father's expectations. The whole town's expectations, really. The Neozaru build most of their buildings out of stone. They prefer to focus on functionality over looks. The sturdy material protects against attacks and often can hold its own against the elements. Neos prepared himself for his test today, walking through the arena's preparation room. He was trained to use every weapon in this arsenal. His entire future depends on how this test goes. A test of strength. He is the top fighter in his class and today he will face off against the other top fighter from another class. The winner of this battle is expected to become the next leader of the Neozaru. Neos looked around once more at the weapons and armor he had to choose from. The sword, a weapon used almost universally. One of the most normal weapons, but most effective in the right hands. The lance, providing distance and offensive stabbing power. The axe, powerful, but slow. In the right hands, you can slay any enemy in a single blow. The bow, giving distance and accurate power. It is dangerous to fight up close with these. The daggers. They allow both physical and ranged combat, being capable of throwing or slashing. They give you less protection when fighting up close, however. There's also a variety of armors to choose from. The classic armor, blocking attacks and allowing movement. It comes with a small shield as well. The heavy armor, blocking out most any attacks, but heavily decreasing movement. It comes with a large shield. The spiked armor, damaging those that attack, but not providing as much defense. It comes with a shield that has sharpened edges to add extra offense. The light armor, providing less protection in exchange for more mobility.
A. Sword B. Lance C. Axe D. Bow E. Daggers F. Bare Hands G. A Rock
1. Classic Armor 2. Heavy Armor 3. Spiked Armor 4. Light Armor 5. Just Go Out Completely Naked, You'll Be Fine
(Still writing the other nine. I'm just writing out them all separately and posting them because I don't have a place to save them.)

The peaceful city where the Hearttone live is found deep in the sea. There, the rock golem creatures live. Seemingly part machine, part living creature, these rocks find that they enjoy living in the quiet peace under the sea. They all live together harmoniously. The great city of the Hearttone is made up of beautiful houses in a see through dome. The water is kept out so that the golems can enjoy some air without having to go to the surface. They often avoid the other nations as they do not always see eye to eye with the peace seeking Hearttone. Recently, there has been something going on though. The once peaceful underwater city is now facing a terrible problem. The sea creatures they live with have all started to disappear. The ocean's life is slowly dying out by some unknown entity. A powerful monster. It destroys entire colonies of sea life. The Hearttone never resort to violence in these situations and instead decided they should send out someone to try and reason with the sea monster. This is the hero you will see this world through. This is Gol. The Golden Hearttone. He has been chosen by his people to represent them and go speak with the sea monster. His abilities in negotiation have proven useful time after time. Whenever there are outsiders that stumble along, he always manages to convince them to keep this underwater civilization a secret so that they can continue to live peacefully. With the hopes of the people on his shoulders, Gol heads out to the city gates and prepares to set out. Selecting the equipment for these adventures is always the hardest part. He has room for three attachments. Which will he take? The Cuddletron, a machine that creates cuddly plushes? The Foodinator to serve any food imaginable? The Translator to speak to anyone and anything? The Harvest Orb to grow and harvest your own plants anywhere? The Accessory Maker to create accessories and items? Who knows? Well, you do, obviously.
A. Cuddletron B. Foodinator C. Translator D. Harvest Orb E. Accessory Maker F. Pikachu G. Lasers

In a blazing volcano that never sleeps, the Conpenpen reside. These strange penguins with their fire proof down live on the rocky platforms close to the lava. While a life of penguining may seem relaxed, the Conpenpen suffer from many bandit attacks. The Conpenpen's entire volcano village is practically run by them. These bandit groups of Conpenpen control the villagers and get whatever they want, even if it has to be with force. With the recently missing leader of the bandits, however, it now falls onto Conpen the Conpenpen to watch over the bandits. Conpen is the closest friend to the bandit leader. They've known each other since they hatched. But the bandit leader has gone missing recently. It's up to Conpen to watch over the bandits now. Having been appointed leader yesterday, Conpen wakes up in his little best by the lava pools. The blazing heat can be felt and keeps him nice and warm. Conpen needs to decide what the bandits are doing today. He isn't used to this leadership stuff and seems nervous. First things first, he needs to choose what today's goal is. Searching for the bandit leader? Terrorizing the village for stuff? There's a lot of choices.
A. Search for bandit leader B. Terrorize Village for stuff C. Command that the other Conpenpen entertain you while you munch on grapes D. Take a vacation E. Leave the bandits and search for redemption of your bandit ways

Floating in the icy waters to the north, a large glacier is home to shadowy demon creatures. Their horns and claws look menacing, but they only wish to study and learn more of the world. They are known as the Inteldem. The Inteldem spend most of their lives avoiding other civilizations and live on their own in this cold area. They gather information by sending out exploration parties. The Inteldem then report back to those at the glacier with the use of their Shadow Stones. These black, circular stones allow holders of other stones to hear what the user is saying. With this, they can give information on whatever they find. Today is the day a new team of explorers is being formed. Their leader is a female Inteldem. The beautiful Demius. She will be the one you see this story through. Her exploration party is finally heading out today. Where were they going again? The information on her exploration was given quite a while ago. It must have been one of the four places in this area, so it's...
A. The Volcano B. The Desert C. The Forest D. The Plains

The Woodsen Forest is full of wildlife and is one of the greatest places to visit. Not only are there many rare creatures there, but it is a beautiful forest itself. At night, there are glowing plants and during the day the flowers can be seen in the sunlight filtering through the treetops. Here in this forest, the Nathums live. They live together with nature and animals, protecting the balance of this ecosystem. The Nathums have an amazing ability to befriend creatures nearly instantly. Their taming ability is exceptional. Not only can they get the animals to help them and follow commands, but they can communicate with them as well. Nalia, one of the Nathums in charge of watching over the forest, finds herself going on patrol as usual. As she leaps gracefully from each tree branch, her loyal ally and friend, Karthus follows behind. This winged wolf is of a rare species and has been with Nalia ever since she was little. Karthus' black fur helps him to blend into the shadows so he can always be with Nalia, even when others don't know it. As the two make their way though the forest, watching over it, they notice something off in the distance. Smoke. The forest is on fire. Nalia had to decide what she would do quickly or the fire would likely spread throughout the whole forest.
A. Run Toward It B. Run Away C. Get Help From Village D. Try To Put The Fire Out Yourself E. Summon Kyogre F. It's Not Worth The Trouble, Just Leave

Long ago, an ancient power was sealed away. This power was that of the Chaostryx. Having been one of the strongest original four races in this world, they were sealed away by the Isixel. These angels of chaos had only one goal. To destroy all life. In their reign, the Chaostryx spread war, disease, hunger, death, and disaster. Finally, the other three races decided to do something about it. They managed to seal away the Chaostryx with their power. The angels were turned to stone and the temple they resided in crumbled into the ground beneath them. Many years later, on this very day, the seal on the Chaostryx is beginning to break. In the underground temple, an archaeological crew makes their way to the sealing chamber. Fascinated with their discovery, they begin to inspect the many statues of the Chaostryx. As their hands touch the cold stone, however, it begins to shatter apart. Hidden behind the stone, angels with large, black wings break free. Immediately, the first released Chaostryx does not hesitate to cut down the poor archaeologist to find him. The rest of the crew steps back in terror as the other statues all shatter apart with the rest of the Chaostryx being released. In a gruesome bloodshed, only one of them is left. The leader, Kaorys, approaches him slowly. The leader's blood red eye contrasts greatly with the beautiful blue one on the other side. A scar resides from what was likely a long battle across his face. Kaorys stands above the final member menacingly before speaking to him in a deep voice. "Run away from here. And tell the world. That chaos will rule this land once again." In fear, he runs away to go back home as Kaorys releases a deep and resounding laugh.
"Great Lord Kaorys, what are your orders?" The other Chaostryx all bow to him and await his orders.
A. Spread Disease B. Spread War C. Spread Hunger D. Cause Natural Disasters E. That's Mr. Great Lord Kaorys. Now Die For Your Insolence.

Within a dimensional rift connected to this world lies the land of the fairies. The Isixel live here, relaxing in their days of peace until they may be needed once again. These small fairies may look cute, but they are actually quite powerful. In fact, they were one of the four original races. After the long battles against the Chaostryx, they are the ones that sealed them away in stone. They created a dimensional rift after the battle to live peacefully away from that world. They decided that if ever the time came when they were needed most, they would return. Near the connecting tear to the world of the other races, three young Isixel are found playing. One stands staring at the tear while the others all yell commands at him. The one standing by the tear is Exil. He is shorter than most Isexil, but often tells people he'll grow to be much taller one day. He and his friends decided to check out the dimensional tear, even if it is against the rules. "Come on, Exil! Jump through! If your so sure there's another world through there, prove it!"
"No, stop it! Come back here! I told you this was a bad idea! You'll get hurt, Exil!"
"This was the dumbest idea ever. Now we're going to go back and get in trouble...how do you three always drag me into these situations?"
A. Jump Through Confidently B. Reach Your Hand In Cautiously C. Throw Something Through D. Back Away And Return Home E. Convince Your Friends To Go With You

Another bright and sunny day comes to the big trading town of Goldencoin. With the sun shining through her window, Erika wakes up, stretching and yawning. She slept pretty well last night. Moving her long, black hair out of her face, Erika checks the time on a nearby clock before she starts to freak out. She slept in WAY too late! At this rate she'll be late for work AGAIN! The Ecoshift, people that work in large trade communities, are capable of turning into powerful beasts a well. Erika quickly changes into her clothes after falling out of bed. Rushing out the door, she immediately starts to map out a plan in her head of how to get to work before it's too late!
A. Shift Into Tiger And Run There B. Climb Up On Roof And Jump Across Rooftops C. Take Shortcut Through Alleyways D. Ask To Ride On A Friend To Work E. Go The Normal Route, But Run F. Just Go Back Inside And Skip Work Today

Off on a quiet island in the ocean, spirits live and create beautiful masterpieces of art. The spirits here have learned to create music, paintings, sculptures, stories, and many other things. Their creativity is near limitless, which is useful, considering their ability to change forms at will into nearly anything. Their bodies, made of crystal dust, can be formed into whatever helps them most in the current situation. These people are the Aurel. You will be seeing the story of this civilization through Liz, one of the students at the artistic academy. Every day, the students here attend their artistic classes, learning new ways to create. As usual, Liz is about ready to leave her room for her class. Which one was it again...?
A. Singing B. Instrumental Music C. Drawing and Painting D. Sculpting E. Acting F. Fictional Writing G. Poetry H. None Of These. She Actually Sucks At Artsy Things.

(Oh, good, there's only one more left. I was wondering when the endless waves of writing would end.)
Out on the plains, it seems nearly empty. Just grass as far as the eye can see. Or...is it? There are secretly invisible mushrooms that live out on these plains. These mischievous spirits tend to enjoy playing tricks on others with their invisibility. There are some known to help people in small ways as well, however. Regardless, these small mushroom people tend to do whatever they like. They aren't bound to any society and often live on their own in the open plains, just going along with whatever happens. That's the life of a Shadshroom. Shroomius is spending the say relaxing and enjoying the sun when his eye catches a caravan of trade merchants heading down the road. Perhaps these people...could be messed with.
A. Dig A Pitfall Trap B. Break One Of The Wagon Wheels C. Steal Some Of Their Inventory D. Break The Signs At The Road Fork E. Leave Behind A Basket Of Edible Mushrooms With Them F. Place A Bag Of Shiny Coins On The Road Ahead
