Flora and Fauna

Flora:

Apart from their obvious function of producing wood or food, a lot of the plant life also produce herbs, berries or seeds with magical properties. These are able to be processed in order to make potions or salves that can have a plethora of effects; from healing, to poisoning, to allowing underwater breathing.

Notably, thanacae (poisonous, used in strength+ potions) and serora (incense, healing) pop up in stalls across the land, and are often referenced in literature or art as dueling forces.

Crops include fantasy potatoes, wheat, legumes and nuts. Many large-scale farms use magic to bolster the yield of their agricultural efforts.

Fauna:

Ah, fantasy wildlife.

RPGverse has it all; the classics, the new shiny models and the hulking megafauna that would make any army turn tail and bolt. Everything is on a respawn timer of sorts, carefully monitored by the Patrons, so there is never a lack of monsters to slay unless someone makes the Gods angry.

Dragons are quite common. They're similar to the D&D range, where they come in all shapes, sizes, colours and temperaments. Some are more sentient than others. Depending on whether or not they've pillaged every town in the area, the attitude towards dragons differs from place to place. The same goes for practically all dangerous beasts - if they leave areas of settlement alone, the citizens of RPGverse are totally fine with co-existing with them.

Megafauna are towering beasts, easily above 50 metres tall, similar to raid/world bosses in MMOs. They're a recent addition to the world by the Patrons, and as such only a few have been taken down successfully. They aren't aggressive unless provoked, acting more like trophies waiting to be claimed than a rampaging monster. Each country is trying to defeat as many megabeasts as they can for brownie points.

Domesticated wildlife include the Sifa (the grey squirrel thing pictured below), which takes the place of chinchillas, and can be shaved for their fur or kept as a pet. Almost all stock animals have fur, allowing for the harvesting of fur and meat at the same time. There are also fantasy-esque cows, sheep and chickens - that sort of boring livestock.
