Other Races Present: Dwarves, Vykon
Synthetisch is home to Metal Class Dragons. Synthetisch is full of mountains, caves, and mines as well as underground caverns. Synthetisch is rich in a very strong metal that when forged carefully by expert hands, can create a weapon that can pierce dragon scales. Although almost all Metallic Dragons are gone, Synthetisch is home to many dwarf clans. The leaders of each clan are on a council that meets frequently to keep their people from going to war.
Synthetisch is on the cooler side due to the mountains and the cave systems. As high as mid 60s and as low as 40. The planet occasionally gets rain, a lot of the time it's on the cloudy side.
The Dwarf city. The capital city of the Dwarves is located inside of a hollowed out mountain. It is not exactly documented just how the mountain became hollowed out. Some say it was done by Metallic Fire Dragons, others say the Forgeclimbers, the Dwarf ancestors, were the ones who hollowed out the mountain. The Dwarves haven’t found any writings as to what carved out their mountain. Regardless of what made the mountain into what it is today, the Dwarves thrive within it. The various connecting caves keep it ventilated and protected from dangers.
The Dwarf Village. Sitting at the base of Tessera Mountain lies the village of Lares. Using the range to protect the village and hide the village from any oncoming threats from beyond the range. The village shares a populace of dwarves and Posnee Dragons. Who help the dwarves with their forges and their defenses.
The Hill Dwarf Village. The village of Kirthaven belongs to the Hill Dwarves, who take advantage of the cool air to cultivate special plants that would later be used for brewing. With its placement deep within a mountain valley, it serves as a natural protective barrier to any intruders.
The Metal Axol Village. This village is located in a valley beside a lake. Thanks to the location, any would-be enemies and predators are easily spotted, allowing the Axols to protect their village with ease. With their metal manipulation abilities, they have houses made purely of metal. The lake houses the Astromantas of Synthetisch.
The Vykon city. Despite sharing the mountains with the Dwarves, the Vykons prefer to stay out of the caves and have set up Steeltusk Sanctum in a valley close to Kirthaven Village. The Vykons use mud and hay to build their buildings, combining the two materials to make sturdy buildings that have been able to withstand the elements on Synthetisch. Visitors and travelers have been impressed by how sturdy the buildings are.
The Vykon village. Due to their aggressive nature and the majority of Vykons being warriors, Chromehoof is almost considered a barracks instead of a village. Chromehoof Valley is sometimes confused for Screwtusk Valley due to the similarities of the two areas.
The Artio Vykon village. Steamhoof is considered a farm village even though the location is not ideal. A good chunk of the day, the village is shrouded in the shadow of a mountain to help protect the Artio Vykon from sunburn. They have set up grow beds to plant crops just outside of the mountain’s shadow.
The Shoata Vycon village. A common stop for travelers on Synthetisch due to the Shoata Vykons’ sweet disposition, however, many travelers mistake Chromehoof Valley for Screwtusk Valley and end up dealing with the rather aggressive Standard Vykon. The Shoata Vykon do their best to signal that travelers are in the correct valley by using signs and lookout posts.
An outpost run by the Gnorics. Having familiarity with various chemicals, the Gnorics have developed specialized chemicals using the resources found on Synthetisch. Ripsnarl Hold is isolated from almost all of the other locations on the planet due to the risk of deteriorating other metal veins should any of their chemical developments fail.
A massive furnace designed to both harvest metal and smelt it. The outpost stands near a metal mine that the Goblins automated to lead into their furnace.
An underground quarry outpost run by the Cavern Orcs. They harvest and identify various rocks to use for their projects on Synthetisch or to send to Teresj to be used there.
A massive greenery run by the Nycteri that is dedicated to studying and growing fruit. The greenhouse is connected to a bakery where only the best fruits are used. The greenery is kept outside of the caves of one of the mountains while the bakery itself is inside the caves.
The Synthetisch Temple. A temple built of pure metals and located on one of the tallest mountains. The temple is a gift to the Metallic Dragon Deity Hakos.
The Depths of Synthetisch. The Dwarves had discovered some of the best ores were found deep below the surface and caves of Synthetisch and decided to take advantage of the discovery. They sent their heat tolerant Crag Dwarves into the Depths to mine the precious resources they discovered.
The Crag Dwarf Village. After discovering the treasures found within the Depths of Synthetisch, the Crag Dwarves decided to set up their own village within the Deep Mines to keep up with the mining efforts. They are constantly trading with the surface Dwarves and other races that visit Synthetisch.
The Tusk Vykon village. While Tusk Vykons typically live as one male with a few females, within Rustbog, many of the elders who no longer partake in the unique living groups remain here while the breeding groups are set up in their own territories within the Deep Mines. Some newer families will also live within Rustbog until they can set up their own territory outside of the village. Rustbog also acts as headquarters for the individuals who take on jobs protecting Crag Dwarf miners.
