On Saggitarius are 2 large bodies of land, shaped like a sword and a handgun, seperated by a vast ocean. Scattered throughout this ocean are small islands where certain tribes have taken residence. And, in the center of the ocean, there is an island taken up by the grand Temple of the World Assembly. Every year, people come in troves to the World Assembly held at this temple, where the future of Saggitarius is placed in the hands of 3 elected individuals - one to govern the islands and each large body of land.
The first body of land, the one shaped like a sword, is where creatures of every shape and size reside. It is the country of Fantasia, where knights, dragons, princesses, elves, witches, wizards, and all other sorts of fantasy-like races reside. It is ruled by a gentle King and Queen, elected every year at the World Assembly. This land is mostly peaceful, but not without an adventure or two around it.
The second body of land, the one shaped like a handgun, is the home to technological advances, business, organized justice, drug dealers, gangs, and the like. People call it Modernia (OOC: Wow, how original, Gav!). It is governed by a President who is elected every year at the World Assembly. The government is much like that of the United States on Earth, as is the life - the people are very diverse, but most of the time live on "fast food". You could say it is a parallell to Modern America.
Finally...
At the top of the world...
Where the oceans meet and diverge, where the hottest summers and the coldest winters are...
...Is the Island of Outcasts, where those who have committed unforgivable crimes, guilty or innocent, are banished - a non-parole, lifelong sentence to the extremes of the planet.
The people on the Island of Outcasts are scarce - many fall to the punishments and tortures of the island, which are by no means few and far between.
In fact, the only "good" thing about the Island itself is that everything there is natural. Nothing is manmade. And, of course, that the hardened survivors share a tight-knit bond.
You are one of those survivors.
And the survivors are about to have the greatest adventure of their lives.
