Course One; Andaline River Silvery waters rumble gracefully over smoothly erroded river rock. Many upon many old oak trees line the muddy banks, their shadows dancing playfully on the sparkling blue waters. This is the Adaline River. Small animals such as foxes or rabbits play around the rocks, and deer come to calmly graze. This is a region of a shimmering serenity; where even the predators befriend the prey. It looks like a beautiful lounge spot; perfect for setting up a temporary camp or to play around in the waters on a hot day. But instead, these river banks are used for learning the baisics. No fighting, the true training does not begin yet, but it will soon. Course Two looms ahead on your path, seeming not as distant as it did before; but for now, sit back, relax and memorize what your teacher is telling you. Moderators: nolarboot., Mei

Course Two; The Arena Welcome to Course Two, Soldier. This is where the real training begins; Physical training. In this course, crumbled, yellowed walls of stone lay in the surrounding area, projecting a sense of dormant beauty that once was so very arresting at its prime. Yet, still today it stands in all its erroded, bleached allurement. So, tread past these ancient, fragmented walls and into the golden arena. The roofless structure allows the sun to beat down mercilessly upon both you and your teacher, and you will be trained in the art of fighting, but you must pay attention for the real test is forthcoming in your near future. This might not be as easy as it once seemed! Moderator: Lucion

Course Three; The Silver Forest Mysteries hide within these glowing trees. Some shout, "Supernatural!" While others scoff, "Nonsense." But, there is one thing that no one can deny; There's something lurking deep within those trees. Watching. Waiting. This much, we know is true. Many have wandered into this forest, fueled by curiosity, and have turned up on their own doorstep; Dead. Murdered. But by what? What kind of monster stays in one place for so long? This is your first real test. Can you survive this 'demon,' fight, win, and gain at your teacher's approval? Its a very thin line between courses Two and Three. If you fail this teast, your teacher must then take you back to the arena and reteach you. So I advise you to try your best and maybe you'll get to see Course Four. Moderator: Queen Eros VI

Course Four; Dragonbone Hills Here, close to the final task. You've proven yourself so far, but can you surpass even your known abilities? Within the rocky terrain of Dragonbone Hills, creatures on unimaginable evil lurk within these parts. Your task is to survive, alone, for an entire week. Can you do it? Many enter with hopes of becoming stronger, more wise and one of the Elite's. However, you'll not only face enemies only nightmare's dream up, but you'll face your true self. The horror that happens within these hills cannot be described. Are you brave enough?
Course Five; Desert Elvon Alas, throughout your journey, young Solider, you come to this. The unbearable Elvon Desert. Your past assignments and tasks has been child's play compared to this one. Scortching heat is the primal killer of many young solider's like yourself, but there are other things in the desert you might not be aware of. Tricky things happen when you have no water, no food. People change from this deadily course, but anyone who shall pass it is born renewed. With your teachers approval, you may start the journey....across the Elvon Desert. Moderator: Queen Eros VI

Twdor
Twdor Twdor is a properous city, able to defend its own. With their Queen leading them, many wars are fought and won for this glorious country. It has a beautiful scenery, with lushes forests to border around, sheilding it from the evil outside. Within the southern edge of Twdor is the enormous stone temple that the Stahl family dorm. Their cities expand over a vast of land, with thousands of residents. Many people come here to excel in their wealth. The rich soil, and abundant amount of rain grows perfect crops. Farmers sweep over Twdor, with merchants and Noble Men living within the higher, wealthier area of Twdor. Though great, this country is seperated by class. Poor and farmers are within the top border of Twdor, having a very tall, elevated wall to keep them from the inner parts of the country. Closer into Twdor are the knights and soliders of the throne. There, in their middle class homes their taxes are reduced tremedously. They too, however, have a wall to keep them at bay. At last, towards the center into the southern border are the noble and royal. The Stahl family in their kingdom, and their high ranked counsel men live in this part. They live in luxury, with low -- if not any -- taxes. Twdor is constantly growing, their boundaries expanding; the neighboring countries idealize, and respect this honored kingdom.

Andalia Andalia City, a place of diversity in the world. Residing in Andalia are many unsual creatures. Filled with riches galore, many of the unwanted arrive here to take advantage of others. Pickpockets are common, but so are those who would bless you with riches beyond your imagination. Those who are in need travel to Andalia in hopes of being graced. People of Andalia are kind-hearted and welcome you with love to their homes. Dark ones take advantage of this and travel to the city often. Extravagent buildings line the smooth-lined roads. Architecture within the city is well developed and many of the buildings are well made, down to the smallest detail. The roads have existed a long time and lay flat, being easy to travel on foot and by cart, if you ignore the fact that the city streets are usually crowded. On the edge of the city lies a turquoise bay, where most of the city's trading happens. When standing on the edge of the city, near the bay, you can see the sunset perfectly, as it sets, on the water's horizon. Magnificent colors fill the sky around twilight, making the bay a romantic place.

Ion Known around the world as the "Harmony City," Ion houses both Humans and Demons within its walls. Peace thrives here inside this gorgeous city; leaving the place nearly crimeless. And without crime, wealth is abundant. With this fortune, many upon many great structures have been built, enemies working together, living together, in a calm unity. The white-stone streets almost seem to sparkle underfoot and homes are lined in gold and silk. People here are always friendly and caring; similar to a small community. But Ion is no small place, and with its powerful army, it expands its borders almost daily. With both strength and beauty, this place is almost like heaven to a newcomer. So many sites, smells, and wealth that one's senses are almost overloaded as soon as they set foot into the walls; everywhere they look, someone has a smile on their face. Fighting is outlawed in this wonderous place, yet small teachings do continue here. Ion's humble residents welcome everyone that steps forth here, but in rare cases, evil lurks through into their united city, it is surely destoryed for everyones security. No one is forgotten or discriminated within Ion. For this is the Harmony City.

Fidadel Fidadel City, ruthless and merciless to the core. Assassins, theives, and even more than you can imagine originate from this town. Dark ones gather here, either to live, or conspire against the good people of other towns, or even the stray ones that happen to live in Fidadel. Overgrown streets mark how unused they are, while the trees grow thickly above the town, keeping most of it in shadows. If one were to walk through this city, there is no doubt they would be harmed in some way. People here do not stop at pickpocketing, like they do in Andalia. Here, they would attack you full on to get your money, leaving the passerby in a bloody mess, if they weren't killed. It is not safe to travel here alone, or with a friend... Unless your friend happens to be an assassin themself. Dark spaces between the run-down buildings are filled with evil happenings. Little is known about the history of the residents in this town, but what it is like now, there's nothing to tell. They're all cold-hearted and dark, with a rare warm-hearted person every once in a while. Homes here are nothing like the ones in Andalia. Scared and broken down, some lay in pieces while others don't look very sturdy as they try their hardest to remain standing.
Cyuvari The city of Cyuvari is what any rumor will tell: it is death. Their walls are painted with the night, for this is a dark, dark place. The residents contain only the race of demons; only the merciless can survive here. Any human that dares to step within the limits of Cyuvari is sure to be killed. No place can surpass the evil, the treachery that happens within these parts. Many lifes have been cut to an adrupt stop before they can even turn back. If you are born into this place, there is no chance you'll ever change your cold ways. Here, they live and die in misery. Hate darkening every heart. The crimes commited here have overwhelmed any purity that could be shed from an innocent. Murder is a daily part of life here; hardly anywhere in this city there is not at least a single dead body. The demons wreck their evil as they hurt -- and kill -- those weaker than them. Your one and only survival method is to become what one cannot turn away from: your own worst enemy. You must face the reality that you can die at any moment, and develop a body and attitude that shall prevent it. Once you have led yourself down this path, you are doomed for an eternity. There is no escaping the devil, Cyuvari has proven that.
Natari Natari, realm of those who deal in lies and weave in deciet. On the edge of a desert that expands to the point of no return and beyond, Natari is a wasteland, full of beggars and thieves....and mercinaries and assassins, if you know how and where to look. The people walk the streets with cloth covering their faces, either to protect themselves from the searing sand that whips through the air, or to hide their indentities. The roads are barely roads, eroded and scraped away by time and sand. The sun here beats down endlessly, painful and scorching, and the wind lashes at you like whips. Watch your step, Traveler, because all is not well in this wasteland of sand and sun. There lies few that are good, and Dark ones haunt your step. So pull up your hood and take a chance at the dice. Pray they fall in your favor. Welcome to Natari.
