While the size of the presently-discovered Aloria is comparable to real-world Europe, the distinct landscapes, climates, cultures, and races that cover the landscape are indicative of the world's dramatic diversity and the fantastic sights one would encounter when traveling. The snowy peaks of [[Ellador]] contrast the endless sands of [[Farah'deen]], and the [[Yang-Tzu Islands]] rival the [[Regalian Archipelago]] in size and beauty. Take a moment to read up on the incredible world of Aloria, and the fantastic lands within.
Aloria is the world in which all roleplay takes place, loosely understood to be a planet called Aloria, though many parts of it are as of yet unexplored. The snowy peaks of [[Ellador]] contrast the endless sands of [[Farahdeen]], all surrounded by the oceans of the world. Accompanying these distinctive climates and geographical features are a wide variety of [[Cultures]] and [[Heritages]] that cover the landscape, which emphasize the world's dramatic diversity and the fantastic sights one would encounter when traveling.

Aloria is the world in which all roleplay takes place, loosely understood to be a planet called Aloria, though many parts of it are as of yet unexplored. The snowy peaks of Ellador contrast the endless sands of Farahdeen, all surrounded by the oceans of the world. Accompanying these distinctive climates and geographical features are a wide variety of Cultures and Heritages that cover the landscape, which emphasize the world's dramatic diversity and the fantastic sights one would encounter when traveling.
