the world of britannia
Kingdom of Danafor
The Kingdom of Danafor is located to the North of Britannia, and is renown for its frightening military might. Their children are trained from birth as Holy Knight apprentices. From then on they follow on in their family's footsteps in order to protect their kingdom and to make sure they are readily able to invade any other Kingdom. Though they are eerily silent, they remain isolated...almost poised. Surrounded by rugged mountains, their city is almost like a bunker ever ready for war on either end. Because of their single-minded determination, they've allowed their cities to deteriorate. So devoted, militarily, they even removed their King from power. Their main source of trade with the others involves exporting beautifully crafted weapons and armor. Because of their desire to focus on their strength, they care the least about a person's race than any of the other towns, accepting even Demons and Vampires.Kingdom of Camelot
The Kingdom of Camelot is located in the South of Britannia, surrounded by an expansive sea of sand, desolate and seemingly desiccated. Deep within, almost as if a mirage, is the glorious city of Camelot. Despite recently being raised up, they are quite prosperous and prefer to remain on good terms with the other kingdoms. The most amicable of all four kingdoms they value friendship and camaraderie above strength in combat - not to say that they are lacking in their soldiers. Camelot's Holy Knights are just as fearsome as any, some say even more for their dedication to their loved ones.

Kingdom of Edinburgh
Located in the East of Britannia is the beautiful Kingdom of Edinburgh, with an incredibly bewitching castle with an unmatched beauty. Edinburgh is rich in minerals used to make glass, and so they have incredible works of art thanks to their artisans. The Holy Knights of Edinburgh are rumored to have defended their kingdom from a fearsome assault from Vampires long ago, managing to seal them away in the mountains 200 miles to the north. The people of Edinburgh revere their royalty, each member of the Royal Family being highly respected.
Kingdom of Avalon
Directly across the country from Edinburgh, skipping past Liones, to the West of Britannia is the kingdom of Avalon. Originally an island, their greatest King, a fire using knight, began to simply create land until they were connected with the rest of the mainland, effectively doubling the space in their kingdom and showcasing their wonderful ability. Farmers and fishers, they weren't as advanced in war arts however, their Holy Knights are adept at creating their own personalized weapons to augment their own abilities.Because of their rapid ascension from island to a part of the continent they are cursed with spectacular amounts of snow every day, month, and year.

Kingdom of Liones
In the Center of the Britannia is the impregnable and the massive Liones. Because of their location, everyone considered them to be the easiest target. And so they had no choice but to raise up an army, and one that could defend their kingdom from multiple sides, and large forces. They succeeded, and kept their people safe while earning a reputation as the fiercest kingdom, even above Danafor who wouldn't take initiative like they did. Initially keeping everyone out due to their struggles, as time went on their reputation began to precede them and they could open up their borders easier than before with less fear of attack and more of an open mind to trade and communication with the other villages.
Capital of the Giants - Megadozer
Branching off from their bretheren and allies, the large tribe migrated deep to the mountains in order to establish a home. This, however, was nothing less than a failure as the climate and the food were both terrible. Finally, they had no other choice than to create a paradise if it wasn't going to be found. Every single Giant, using their Creation, created the giant city that would be later on named Megadozer. The city itself is an enormous platform, raised several miles high and several miles long, outfitted with buildings on top as well as inside. Their city utilizes a rational yet cautious outlook with visitors, being especially wary of any demons or vampires.
Capital of the Fairies - Oberon
Named after the First Fairy King, who established their city within the Fairy King's Forest. Initially, they simply lived among the nature of it all, and that was fine. But he took it a step further, and utilized the roots and branches of trees to form houses, stalls, stores, etc. Their community grew, more fairies coming from the edges of the forest to join. It is said that only a Fairy can find the capital, lit beautifully by natural flora and fauna. It is also said, that the Fairies hold a grand, wondrous treasure not ready for the Humans.
Capital of the Demons - Hades
After their defeat, the Demons had to retreat and create a home base, much like the others had begun to do. However, they mocked the grandiose appearances of them all and opted to create an underground city. Hidden deep within the Earth, accessible in an area known to very few, is the terrible capital, the burning city Hades. Lit in their eternal Purgatory flames, they have a terrible black wall around them. Inside, surprisingly, the buildings are very much in tact though very old in style, akin to architecture in the medieval era. They have an incredible palace exclusively for the Demon King and his Ten Commandments.
Capital of the Druids - Istar
The Goddess' left for their own personal place in the skies, leaving only two forms of communication in their wake. The first was the legendary Horn of Cernunnos, able to establish a direct link to them. The second was through their Druids, who could actually enter the Goddess' realm upon the right circumstances. In addition, they gave them their own disguised part of the world to thrive in. Accessible to Druids, and those who know how to 'open the door', it is a veritable sanctuary nestled into nature akin to the Fairy Capital, though they have very few buildings in comparison.
