Most characters are trickling in by now, but for those of you still deciding, another kingdom has been added to the mix of possibilities:

[b]Joyfalls:[/b] [color=cccccc]Joyfalls is a continent off the coast known for it's curious mix of technology and cultural heritage reminiscent of Edo period Japan. In rural markets, stands are filled with rice and fresh fish and are patrolled by samurais, overlooked by castles built of stone and wood. In the core cities however, technology slightly better then the Empire allows for good education and quality of life for those who live there. While it is known for a landscape of breathtaking beauty, it is plagued by unique Magickal creatures that rarely appear elsewhere in the world.[/color]

With thanks to [@Tenma Tendo] for the inspiration! :D

I'm always open to discussing new kingdoms as well if none take your fancy.
