《Reincarnated As A Crocodile》Worldbuilding Part 1
Advertisement
Ley Lines are like rivers of magical energy, all across this planet. Some are mere trickles that you need to be magically sensitive to detect, others are much stronger and might give off a glow that can be seen with the naked eye, and some are like the equivalent of the mighty Nile River and can be seen from orbit.
Points where two or more Ley Lines meet actually increased magical potential more than just the sum of their normal “flow,” and it’s possible to build things like pyramids or stone circles that can amplify this even more. Hence places like Stonehenge or the Great Pyramids being important ritual sites.
Lots of Ley Lines intersecting in close proximity to each other can amplify this exponentially. Hence places like the Bermuda Triangle are especially dangerous...
The human world is full of these Laylines.
While the dragon world lay lines are bursting with energy.
Primera the Deathlady is one of very few dragons whose lair is under a massive lay line.
The Human world. aka The Rift
Rimuno
A huge continent of the human world-where most of the humans live, Rimuno is a giant peninsula on the south-western side of an even greater continent, Nonath Where the 'elite' humans live. The peninsula hosts fourteen nations, both countries, and kingdoms. Some of these have secure politics, like Grimegrove or Eldermere. Others, like the Coalition States, have a much darker and chaotic political scenario.
Geographically speaking, Monusno's geography is the most diverse of the world, having great deserts, forests, mountains, cold areas, valleys, rivers, lakes, seas, and islands. Known points are the Inner Sea, which is between Ciz, Arkol, and Sroutumnia Kingdom, the Great Lake Tower, a gigantic lake that gets bigger at every level which is also the deepest of the world.
Economically, the entire continent has a single coin: Gold.

The only continent to survive Primera's rampage. It used to host over 240 countries and kingdoms. Now having dissolved itself in other minor countries after she was calmed down.
Monsuno is A series of large landmass filled with horrors.
The Imperial Coalition States: It is a nation founded by Semi-immortals The Emperor of Mankind and The Queen of Monsters, who seeks to spread their name across the Rift and create a utopia where many races can live as equals. The kingdom is filled with many citizens that follow villainous paths, dedicated to Emperor's cause. It can also be considered villainous in its methods as its vision is to be achieved by conquering the Rift.
Located in the North. Its an unfathomable horror continent where eternal, impossibly vast conflict occurs between several absurdly powerful genocidal, xenocidal, and (in at least one case) omnicidal factions, with every single weapon, ideology, and creative piece of nastiness imaginable turned Up to Eleven... and even it has a Hell.
The "Big Bad" of the human world. A Coalition of city-states banded together. Populated with 'Pure humans' and demi-humans.
The Coalition are evil because they're "Supremacists", executing aliens, other-dimensional beings, wizards, psychics, other humans, goblins, and anything else non-Coalition race they find. Despite being having of the same races as them.
Funnily enough, people in the Rifts are actually pretty big fans of them. Despite being, well, NAZIS, more or less, they are more sympathetic when you consider they live in a world that has "People-Eating Monsters" o "Ecosystem-Destroying Monsters" AS A REGULAR FEATURE. Their enemies are often just as evil as they are, and they're one of the best shots against threats like the rogue nations of humans and other monsters. Vampire (The Strain) armies, Lovecraftians, mutants, and the Dark armies.
Coalition Troops as a whole are no joke.
Imperatoria Militarum (Imperial Guard)- the largest coherent fighting force in the Rift. They serve as the Imperial Coalition's primary combat force and the first line of defense from the myriad threats of the world. Imperatoria Navy- The military branch of the Imperial Fleet. Consists of large war fleets of seacraft tasked with not only sea combat but also transporting the Imperial Guard. Imperatoria Marinus- Elite genetically modified warriors divided into independent armies known as Nobilis. A Nobilis is a self-contained Imperial Marine army usually made up of a thousand or so Imperial Marines, as well as a large number of administrative and functionary personnel. Cultus Mechanicus- The Cult of Machine. Filled with its scientists, engineers, and technicians. They are filled with Enchanters, mages, and magic craft workers. Imperotria Titanica Mechanicus- The Imperotria Titanica Mechanicus is the division of the ancient Mechanicum that operates and oversees the Titans, the colossal combat walkers that are the most powerful engines of war in the Coalition. Militarum Lorem- The Militarum Lorem, also known as the Spartans, is amongst the most rigidly codified of all Imperial organizations, for its troops form the elite backbone of the Imperatoria Militarum, serving as its special operations units. Imperial Knights- Bipedal magic-powered combat suits from the Knight academies with a strict feudal system. & Magia Cybernetics a Caesarea- The Coalition robotic and magic beast creation units for both combat duties and support tasks intended to aid Imperial armed forces in the field. In Inquisitione de Sororibus- An all-female unit that serves the church armed forces, mercilessly rooting out spiritual, magical corruption, and heresy within the city-states and every organization of the Quod homo Ecclesiae & Monstra. Imperial Royal Cohortis- The elite guardians of the Emperor and the Queen. Quod homo Ecclesiae & Monstra- The official church of the Coalition. It maintains and spreads the Coalition Doctrine throughout the Monsuno. Although the interpretation of particular doctrine varies through the fifty city-states, any serious deviance from its strictures is considered heresy and dealt with extreme severity. Feminae Iuvenes Ex Imperatoria- They are an ancient, anti-psychic, and anti-magic militant all-female order of magical warriors sworn to use the dark powers of Inferno for the Coalition. They are the best military order in the entire Imperatoria Militarum. May the Emperor have mercy on you.

They shall not.
They are also the reason Primera, the Deathlady attacked the human world.
Current City-States:
They are very, very large megacities. The smallest is the size of a large island. They are a Theocratic oligarchy government.
For some fucking reason they won't let me post the damn table. They are named after the 50 states of the US.

Sanguine Paradise
Micheal is a young guy in his late teens who just graduated from high school and now he honestly does not know what to do with himself. Sitting in his chair just relaxing and browsing the shit-show that was the internet, doing random stuff, he suddenly becomes oddly weary. The next moment he's fuck-knows-where and everything seems rather.... odd? He was rather confident in himself, that he usually didn't have a 360-degree field of vision, and that everything wasn't always so... gigantic. Something was really off... As if to confirm his thoughts, the very next second a series of prompts invaded his sight followed by a rather soothing voice. [Soul restoration - Completed!] [Welcome to Eve] [Status...... Species: Glade Mosquito.....] Slowly taking in everything laid out before him, Micheal responded with the most intelligent and sagely response possible. "Huh......." As such Micheal's unending search for power, adventure, and family begins. WARNING:This story features a protagonist with unconventional views and morals. In a world where only strength rules, concepts of good and evil become blurred as they fade to inutility. If you are looking for a goody-two-shoes, upholder of justice, and who goes around unconditionally saving any and all people in distress, this story is most likely not your cup of tea. It can also get pretty dark and sensual at times, you have been warned. Release schedule, Monday-Wednesday-Friday
