Draxilon

Explore the central equatorial supercontinent of Draxilon, a vibrant heartland of fate and diversity on the planet Seldorak.

Introduction and History

Draxilon, the sprawling central equatorial supercontinent of Seldorak, encompasses over 15 million square kilometers of diverse biomes, from lush tropical jungles teeming with vibrant flora to expansive savannas dotted with ancient monoliths, and dragon-haunted mountain ranges piercing the skies. Its equatorial position ensures a consistently warm, humid climate with seasonal monsoons that nourish the land, while mysterious cosmic pulls—believed to be gravitational anomalies from ancient dragon deities—influence weather patterns and fate-bound prophecies. Unique ecosystems thrive here, including the fatevine jungles where plants respond to omens and the star-gazing savanna herds of celestial gazelles, symbolizing the continent's intertwined destiny with the cosmos. These features create a realm where natural wonders and arcane forces converge, shaping societies attuned to fateful interconnections.

As the cradle of civilization on Seldorak, Draxilon's history dates to the Age of Awakening 10,000 years ago, when primordial human tribes and dragonborn nomads settled amid the "Fateful Pulls," cosmic storms that drew them to fate temples. This era birthed proto-societies focused on prophecy and survival, with early elves from ethereal groves adding arcane lore. The Expansion Era (8,000 years ago) saw outward migrations from Draxilon's overpopulated hubs, but internal growth led to the Drakfate Empire's rise around 5,000 years ago—a multicultural powerhouse uniting races under dragon-riding monarchs. The Great Schism 2,500 years ago, triggered by conflicting prophecies, fractured this empire into rival states, reshaping political landscapes and emphasizing themes of destined schisms and reunions.

Culturally, Draxilon is a mosaic of dragonborn prophetic orders, human knightly lineages, and elven fate-weavers, blending feudal empires with oracular councils where cosmic alignments dictate governance. Festivals like the Destiny Convergence involve dragon flights and loom-weaving rituals, celebrating interconnected fates across races. Economically, the continent dominates with tropical crops for sustenance, gems for arcane crafts, dragon breeding for mounts, and cosmic artifacts for navigation, making it a hub for global trade. This centrality fosters alliances like the Equatorial Accord but ignites rivalries over prophetic monopolies with isolated realms like Ixorath.

In the modern era, Draxilon serves as Seldorak's geopolitical core, balancing diverse races through fateful pacts while navigating schisms that echo its storied past, ever pulled by cosmic forces toward new destinies.
