Everyone loves traveling in a group, better than being a lone, and a lot safer to boot. Groups include Kimunkle clans, +Anima traveling together, human wanderers, etc... Post your groups here, with who is where.

itanii is known for it's heavy snowfall and frigid weather. It's a small town where everyone knows everyone else. They are very welcoming of all people, including +Anima.

Kelmar is the capital of Illias, and it is very crowded. There are a few +Anima and Kimunkle slaves, but since the place is always busy and full of life, they can usually blend in with the crowd. A huge castle in the center of the city attracts people from miles away. Colosseum matches are a major source of entertainment, and the Colosseum itself is located in the castle.

Linar is a small town littered with hot springs. It is the ideal retirement village for the elderly. There aren't any +Anima or Kimunkle slaves here, but that doesn't mean there isn't any prejudice against them. It is a tourist attraction, and most people besides retirees are just passing through, enjoying the hot springs while they can.

Teldaious is a place best known for its harsh weather and slippery terrain. Mainly Kimunkle reside in Teldaious, as the weather is too cold for mot humans to handle. The highest temperature in Teldaious was a whopping -5 degrees Fahrenheit.

Meridiean is a beautiful place. On the frozen lake, people have built houses, and in the center is a castle that looks as though it was made of ice. Even though it is marvelous to look at, it is very chilly, and +Animas and Kimunkles aren't welcome. Period. The people like to think their town is as clean as the frozen water.

Guapek is a town that is a mixture of +Anima, Kimunkle, and Human, but it is predominantly Kimunkle. There are no houses, but there are plenty of tepees. Anyone who lives here is close to nature, maybe too close for some...

This city is actually more like a fort. There are giant walls that seal the place off from intruders, and only one entrance in, which is constantly guarded by soldiers. The +Anima and Kimunkle slaves here are used for military purposes and little else.

Havar is a city that is underground. The temperature there is mildly chilly, and the city is lit with lanterns. It's a city where mostly +Anima reside, for it is their safe haven. The only way to get to the city is if you know your way through the labyrinth of tunnels.

Kashita is a city located in a basin, which hides some residents. It is a perfect place for criminals, refugees, and escaped slaves. The guards there like to turn a blind eye to any minor crime and are easily bribed. Most people there don't go out at night.

Albi is a town on the docks. The few slaves there are only used to help catch fish, as it is their major export. There are a few restaurants, and all of them serve fish as their main meal, which is never bad, if you like fish.

Favitor is a city populated predominantly by the upper class. Everything looks brand new, and clear as crystal. There are few +Animas and Kimunkles here, but the ones that are "slaves" are actually more like pampered pets.

Barougeiny is almost a ghost town. It is desolate, with extremely harsh winds and freezing temperatures. The sun is never out because it is always snowing, usually enough to be a blizzard. The town is almost always covered in snow, and the houses usually get blown down. Hopefully, the foundation of your house is very strong if you plan on living there.

Plasetius is a neutral town, in war and in ideals. It is the connection between Illias and the other lands, so it's mostly a trading city, with a wide variety of both imports and exports. They have a "don't ask, don't tell" policy when it comes to +Anima and Kimunkle. If one shows of their anima while in town, most of the people won't care, but slavers make a huge profit by capturing them, as business flourishes in the towns Plasetius trades with.

A thick fog hides Chamine from the human eye. It is a great place to hide for a while. Surprisingly, there are few lawbreakers here. It's mostly comprised of escaped +Anima and Kimunkle slaves, and they have their own order unlike anything in any of the other cities. There isn't a palace. Rather, the elder calls the shots in times of need, but otherwise it's a democracy. No guards are around here, yet everyone remains civil. The fact that the city is almost impossible to find attracts the occasional researcher or thrill seeker.

Dinate is the crowded, capital city. Anyone can pursue their dreams there, whether they are +Anima, Kimunkle, or Human. They have a castle there, and the Queen who lives in it is very compassionate, considerate, and wise, so the city was named after her about 20 years ago. People come from miles around to ask for her wisdom. Now, she is reaching old age, and is grooming her daughter to take over.

Inaut is a town that resides atop a glacier. It is the perfect place to go for a vacation if you like cold weather and lots of ice. The people here have fashioned aqueducts made completely out of ice that work despite how impossible it seems. The greatest engineers in the world have been to this city at some point. As long as no one reveals they are +Anima or Kimunkle, they can stay as long as they'd like. It is strongly advised they leave if they do tell someone, though, as most great engineers are also people who own slaves, and slavers like to live there as a result.

Gerii is a very disorganized town, huts scattered everywhere. The weather is relatively mild for a mountain, and anyone who comes there gets a warm welcome by the townsfolk. But, be warned, if you wish to do harm: everyone who lives here is armed with hunting gear, and most are +Anima or Kimunkle.

Faeth is a city on Mt. Faeth. It is a place where everyone comes to get a view of the nearby ocean, or that's how it used to be. The city has become overpopulated, and people have been making factories there to provide work for people. Now, the place is polluted, and is famous for its "black snow."

The moderate temperatures and the beaches attract tourists for miles. Kalmine is famous for its fish, and they don't care about whether or not someone is a +Anima or Kimunkle as long as they buy something while they are there.

Altaka is a place surrounded in myth and legend. Nobody knows how it came to be abandoned, but everyone says that any who stay are going to die within 24 hours of their stay, which makes it a perfect hideout for any +Anima or Kimunkle who want to disappear.
