Vantage (planet)

The name for the planet, Vantage comes from the interesting fact that all the sentient races name it roughly, "Place where we stand" in their native tongue. The planet is primarily a singular landmass taking up 40% of the planets surface, while the ocean is dotted with archipelagos and reefs that are each a different biome containing wide arrays of life. Vantage has multiple sentient species sharing the land and seas, and as such the land shows serious levels of material gathering and hunting damage. The Nemien plains are barren except along the pathways the families use to traverse it. This is due to the fact that the seeds and fodder they carry would fall and be planted behind them. From space you can chart their path by the green wood-lands that criss cross the plains. Long ago the early Nemiens had killed off many of the carnivorous mega fauna, for food, materials, and safety. this however caused a rapid increase of the herbivores in the area who quickly devastated the local forestation, with mass extinctions ensuing. The centre of the plain is desert aside from oasis', and a few mountainous regions. while the outer area becomes Tundra to the north, mountains to the east, Prime growing ares in the west and Heavy rainforest to the south. The southern rainforests are inhabited by the. while the Nemien plains are inhabited loosely by the Nemien tribes as well as the eastern green belt, which is in part controlled by the Nemiens, but also widely populated by upriver Vell and swamp Vell, who have left the seas to farm, and live comfortable lives away from the cities. The mountainous region to the east is inhabited by the. as well as housing the royal nemien congregation grounds.

The oceans are shallow on average but the depths are an ancient labyrinthian network of volcanic tubes now filled with water reaching practically to the core.
