Yogs Fanlore Locations and History

(Locations under the cut!)

Craftia

Deity: Kirin, God of the Heart and Time Located: Between Earth and Mars Size: the size of Mars Residents: Villagers Description: Although gravity here is average for living creatures, most matter tends to wind up floating in the skies for various reasons, though experts can't exactly agree on what the causes are. Many resources here form its material in unique grid-like structures that make it very easy to cut into blocks, break apart, and put back together again in creative structures. It's Minecraft. History: Created by Kirin after the Big Bang, this planet is home to the Villager, a race of human descendants who have evolved to acclimate to the planet's cool, even temperatures and stagnant biomes. Upon awakening from their sleep, Kirin found the Villagers in a war-torn state, surrounded by the blood of their fallen, weak from poverty, famine, plague, and scarcity. Seeing what little they could create wind up so desolate and dead, Kirin was brought to tears so strongly they brought waves and oceans of healing water to the planet, ushering in a new era of life - the sick healed, wounds closed, crops renewed, and soon, society restored. Although, as a result, Villagers ended up relying a little too heavily on their god... Humans and other such visitors were unable to make contact with the planet for so long, but began visiting around the 19th century. Since then, trading and colonies have become more and more common, and in today's society it is still rare but a common rarity to see a space travel company offering a one-way trip... since rockets and other space-faring vehicles tend not to survive the trip through the thick, electrified atmosphere. However, Craftia is now home to one of the most diverse cast of different races/species in the solar system!

Earth

Deity: Quetzal, God of Life and Form Located: ...oh, yknow Size: 40,075.017 km (24,901.461 mi) measured around the Equator Residents: Humans Description: What's there to say about the Earth? You live here! ...ok fine... Technology is much more advanced than what we know now - clean energy prevails in larger countries, though don't you worry, capitalism and shady business practices definitely do still exist. Its Humans are mostly science-oriented, but due to their curiosity - a behavior very unique to them - they vary in impression, temperament, personality, and so on... even whole groups and cultures can vary wildly from each other! History: For the most part, its history remains the same... ok, except dinosaurs only existed about twice as opposed to the weird actual real-life history we live with today. Also, the Library of Alexandria never burned, so technology advanced here at an incredible rate, and Libraries are considered absolutely crucial to societies around the globe. God is real and they (mostly) abandoned their planet, living in fear of the violence of some humans, and the effect they themself have on their mortals when in direct contact with them. However, that didn't stop them from observing their humans, sometimes making contact and... falling in love...

Twilight

Deity: Chimera, the God of the Mind and Space Located: Between Earth and Venus Size: ??? Residents: An enormous variety of Fae, and Dragons Description: Twilight is a strange land that seems to stretch on forever. Looking at it from space usually never yields the same results twice. Experts on Earth argue it doesn't actually exist at all, or at the very least isn't actually a planet. Whatever is sent there to observe it winds up with extremely poor recorded evidence, and anyone who views its footage can't seem to agree on its results. Where science falters, however, those who are magically inclined prevail. Some say there's an ancient ritual to open a portal to their world, but of course, not many succeed... at least not on Earth. Also the dinosaurs shared between Earth and Twilight survived here, and evolved into dragons, an ancient and highly sophisticated and powerful race of intelligent creatures. History: When Chimera first awoke, they emerged from the planet's largest mountain - their resting place. The Fae, who are naturally magically inclined, recoiled in horror as they sensed Chimera's overwhelming power. Paranoid, they shunned and revolted against their god, who retreated up the mountain, allowing their people to succumb to war and other tragedies. Until, a lone tree elf rose to the challenge, and traversed the mountain's harsh terrain to talk them down. Since arriving back on Twilight, efforts within the government had been made to incorporate new laws within the fae realm, bringing order to a once-chaotic realm. Still, they've suffered many battles and infighting time and time again, much like Earth - fighting for rights, against racism, for land and resources, against too-powerful rulers, and so on. Much later, Twilight suffered a war with the early-century humans of Craftia, losing one of their most powerful leaders... Aislin, the tree elf. Since her death, the government - the Seelie Court - has witnessed some corruption as of late...

Nether

Deity: Lucifer, the Blood King Located: on Pluto Size: it's Pluto Residents: Demons, Piglins/Pigmen Description: This is Hell. You're in Hell. The walls are flesh and blood, the air is fire, the lakes are lava, and there's massive floating disembodied heads of dead angels wailing for their deaths. Not to mention the various undead living there. The only difference between this and canon Nether, is that there's demons here, too. They inhabit the Fortresses, and their primary goal is serving Luci, who promotes his blood magic as a way to gain power so that he can eventually challenge his creator and do what he feels is right by humans - giving them the justice and care they deserve. But he's kinda lost himself along the way. History: It's a little hard to discuss the Nether's history without going all the way back...so I apologize for the length! Lucifer was once an incredible angel, who always did as told, and didn't see the bigger picture of things. In helping Quetzal with his various tasks, he realized that the creator only wanted to serve their own agenda, and let the humans do whatever they wanted - consequences included. With the idea of a perfect world in his mind, Lucifer refused to help any further, and orchestrated an uprising against Quetzal. The uprising was met with harsh punishment, and they abandoned Lucifer and his band of angels, sending them away in a harsh fury of flames. They crashed on Craftia, and Kirin took pity on them, knowing that Angels couldn't survive outside of the Aether for very long. Working with Chimera, who originally created the angels with Quetzal, the two traveled to Pluto to create an oasis for them. However, without Quetzal - the god of Form - their oasis was imperfect and quickly began collapsing. The angels couldn't survive. Lucifer, thinking quickly, did everything he could to help them live - including sacrifice, using criminals and those who'd committed evil deeds, to avoid bringing the innocent to an unjust end... Blood rituals were the only thing keeping them alive, but soon it became too much for them. The angels - The Virtues - turned into beings of the deadliest sins, and withered into suffering husks of their former selves. Lucifer, as the forefront of his blood research, is the only remaining ruler... having consumed so much blood, he now remains the most powerful being in his realm, demons having been reborn from the ashes of those he'd sacrificed.

Aether

Deity: N/A - the Trio (Kirin, Quetzal, and Chimera) use it as "neutral space" Located: The Sun Size: theoretically infinite Residents: Disembodied souls, and Angels Description: Located within the Sun, this would be considered Limbo, or the Afterlife. It's where people go when they die, where Fae create liminal space / draw their energy from liminal space, where souls are judged and sent to other areas, and where Paradise and Eden are located. It's a very busy place, looks like an empty white void backrooms-y area with different rooms acting as portals to other locations or areas within the Aether, including Paradise. Paradise is where the Angels live, as well, and it looks and acts however the soul viewing it does (except to angels, who see it as whatever the more mortal soul/s see it as). Within Paradise is Eden, a garden of course, and where humanoids were first created. The white-hot exterior of the sun protects the pocket dimensions of the Aether within it, and only allow the Gods and the Angels to pass through it. History: The Aether was created when the Gods (mostly Quetzal) were beginning to get the idea to create humanoids. In the very beginning, it merely looked like a glass room, completely transparent and outside of the Sun. But before the gods fell asleep, under the instruction of "The Voice in The Sky" (or, the Ender Dragon as we now know her), Chimera worked with Quetzal and Kirin in placing the room within the Sun, and there, created Eden... the perfect garden, a sanctuary for them and the souls of their creatures to rest when all was done. When things started to become more hectic and saw more traffic as more and more people were born and would die, Quetzal and Chimera band together to create Angels to help with all the work. These creatures were resistant to the hottest of flames, and thrived in the holy atmosphere of Paradise. Created without Heart, they could think more clearly and perform duties more easily... but for some reason, their biggest flaw - despite their immense power - is that they cannot survive outside of the Aether (without godly assistance) for very long. A few years, at best. And when Angels die, they don't get any chances to respawn or be reborn, no matter what.

Lumina

Deity: None. Located: in another solar system entirely! Size: about a 25% size increase to Earth Residents: Lumians Description: An alien planet, inhabited by the oddly humanoid Lumians. These people exist as the only humanoids in their district, surrounded by hundreds of other sentient beings of races who are anything but! This planet is rich in bioluminesence and largely populated by massive buglike creatures, who are killed for their dense alien bug meat, strong carapaces for architectural purposes, among other body parts used for scientific purposes. There are thick outer jungles, dense foggy swamps, husks of bug dens, and large saltflats and deserts - which is where most Lumian cities are located. Their society is incredibly progressed, technology-wise... but very lacking in creativity, emotional progression, and other social aspects. History: Quetzal had fallen in love with many humans throughout Earth's history, especially in early history, but unfortunately the children they sired with their partners usually turned out...different... they were monstrous, and animal-like. Other humans tended to fear them, and try to kill them, so the god needed somewhere to keep their kids safe and not let Kirin and Chimera know of their mistakes. They had the angels help take their lovers, their children, worthy guards, and plenty of other members of society who were trustworthy enough to keep everyone safe and healthy and happy. Scientists, warriors, poets and artists, architects...they all began a life on this alien planet, and eventually - throughout the generations - became a singular people; Lumians. Thankfully, there's not much to say about their history. They explored their world, conquered untamed lands, and pretty much didn't need to fight over land or resources - there was always plenty to go around. Wars never happened because there was no reason to disagree or escalate things. That doesn't mean that once they rose to intelligence high enough for space faring, that they had the courtesy to view other races in equal lighting. Along the way, they also lost their own history, so they (as well as Earth) have no idea why they're the only humanoids so far away - and incorrectly assumed it's because their ancestors neglected to document ancient space faring technology. Due to the emotional inclinations of humans, Lumians feel they're inferior to themselves, and at worst, can treat them as pests or pets.

The Asteroid Belt

Deity: None Located: between Craftia and Mars Size: a relatively small, packed-together ring of asteroids that range from the size of a house, to the size of a skyscraper Residents: A space station of Earth Humans Description: This asteroid belt is most like how we see in cartoons and scifi - packed together, too dangerous for ships to fly though, and more like a big ring in the solar system. It's very easy to avoid it, and although you CAN cling to the asteroids for dear life, there's really no reason to... so you wouldn't expect a branch of a highly sophisticated Scientific Innovation company from Earth to build a base there, would you? History: Well, they did, and it was to observe the comings-and-goings of Craftia - a planet that's captivated Earth since the dawn of man. Their facility here is Top Secret, and virtually undetectable, blending in perfectly with the asteroids and locking the rotation of the rock they built on so that the facility (somehow!) always faces Craftia. They're benevolent, though, and only wish to experiment with the planet's resources and atmosphere. Sometimes, though... the things they create somehow end up on the surface...

The Flux

Deity: you guessed it! The Flux Mother, aka "Fluxia" (pronounced: Flu-shia, like Fuchsia) Located: In a bubble that travels between Craftia and Twilight, and looks like a comet to Earth Size: About the size of the moon Description: Inside the hellbubble from space is a purple void of inky, gooey, sticky grossness. Fluxia likes to decorate it with things she corrupts from "the overworld", which is really just anywhere that isn't in her bubble or out in space. She is so corrosive and corruptive that despite her confines being held together by Two Gods, she still continues to seep outside of it and infect the two worlds belonging to the gods who created her; Kirin and Chimera. History: Fluxia was created during the Twi-Craft war, when the fighting became so personal and so extreme, that Kirin and Chimera ended up fighting each other directly. The magics from both the Gods, combining Heart and Soul with such rage and aggression, resulted in the poisonous sludge of the Flux Mother's birth. Her horrific nature is what ultimately ended the war, as the opposing sides were forced to come together to bring an end to her. Thankfully, MOST of her was forced into a pocket dimension located in space.

The End

Deity: The Ender Dragon Located: Beyond the known universe, aka,"The Sky" Size: Literally Endless Description: The Dragon, who has always held a fondness for existence, envies the universe for its ability to have physical things within it. She has amassed Endermen from the husked bodies of those who were willing to sacrifice themselves to her, who use her magic to teleport to anywhere they're allowed (...and sometimes where they're not) to take items and matter to the End. The floating void islands there are generated from these stolen goods, but as the years wear on, they corrupt into "purified", empty matter - becoming End Stone and Chorus plants and Purpur. History: The End used to be populated by followers of various races and species - those who heard her voice and were called to her End dimension, where they congregated and built tremendous End cities once they passed her test - defeating her (or more accurately, a creature of her creation, an effigy) in combat. However, over time, for an unknown reason... they "corrupted" into husks of their former selves, and the Dragon stopped ferrying her champions to the End Cities. It seemed as though she was sapping the mortals' life energy... but why? The cities became overgrown and filled with parasites - endermites and shulkers, barnacle-like creatures that thrive on purpur. Soon, the void was empty once again, and the Dragon no longer spoke to anyone in the universe, withdrawing her voice and presence in its entirety.
