Welcome to Loonia!
-----North Loonia-----
Frostbreath Tundra:
- A harsh mountainous range at the farthest North of Loonia. An almost treeless region where the climate is cold and windy nearly all year long. Summer brings a burst of wildflowers to the region.
- It is from the Frost Mountains, during the winter months, that the coldest winds blow and the fiercest snowstorms threaten Loonia. However, if you are lucky and brave the cold you may catch a glimpse of the Aurora Eels that dance in the sky at night. Their brilliant glowing bodies have lit the way home for many travelers. (I'm thinking they look a bit like eels, they glow and are many different colors)
-Frozenquin can be found here.
Howling Isles:
- A small set of islands off the west coast of the Frostbreath Tundra. While there are some mountain ranges, the islands tend to be heavily covered in ice due to the coastal winds.
-Frozenquin can be found here.
-----East Loonia-----
The Rundar RainForest (Emerald RainForest)
- The great Rainforest is a tall, densely packed jungle. The forest is very hot and humid, yet seems to be ideal for many animals and Evoloons. The heavy rainfall makes the canopies and nearby mountains the prime location for homes.
- Tropical style forest: large-leafed plants, ferns, large brightly colored flowers, tall canopy style trees.
- Rundar was a pack of skilled warrior loons that once lived in this forest. They were ruthless when it came to protecting their own and often welcomed any loon who came in peace looking for safety and family. At the pack's height a new Loon, named Ro, joined the pack and quickly came to power with his words of persuasion and his fighting skill. Ro believed that all loons should be under the rule of the Rundar pack, and looked to expanding the pack's borders beyond the forest. This, however, was against the beliefs of the pack's Elders (the previous leaders of the pack), they believed that their pack should be a safe haven for anyone who needed it, but not a ruling force. The pack split between the those who followed Ro and those who followed the elders, a great upheaval sent them into war with each other and the surrounding packs. They fought for months, many loons lost their lives, then one day they disappeared. The entire pack, their homes, any proof of their existence was gone from the forest. Some say the tribe, no longer able to live together, split up, left the forest, and joined other packs, others say they warred until there was no one left. Most believe that the elders got ride of Ro and his followers and moved the remaining pack deeper into the forest, hurt and betrayed, they no longer accept other loon's into the pack. Instead they live in secret somewhere the forest.
- Abandoned structures can be found resting on the branches of the tall trees.

Bird-nest Bluffs:
- Bird-nest Bluffs is a secluded island off the coast of the Emerald Rainforest.

Mecha Island (Cyber Scrap Yard)
- This island has a rough landscape, metallic rocks jut from the ground, some are straight others are at odd angles - similar to basalt columns.

-When the island was initially found, there were already strange tools and objects of some ancient civilization it, which lead to the aid and rise of Cyber Evoloons as we know them.

Pool of Stars:

The drop off of the cove is about a mile off the beach, this is where the larger aquatic creatures lurk. Here the ocean floor is littered with sunken ships and treasures, in fact, it is rumored that this is the final resting place of Captain Fishfang's pirate ship - hence the cove's name.

EXTRA:
The Canyon of Stars:
- The Canyon of the Stars stretches from within the Sparkle Mountains, around the far side of the Starfruit forest and ends at the Evermist Lagoon. Legend states that the canyon once flowed with magical goo. Today the canyon is barren, however at night, when its walls are caught in the moonlight, the rocks sparkle from the remains of the magic, making it look like the Canyon is filled with stars - hence the canyon's name. (the same effect happens during the day in the sunlight, however, the sparkles are harder to see, the effect is more powerful at night.)
Evoloon Origins:
- Within the Spark Mountains there is a massive crystal known as the Catalyst. Surrounding the Catalyst is a moat of magical goo that is constantly changing colors. The magic of the Catalyst and the surrounding goo creates the various Evoloon eggs. Garan is charged with gathering and cleaning the eggs and transporting them to the Nest and other pack/families/loons/ random locations throughout loonia.
