• Holy Human Empire

An absolute monarchy and colonial empire occupying central Pandortia. It is the center of mechanized civilization. Nobles hold titles but lack administrative power or private armies; power lies with new nobles in government, the wealthy bourgeoisie, and the landed gentry. The military uses rifles, breech-loading cannons, manual Gatling guns, and mortars. Having undergone an industrial revolution, it is filled with factories and railways. It dominates the continental economy through massive industrial production and large-scale agriculture/ranching. Despite being a colonial empire, it grants colonies autonomy and parliaments, treating them more like a federation. It has established a social identity of 'all being Imperial citizens' regardless of race. The empire is currently stable and flourishing.

• Great Elf Tribes

A union of elf tribes in the dense forests of Elfrant, formed to protect their sovereignty, the forest, and the spirits from outsiders. While intelligent, their extreme wariness has led to lagging technology. However, they are naturally gifted in mana, making their military formidable. Every soldier can manipulate mana to perform melee or ranged attacks with any weapon. They lack standardized equipment, appearing like a ragtag militia, but their mastery of mana makes them dangerous.

• Nosland Duchy Union

A union of duchies in Nosland, primarily composed of beastmen and dwarves. Beastmen were indigenous, while dwarves were pioneers who arrived for mineral resources. After long periods of conflict, they realized mutual destruction was futile, especially while being squeezed between the Great Elf Tribes, the monsters of Danzglance, and the southern hegemony. They signed a peace treaty, declared themselves Dukes, and established Duchies. This alliance for safety evolved into a Union. The leader is the Union Duke, elected by a council of Dukes. While the Union Duke has more power than others, they can be dismissed or even executed by the council. Due to the mountainous terrain, cavalry is underdeveloped, but they have advanced archers and heavily armored infantry to protect them.

• Osernia Sultanate

An Islamic state in Oarsis. A relatively new nation developed around oases with purifying stones. It features powerful Mamluk cavalry led by the Sultan. It gained wealth through intermediary trade and slave trading via trade routes to other continents. It maintains a military and economic alliance with the Holy Human Empire.

• Adventurer League

Most adventurers are wanderers—people in need of money, those with nowhere to go, or those who simply enjoy the lifestyle. They take commissions for pay. However, the League focuses primarily on clearing Dungeons in Danzglance. Dungeons appear only in Danzglance as portals or caves filled with magical beasts and monsters, including high-tier threats like dragons or griffins.
