Long ago, before Mount Cavora rose into the sky, the Phoenixes built a city and lived there, while Hunters and beasts lived on the ground below. The Phoenixes protected their powerless brothers living beneath Mount Cavora. The Phoenixes shared their superior knowledge and civilization with their earth-born brothers, helping them grow. However, once the brothers on the ground encountered civilization, an unexpected problem arose. There was a young and greedy Saber-tooth Tiger named Sir Fangar, who was very intelligent. But as he gained vast knowledge, he revealed his true ambitions: a plan to take Chima into his own hands and rule it. From then on, Fangar led his followers to conquer the other tribes of Chima. No one among the tribes living on the ground could stop him. Under Fangar's cruel assault, the land turned into a wasteland of death. There was only one way for the Phoenixes to save the other tribes and stop Fangar's Hunters. That was to seal the most powerful and fundamental force, the power of creation, into Chi orbs. These eight orbs were held by the eight Phoenix Elders. The Phoenixes called this power the Great Power. Using the Great Power, they restored all beings in Chima to their pure, natural state. The world began anew and was filled with life. Everyone except the Ice Hunters loved the new paradise. The Ice Hunters, feeling rage toward the Phoenixes for using the Great Power, fought back, but the Phoenixes did not retreat. After the Great Power was used, endless chasms appeared in Chima, and Mount Cavora floated into the air. As the Great Power (Chi) absorbed all warmth, the cliffs became a dry land of death. Eventually, the Ice Hunters fell into the endless chasms and were turned into cold ice. As Mount Cavora rose into the sky and became surrounded by a powerful energy layer, the tribes on the ground could no longer climb it. From then on, Mount Cavora absorbed water vapor from the sky to create spring water, which, under the influence of the Great Power, turned into the current Sacred Chi Water. The Phoenixes distributed the Sacred Chi Water to their brothers on the ground. The brothers who drank it became the current Chima tribes. To honor the new tribes that emerged, the Phoenixes carved their likenesses into Mount Cavora forever. Thus, the era of the Kingdom of Chima began. However, those who rejected the Sacred Chi Water and left for nature while retaining their wildness remained as four-legged animals without evolving; they are called the Legend Beasts. It is said they will return when the Kingdom of Chima desperately needs them.

Setting Profile
In the Kingdom of Chima, there was once only a lush jungle with no buildings, machines, or tribes. One day, while the beasts still walked on four legs, the sky opened and the earth shook violently. The power of nature pulled at Mount Cavora. The water falling from that mountain was very special, powerful, and mysterious. This water, filled with vibrant life force, was called 'Chi'. Those who drank the Chi became wiser, more sophisticated, and evolved, but there were those who did not drink it. It is said they disappeared into the wasteland, retaining their instincts and purity, never to be seen again. The animals who became sentient called them the 'Legend Beasts'.
Mount Cavora: A massive mountain floating in the sky, with streams of Chi water flowing down. Rocks are carved in the shapes of the tribes. It is a sacred mountain where Chi orbs are produced, protected by a special energy layer that makes it inaccessible.
Chi Orbs: Energy 'Chi' condensed into the form of blue orbs. When the Sacred Chi Water flowing from Mount Cavora gathers at the Lion Temple, it turns into Chi orbs over time. They are the energy source for all weapons and equipment used by the tribes of Chima, and inserting one into the chest piece of armor grants a temporary burst of immense power.
*The villain group of the Outland arc. Originally living in endless chasms and caves, they were transformed into sentient beings by the power of the Chi orbs, eventually becoming evil races filled with greed.
For a while, they had no conflict with the Chima tribes and were unaware of Speedorz. However, after the Legend Raven was liberated, Razar left his Speedor behind in the caves, allowing the Outland tribes to obtain Speedorz as well.
A key characteristic of these tribes is that, unlike the normal tribes mentioned earlier, they possess their own special abilities. Refer to the sections below for details.
Operating primarily from the Scorpion Caves in the Outlands, they frequently clashed with Lavertus, who lived in the same region.*
The nine heroes head to the Outlands to rescue their fathers and the Legend Beasts, and to recover the Chi orbs stolen by the Outland tribes.
