User blog:Nelthro/Kaniros

Kaniros is a large continent, roughly the size of Tamriel. It is far to the south of where the games take place and different in most every way. For one thing, it is ruled single-handedly by one powerful deity known as Xavion. Xavion has created his own set of "rules" surrounding Kaniros, for one no Aedra, Daedra or Et'ada may enter Kaniros or affect it in any way, with the exception of Atronachs, unless they are limited to one very specific location.

The land is home to the Nemer, a tailed race believed to be of Mer origin, they have extremely sensitive yet barbed tails, and a set of fangs making them sometimes mistaken for being Vampires, furthermore the Nemer are extremely pale.

The land is also home to the Dochal, a six limbed reptilian species. Sometimes incorrectly referred to as dragons, they have four legs two wings and can produce Fire, Ice, Acid, Electricity and various gases from their mouths.

Finally the last sentient race are known as Gnomes, like the Dwemer they are highly advanced. Their inventions include but are not limited to Railroads, Gremades and Muskets. Though they are usually quite peaceful and pacifistic.

The Tamrielic and Akaviri races are also present in Kaniros, yet in far fewer numbers.

Among the many beasts to roam Kaniros are the [Insert big dog animal here] and the [insert big flightless bird here] which is often used as steeds, most other native races went extinct through continuous importing of intrusive species to combat other formerly introduced species.

The other native races are the sea dwelling monsters [insert Leviathan here] and [insert Kraken here]. There are also the avian creatures [insert Roc here], [insert Phoenix here] and [insert budgie here].

Kaniros is steeped in magical energies and power not seen anywhere else in Aurbis is present here, making it the ideal location for any Mage, or so one would think but in truth mages from Tamriel and Akavir, the magics present in Kaniros is often too much to handle and they are destroyed or transformed into murderous husks with nothing but hatred for their former kin.

Despite the presence of Tamrielic and Akaviri species, the land is steeped in mystery and either forgotten or lost to Tamriel, Thras, Akavir and Yokuda.
