THE UNIVERSE
The Starburst
An explosion of energy and matter, dispersing itself into the universe. It'd be a very small region, perhaps city-sized, if it was dense enough to be colorful and obviously coherent.
The Sandstorm
A tornado of somewhat compacted sand, strong enough to wear away anything that comes into contact with it. Small region.
The Earthcloud
Cloud of mildly condensed dust the size of a medium region. Studded with fist-sized lumps of mithril ore.
The Pocket
A sphere the size of a medium region, with a massive spire of adamatine running through the middle, emerging to tapered points on each end. The sphere itself is an unyielding barrier against outside forces, but prone to chipping as it resists said forces. There's occasional pockets of very faintly visible, bright red dust on certain parts.
A handful of very small boulders floats around inside.
Several boxlike machines work frantically to mine out the adamantium spire. They are decently fast at it, but wearing themselves out from excessive speed.
Several delicate self-maintaining diamond mining machines work swiftly to mine out the adamantium spire.
Several boxlike factories process the adamantium into spaceships. They are very slow at it.
Several of the adamantium figures are alive, possessed by the same central mind. It is arrogant and cunning, and capable of animating more statues with itself. It intends to conquer the universe, eventually.
The Demidome
A small region, large enough for a quaint village and its surroundings, surrounded by a transparent demidome of force.
A smaller, less stable region bulges off from one side. It seems to be slowly growing, and perhaps changing.
Floating haphazardly above the bottom is a thick, somewhat cracked disc of earth and stone. Its surface is straight out of a madman's nightmares, featuring impossibly and extreme terrain.
The surface is covered in myriad plant life, generally as bizarre as the lands it grows on.
Various gases mill about inside.
The region is home to several primitive, bizarrely-shaped elementals of various substances.
The region is inhabited by a handful of primitive microscopic life forms.

The region is inhabited by fairly simple, but still strange, animals of various sorts.
The Sphere
A sphere of water the size of a medium region, constantly spinning and flowing. It is covered by a very thin, mostly useless membrane.
The Star orbits around it. The Superstar also orbits it, but in an ellipse.
Five 200-meter long void sharks serve as guardians to the sphere. They eat sunlight, intruders, and anything they please.
A handful of scraggly, stringy, plant-like things can be found within. A handful of slightly sticky algae-like things also call it home.
The Star
A ball of glaring, sickly light the size of a village. It orbits erratically around The Sphere.
The Superstar
A massive ball of fire, the size of a very large region; big enough for a metropolis and its surroundings. It elliptically orbits The Sphere.
The Cloud
A very large cloud of darkness, studded with flickering, ever-changing lights of all colors and streaked with crackling lightning of the same. It is the Dream World, or arguably the entrance to the Dream World, and deities other than Tyr'Vannen have more difficulty affecting it than normal.
The center is slightly more stable than the outer regions.
Lightning entities inhabit it. They are wise and thoughtful, concerned with proper law and deep thought. They claim lordship over the mad fey-like humanoids, but it's largely a symbolic gesture, having little actual sway over them.
Laughing, mad, fey-like humanoids inhabit it, deeply tied to its very essence.
Both the dream and lightning entities wield fearsome weapons made out of the very substance of The Cloud, and many of both are sealed within mechanical spheres of all manner of materials.
The Hivemind has a well-established foothold here, but has been largely pushed back. Portions of it have even been severed.
The Crag
A spike of earth and stone, larger than a mountain, surrounded by a ring of flat, rocky terrain populated by very occasional, stunted weeds. The mountain's craggy sides are utterly uninhabitable to anything that can't climb very, very well, and there's no flat ground anywhere, even at the top. The flat part, while spread around the cliffs, is the size of a medium region; large enough for a town and its environs.
Surrounding the scrubland is a medium region of tree-friendly soil.
Surrounding the medium region of tree-friendly soil is a medium region of craggy earth and stone.
A grand stone teleporter pad sits atop the Crag, surrounded by imposing, inspiring statues to Thrakor. Those faithful to him may use it to reach the temple that floats above.
A grand temple to Thrakor floats menacingly above the the crag, containing the Throne of Command and prayer halls. Thrakor himself dwells within when not needed elsewhere. Throngs of worshipers empower Thrakor with their worship inside. Several statues dedicated to Thrakor decorate portions of the cliff face.
Within the grand temple to Thrakor sits the Throne of Command. This terrifying artifact, when successfully used against another creature, utterly shatters its will, reducing it to a shambling zombie that must be ordered to eat and sleep.
Tentacled Things
Clinging to the sides of The Crag and hiding in crevices on the scrubland around it, these slithering creatures are black tentacled blobs with a handful of glaring eyes. They are fanatically loyal to Thrakor, and currently in a frenzy of worship and statue-carving. Their stamina is legendary, rendering them all but tireless. They're negligibly more aware than they were.
They occasionally have disturbing dreams about monocle-wearing, fluorescent sheep, but they're not all that concerned about it.
Mini-Humans
Tiny, human-shaped bugs scurrying across the surface of Mini-Earth. They're organized into a hivemind, and have lost several members to what they consider a giant turtle.
[Turtle] The Mini-Fiery Hell
A fiery, cracked red sphere. It can be held between two hands. It can also apparently be bounced on a turtle's nose.
[Azundan] The Mini-Earth
A blue and green sphere. Azundan could stand in it comfortably were it hollow.
[Derm] The Turtle
An ordinary, basketball-sized turtle. It thinks mini-humans are delicious morsels and is a surprisingly capable combatant. Currently in Derm's arms, playing with the hellball.
[Toaster] The Prophet
A towering colossus of glowing energy. It brings swift justice to all who do not bow before Thrakor's command. It is currently deeply fused with Mobkogoth. It wields a grand claymore that glows with golden light.
