Lamis
Throughout the land of Solisternum, deposits of an energy rich material known as lamis-5, in its most recent form, exists. While concentrated deposits are the most well known, the material exists in every part of the land from the plants to the animals. No beast or vegetation can live without it. Deposits are often the home to many animals and diverse plant life, but with Vox cities built near or on top of these lamis rich areas, the creatures that call it home have been forced to move.
The People
The people of the Vox Nation reside in cities they built, using the natural power of lamis to power their Tech. Related, but not the same, the natural people of Solisternum have Lamis flowing through their bodies. They have learned through the cycles to hone this energy to power their Tech. The limits of this use and the stress it causes on the body forces the people to continue to extra lamis from deposits.
The Moons
Three moons shift through the sky above Solisternum. Even with different sizes and orbits, the moons intersect at the same place--in front of the sun. With an irregular orbit around the sun, Solisternum's sun appears to remain stagnant in the sky, allowing for the moons to eclipse the sun at the end of each sol. The sun only "sets" once a cycle, which plunges the land in complete darkness for ten sols.
Where the impossible happens
It takes 500 solpaes for the planet to orbit the sun, and with its irregular orbit, the planet remains facing the sun for all but 10 of these solpaes. With the help of dense cloud coverage and the moons' orbit, eclipsing the sun every sol, life flourishes across the surface.
Storms of the North
Sorbes are storms that descend from the Triones mountains. The storms follow concentrations of lamis, absorbing the lamis until no energy remains or until its capacity to hold the energy overloads, resulting in dissipation. Most storms dissipate within a sol unless it meets a city or deposit with ample lamis presence continue to fuel. Because of this, Sorbes rarely leave the base of the Triones mountains.
​
Sorbes are extremely dangerous to the natural persons of Solisternum. The storms don't sense a difference in either Lamis or lamis-5 forms of energy. When a Sorbe strikes a person, it leaves nothing, resulting in no survivors.
