However, the aetherial disturbances at the start of the Seventh Umbral Era brought about a number of sudden changes to the climate in the few years since the Battle of Carteneau. Since then, the original rendering has been amended and improved by others, and the form it takes today is used by adventurers across the realm as an indispensable guide on their travels.įor the most part Eorzea's climate ranges from temperate in the north to sub-tropical in the south, with the southernmost part of Aldenard being a harsh desert. It was not until some 70 years ago, when an intrepid soul set out to wander the land, at great peril to himself, that the first map of Eorzea was completed. In this way, war spread throughout the realm, discouraging unity and peace.Īs a result, years passed without the lay of the land and its borders ever being mapped in their entirety.
The pantheon of the Twelve is followed devoutly by most, and doctrine holds that the past wars of the realm were the wars of the heavens, with the gods and goddesses laying their favor with nations to champion them. Throughout its history, the landscape has played home to a number of city-states-the tenuous relations among them fluctuating between friendly and hostile. The vast realm of Eorzea, comprising the continent of Aldenard and its outlying islands, has seen the rise of a civilization with peoples as diverse as its environs. With all the elements now represented, it was believed the current Astral era would last into eternity.
Each of the Umbral catastrophes has, in turn, borne the characteristics of one of the six elements. The First Umbral Era brought an end to the age of the gods, and there have been six such eras of calamity since the First Astral Era ushered in the age of man. In this harsh though vibrant region, the people of Eorzea have carved out their histories-a cycle of prosperous Astral and disastrous Umbral eras. Yet these inhospitable lands hold irresistible lure for man and monster alike, for wide and deep flow the currents of aether, and rich are the veins of power-infused crystal. Towering mountains dominate the north, their peaks forever lashed with icy winds to the south, a bleak expanse of unforgiving desert holds sway. There's a bit of a content draught, but I encourage any other longtime FF14 players to do something similar to welcome this staggering number of new players! Or just try to be a helpful soul, there's a lot of obscure things about the game that can be difficult for a sprout to figure out (ie dying, glamouring, UI configuration, etc.Comprised of Aldenard, the westernmost of the Three Great Continents, and its surrounding islands, the realm of Eorzea has been the cradle of several unique civilizations throughout history. I made about 40 baggies and passed them out over 3 days. Also a decent amount of gil for a noobie to help with teleport/repair fees and such. Goodie bags just had a checkered parasol (~1k gil), a minion (anywhere from 5k-50k), a random pick of hairstyle (Gyr Abanian Plait, I had a ton lying around), Non La, or a (random) chocobo barding, and a nice chocolate donated by a friend I met in PF. It put me in a good enough mood I decided to gather up some items I had lying about (and some purchased specifically for this) and try to hand them out to sprouts at the Waking Sands, since I figured at that point they would have some kind of investment. I noticed an influx of new players over the past week, mainly a ton more traffic to starter quest points in the cities and upon investigation, a ton of sprouts out killing MSQ mobs.
