Etymology
History
The ancestors of the inhabitants of the modern Golden Domain arrived on sparkalia in the latter half of the 1300s. Hailing from the rogue planet of Mongo, they were sent off, but are now cut off from Mongo, as the planet drifted away. ...
Geography
The land of the golden domain is filled with warm places, made up mostly of rolling savannah, grassy hills and warm tall hills with small paths along them, and festering swamps. The plains are generally fairly plain, as far as Dominion geography goes. At least as common as trees are in the plains are massive radium crystals, often standing over a story high. The environment is fully capable of dealing with the radiation, since everything that wasn't long since died painfully. The plains are sometimes broken up by gentler hills covered in grass, but the steeper hills are not found in the plains, but rather are counted as their own place. It is common for people to live in and within the hills. The least habitable of the climates are the Glowing swamps. Like the previous climates, they are warm and filled with radiation, but the swamps have many other dangers within them, such as lightning sand, spurts of flame from the ground, and many hostile creatures, such as ROUSs.
Demographics
The races from Mongo are made up of various humanoid aberrations. While they might seem, and in some ways are, similar to normal races, they have critical differences. The planet mongo is highly radioactive, with its surface being littered with various resources, such as radium. Not only do the Mongon races have no issue surviving this, but they require the radiation to survive. Time spent without it gradually weakens them, until they finally die. Lion and Hawk men can generally go a month without any radiation, while some Golden Men have been recorded having survived over a year, but their weakened state means that in practice it causes their death even faster than the theoretical limit. This replaces their need to eat at all, though they are still required to drink.
However, the survivors of the radioactive scouring, that being the Pythian natives, are different in this regard. While they still require radiation to survive, it is rather that their bodies are so twisted that it is all that keeps them alive. They still must drink and eat, as they had to before. They generally die within a little over a day in the case of the beast folk(a week for the dwarves) of lacking radiation. Unlike the Mongon races, they do not simply weaken, but rather their bodies begin to fall apart around that point, resulting in their imminent and gruesome deaths.
