Felarya is a world saturated with magic. It radiates from everywhere and even the soil of Felarya is magic itself. Mages arriving for the first time in Felarya can experience a serious shock at how little efforts it takes from their parts to tap into it and cast spells. Even technologically advanced groups such as Vishmitals can't ignore magic. They have to compose with it, study it, and sometimes even harness it. In Felarya, Science and magic are intricately related, and some argue they are actually the same, merely a different approach on how to explain, understand and use the strange phenomenons and traits of Felarya.

Magic
Efforts to characterize magic in Felarya are often difficult, due to the fact that many people from a variety of worlds have their own ways of drawing upon this force.

Constructs
A construct is either a magically animated object or and artificially constructed creature. They are rare and very expensive, as the enchantments to animate them are generally very complex. They are used for dangerous, difficult tasks, or as guardians.
Science
Physics
The physical nature of Felarya, its origins, are a highly controversial topic, subject to much debating and heated discussions among mages and scientists alike. Phony theories and far-fetched speculations are rife.
Mineralogy
Felarya possesses a wide variety of metals, stones, or gems found only there. The unstability of this world and the strange physical phenomena that occur there sometimes grant these materials very strange and unique properties.
Equipment
to change
One of the main reasons why a steady flow of adventurers keep coming to Felarya is the richness, fabulous treasures, and powerful ancient artefacts that are scattered all over the world. Many of them came from previous unlucky adventurers though...
