World

Home / Places / World

Citizens of Torch City don't have a name for their planet. They just call it the world. The world is small, roughly the size of a regular moon and covered in quicksands. There are few rivers, few mountains and not that many significant landmarks except the remaining ruins.

The Night Sky
There are no moons, and the sun darkened when The Blackout happened. The only specks of light in the perpetual night sky are tiny stars too far away to do anyone any good.

Climate
The world never had anything similar to seasons. The weather is limited to constant temperatures and humidity, rare bouts of rain and the occasional thunderstorm. When the sun went out, everything, strangely, kept on going just like before. The temperatures never went down, the rain never stopped pouring. It was just the plants that began to die, except for a few resilient species, and the animals that started behaving strangely. And, of course, the disastrous, desperate, warmongering reaction of man.
