OOC: Want to get a story overview what has happened so far, then check this http://www.finalfantasyforums.net/t...e-fall-of-the-mages-story-overview-33041.html
The story takes place 100 years after the events of Final Fantasy IX. The beautiful and quite peaceful world from before is on the edge of extinction. The population of Gaia has grown dozen of times. The towns and villages from before have grown in to big cities, full of thieves, mercenaries and beggars. The former cities now are the true capitals of the world, holding more humans in them than Gaia total population once had been. But that all brings Gaia closer to its inglorious end.
As the cities grew, the new empires were formed and the old ones got stronger. New aggressive empires unfolded a great row of wars, which showed the fearless civilization of Mist Continent, that the life isn't as easy as it seems at first. Then, after 40 years of deadly wars, everything calmed down for a decent or two, but now, the Great Empire Of Oeilvert, the empire of assassins, thieves, murderers and selfish rulers, started the war by attacking Daguerro towns in Forbidden Continent. Oeilvert is getting ready for war against Daguerro and when they once attack, no-one is safe from their ambitions.
Once, a war with that size would harm the cities and city life, but now, when the technology is quickly surpassing the power of magic, the world is slowly moving towards a total war, which means a total chaos. The technology and bombs now are able to blow up whole cities, what once was nearly impossible by magic.
Tho, everything has a brighter side. The advancement of technology and magic using, has made the cities the true centers of culture and education. The new towns and cities, new buildings and castles, all are as glorious and beautiful as one could imagine. The life everywhere besides Oeilvert is shining. Never before has the world of Gaia been so varied as it is now. But the sad fact is, once the Oeilvert comes with its destruction and death-spreading, this slowly grown up life will end and will be replaced with chaos and fear by the way, it now is in Oeilvert.

The Old Town of Lindblum now known as the Noble Castle-
1st district- Lindblum Grand Castle( which once was the biggest castle. Now it is easily compared to all other castles of big empires). It's the same old castle of Lindblum.

Also a bridge from Castle moves to Airship factory which now has improved a lot. It's more than 5 times bigger than before and now has 14 airship docks inside it for developing new airships.

The Tantalus Entertainment Group area also contains the biggest chocobo racing area in Lindblum 1st sector. This racing arena is very popular among the citizens of Lindblum and so has races twice every day. The races are free, but the Tantalus Group earns hundred of thousands with betting function.

This area only has one theater, the Theater of Royal, which has plays once every day. It's the busiest of the Theaters and visited by many famous people. Tho it has a limitation, it's only for nobles, and because of that, it pays a lot. Around 4 000 gold coins one play, but you can buy a monthly ticket for it, which pays only around 20 000 gold coins and so you can save up to 40 000 gold coins.
Lastly, the Free Theater area- The lower class actors and writers live there. Also it contains great amount of shops and inns. It has a great market , where the lower citizens trade and buy items and food. Also it contains three theaters and one chocobo racing stadium ( a small one tho). The Theaters are small and cheap, but that doesn't mean that they are bad. They have some really talented actors there.
Besides the three areas, The Theater District has a main square, where you can enter Air cabin station. The main square is pretty busy all the time and all the buildings around it are filled with shops and inns. Only a few are rich enough to buy a house to that square.
3rd District- The Business district.
After the theater district, there is a business district, the home of all trading, entertainment and life. It now holds both, the old industrial district and the old business district together with many residence areas. It contains thousands and thousands of living houses, but still, the number of shops, markets and inns are near the number of the living houses. The most famous areas are the Central Square of Lindblum. This the greatest square in whole Lindblum, called '' The Great Market Square'' having a radius around 1 mile. The great cathedral of Lady Eiko lies in the northern side of the square. The square itself is filled with different shops and and circuses. In middle of the square, there is a big stage, for free theatre and other activities. Also a band of Tantalus group plays there most of the time.

Besides that, the Business District contains the biggest Lindblum arena, The Grand Colosseum of Lindblum. It has fights more than twice in a day and is the famous spot all over the world. Many legendary fighters live there and earn money there.
There is one big chocobo racing arena in Business District too, which is as big as the Tantalus one, but is more favored by middle class citizens than the nobles.
After the Noble Castle, there comes 2nd sector.
The second sector is built against the Noble Castle. It is a diagonal sector, which contains mostly living areas. It is also known as the Residence sector. It contains three districts:
Residence district- This is the place, where around 60% of middle class live and some nobles live there too, who aren't as rich as other nobles. It contains few theaters and dozens of shops and inns. Despite of its size and population, it lacks anything else than living houses.
Market district- This is half of the size of residence district and contains mostly inns, shops and living houses. It has around 3 theaters and 1 chocobo racing arena. It's pretty active and the buildings are big and beautiful, but not as beautiful and great as Noble Castle ones.
Industry district- This District contains the biggest building of Lindblum, the Great Airship Factory. It has more than 70 airship docks and dozens of weapon shops and army houses inside it. Besides the Great Airship Factory, this district contains a lot of bars and few inns. It contains the workers houses mostly. The other big building is the Weapon Factory, where around 500 smiths work and make equipment for soldiers. These weapons and armors are sold everywhere around the world. Despite the big buildings, it is one of the dirtiest districts.
3rd sector a.k.a The Outer sector. This sector contains three areas and contains the areas from 2nd sector to Pinaccle Rocks.
The area is the public sector, divided in to three districts:
1st- The Residence district- This is where the most of the lower class and many medium class citizens live. It contains big markets, inns and bars, as well three gladiator arenas and 2 chocobo racing arenas. This is pretty active city part too. It has the three great Airship stations, which each contain 50 airship docks. The airship stations contain dozens of restaurants, inns, shops and travel agencies. All traveling to Lindblum, besides the royal ships, land there. Because of that, the main street to Noble Castle is always filled with the travelers.
2nd is the big Industry district- Most of the workers live here and some poorer citizens too. It has few inns and shops, but contains around hundred bars, because of the workers. It has one low chocobo racing arena and one theater for the higher workers. This area contains a airship factory, weapon factory, dozens of small factories and a big mine, where Lindblum gets 50% of his iron.
3rd is the area of low citizens and poor people, called ''Slums''. 50% of it people aren't citizen. This area contains many markets and dirty job houses. It has more than 50 bars and few inns. It's not likely, that a noble will find his way to here. Tho, many workers live here, as there is a big mine, where Lindblum gets around 25% of the iron he needs and 70 % of coal they need. Slum isn't beautiful place, but if you don't have any other place to live, you will find a home to here even for 30 gold coins.

The city of Dali -
Population: ~ 10 000
Major: Lord Marcus Befocia II ( Age: 41)
The City of Dali is known as one of the biggest entertainment and vacation towns. The city is probably closest to the nature of all big cities. The amount of trees, parks, farms and ponds make it a popular place to relax in. But the true source of Dali's popularity is Chocobo Racing arena's. The city itself has 3 areas.
1st is the Center City where lays the Royal Mansion of Dali. The center city also contains Dali Air Dock which can hold up to 15 airships. There are dozens of shops, inns, bars, restaurants, schools, libraries and other things like that. But the Center City is probably most known due to the Royal Academy of Chocobo.

Also, next to the Royal Mansion of Dali is the Cathedral of Black Mages, to remind the past of the city.
2nd is the Tourist City. It has three biggest Chocobo Racing arena's in the world. The Stadium of Choco Rocko is the biggest and most known of them. Only the nobles and rich are able to visit it due to the high ticket prices. The Stadium of Choco Mocko is the second in size and first in popularity as the ticket prices are a lot cheaper there. The third is the Olympic Stadium, the first chocobo racing arena in Dali ever. It's a historical landmark, yet there are still races once a month. Besides the chocobo racing arenas, there are many civilian buildings in the area and also one fighting arena, called The Arena of Black Mages. It's a famous arena due to the fact that only mages fight in there.
3rd part is the Outern City. It is the part of Dali that has tons of parks, farms and things like that. Also, the biggest Chocobo Breeding Companies work there. Dali farms also produce 80% of the food that Alexandria needs. Outern City also has many smaller Chocobo racing arenas and chocobos are the methods of transport in the streets of Outern City.

It has one low chocobo racing arena and one theater for the higher workers. This area contains a airship factory, weapon factory, dozens of small factories and a big mine, where Lindblum gets 50% of his iron.
3rd is the area of low citizens and poor people, called ''Slums''. 50% of it people aren't citizen. This area contains many markets and dirty job houses. It has more than 50 bars and few inns. It's not likely, that a noble will find his way to here. Tho, many workers live here, as there is a big mine, where Lindblum gets around 25% of the iron he needs and 70 % of coal they need. Slum isn't beautiful place, but if you don't have any other place to live, you will find a home to here even for 30 gold coins.

It is a castle like building and contains 45 airship docks. It is beautifully built and has dozens of shops, inns and restaurants in it. All the airships coming to Alexandria normally land here, so it contains many travel agencies and is pretty populated all the time. It also has two theaters in it. 1st is the Noble theater, which is a bit bigger and more expensive than the other theater, Public Theater.
Besides the great docks, which also can be seen almost everywhere around the town, there is a great cathedral of Garnet Til Alexandros. It's the place, where most of the humans go to pray every morning and remind Queen Garnet. Zidane let it built after the death of Garnet. It lies in the Great market square, as big as the one in Lindblum, but it is more elegant and has more noble and good-willed people trading there. The biggest theater is the Theater of Tantalus. It's in the border of this territory and the residence territory. It is as huge as Zidane Theater in Lindblum, but it also is able to board Theater ships and has a special stage for acts from theater ships. It has plays three times in a week and everyone who can afford to watch the plays, goes to watch them at least twice in a month.

All the streets lead to the main square, where the cathedral of Garnet is.
3rd territory is The Residence region. It contains as much as inns, shops, bars, restaurants and theaters as the Market district, but it is further away from the airship docks, so it mostly has the citizens hanging around there. It also contains the old castle, which now is the residence of the major and princes and princesses all around the world. The biggest building besides the castle in there, is the Arena Of Alexandria. The only fighting arena in Alexandria. It is pretty popular and nobles from Treno always hang around there.

Besides the houses and the tower, this area holds the castle of Burcmeria, which is huge in terms of territory, but isn't anything in terms of height. It is one noble and fine castle.

Minister: Rick Pure VII
Daguerro is one of the three centers of knowledge, together with Clerya and Madain Sari. The city contains people from everywhere around the world and is really well built. Unfortunately it's not good to survive wars, as it is built as a culture center, not as a war center. The town is divided in to four sectors.
1st sector: The Holy Cave.
It's the home of the rich and well-educated people. The cave contains thousands of homes and dozens of schools and shops and libraries. It's really well decorated and is connected with different caves. The most populated place is the Heart of Daguerro. It's a huge hall inside the cave, filled with different shops, markets and inns. It can hold thousand people in it same time, so it is really huge. Also, the statue of Richard is there, in the middle of the square. The main transport vechiles are underground trains, like the ones in Lindblum Dragon Gate.
2nd sector: Upper city
It's the home of merchants, traders and thieves. It contains dozens of shops, markets, inns, hotels and other places like that. It also contains hundreds of houses. The biggest building is the Royal Airdock, where all the ships heading towards Daguerro stop. It is as huge as the dock of Lindblum and well crafted. It also holds 10 warships all the time, ready for any conflict. The second building in size is Theatre of Royale. It's as famous as is Zidane Tribal theatre in Lindblum and it holds many plays each day. The main square is right next to it and is called the Square of Leviathan.

The city of Dali -
Population: ~ 10 000
Major: Lord Marcus Befocia II ( Age: 41)
The City of Dali is known as one of the biggest entertainment and vacation towns. The city is probably closest to the nature of all big cities. The amount of trees, parks, farms and ponds make it a popular place to relax in. But the true source of Dali's popularity is Chocobo Racing arena's. The city itself has 3 areas.
1st is the Center City where lays the Royal Mansion of Dali. The center city also contains Dali Air Dock which can hold up to 15 airships. There are dozens of shops, inns, bars, restaurants, schools, libraries and other things like that. But the Center City is probably most known due to the Royal Academy of Chocobo. It's the world only school that teaches how to breed and hw to ride chocobos and most of it's graduates get work as chocobo breeders or racers. Also, next to the Royal Mansion of Dali is the Cathedral of Black Mages, to remind the past of the city.
2nd is the Tourist City. It has three biggest Chocobo Racing arena's in the world. The Stadium of Choco Rocko is the biggest and most known of them. Only the nobles and rich are able to visit it due to the high ticket prices. The Stadium of Choco Mocko is the second in size and first in popularity as the ticket prices are a lot cheaper there. The third is the Olympic Stadium, the first chocobo racing arena in Dali ever. It's a historical landmark, yet there are still races once a month. Besides the chocobo racing arenas, there are many civilian buildings in the area and also one fighting arena, called The Arena of Black Mages. It's a famous arena due to the fact that only mages fight in there.
3rd part is the Outern City. It is the part of Dali that has tons of parks, farms and things like that. Also, the biggest Chocobo Breeding Companies work there. Dali farms also produce 80% of the food that Alexandria needs. Outern City also has many smaller Chocobo racing arenas and chocobos are the methods of transport in the streets of Outern City.
