The Continent Islands

They are called the Continent Islands because it was argued that the largest island on the chain, Arcor, is large enough to be a continent, while many others disagreed and called it an island because the other eight islands lining up behind it. So a compromise was reached and the chain was named the Continent Islands.

There are nine islands in the chain:

1. Bellua
2. Baratum
3. Roznova
4. Incaendium
5. Portentium
6. Carnific
7. Torto
8. Contrariet
9. Arcor

The islands increase in size from Bellua, the smallest, to Arcor. Each island has a special characteristic that renders it virtually uninhabitable.

1. Bellua
   The smallest island on the chain. Inhabited by monsters with no name. They are nameless because no one has been brave enough to navigate the island to study them.
2. Baratum
   Surrounded by a number of toxic gasses.
3. Roznova
   Every ten minutes, this island is surrounded by a large ring of fire, causing the water around the island to boil constantly. This is also the island on which the Mystery Miracle Worker is located.
4. Incaendium
   The gravitational pull is particularly stronger and everything is either bent towards the ground or is heavier than normal. Also, rain comes down hard enough to injure inhabitants and cause significant damage to other things.
5. Portentium
   The plants are predators that eat everything, including each other.
6. Carnific
   The water supply is acidic and one can sometimes see blood flowing in the rivers and streams.
7. Torto
   Has its own atmosphere and everything on the island is frozen, including the ocean around it inside the atmosphere.
8. Contrariet
   At night, all of the plant-life glows neon and eating any of it will cause one to go mad and attack anything and everything around him/her, until dawn breaks.
9. Arcor
   The largest island on the chain. Also the name of the single city that expands as big as the island, which also happens to be the largest city in the world. There is not law on Arcor. Also a common port for pirates.
