Yonderverse Fun Facts!

Poking your nose where you shouldn't be? Or just happened to stumble across this article? Enjoy some weird and fun facts about the Yonderverse!


 
Apalians of Cilvarth set fires at funerals.

 

Apalians, followers of the religion of the same name, believe that fires are a way to communicate with the Gods, as the flames and smoke reach the high skies. Dead bodies at funerals are covered up with a tower of hay, and is set alight. They believe this gives a path for the body's soul to reach the afterlife and live with the Gods. Quite beautiful, if you ask me.


Planet Dave has 99 moons!

 

Dave, an Oceanic Planet in the AO5 System, is orbited by 99 moons. Each moon is home to different life forms - some giant, some tiny.

Dave has no solid core, instead seven Core Stones that roll around, keeping the planet as a perfect sphere.

The people of Amphibis can completely alter their anatomies in the blink of an eye.

 

The people that call Amphibis appear as a blend of toads, salamanders, and geckos. They have the ability to change the shape, size, and colour, of their scales, their physical shape, grow new legs and arms, split their bodies into two if they really like, all in a few seconds.


Stereotypical "Alien" by Mochi
The word "alien" is considered an insult in the Milky Way.

 

Never call someone from another planet an alien, as it's deemed a very rude insult. It suggests you have no respect for people of other planets, and that you look down on them.


Quemarans boil themselves alive!

 

As a last sign of strength and endurance, quemarans boil themselves alive in their last moments. This practice has only become more popular in recent years, with every small town and village having at least one end of life sauna.


You can have a zombie as a pet, on Zyphidis.

 

Zombies are a a common pet on Zyphidis, one of fifty moons orbiting planet Amphibis. You may have to sign your life away on a waiver when getting a pet zombie, but generally speaking it is one of the safer pets these people offer.

Sliced bread was once banned in the Milky Way.

  A drastic new ruling, 2,948 years ago, meant that sliced bread was banned in the Milky Way. Uproars led to this law being revoked just two days later.
