World of Divided Continents Q&A
Volume 1
1. Does Bastion have the same surface area as Earth?
No, Bastion is way bigger, more like having the surface area of Saturn, which is 83 times larger in surface area than Earth. (Note: Surface area is the total measure of the outer layer.)
Fun fact: like Saturn, Bastion has rings where the 8 artificial moons, made by the mechanic for Unlighted, orbit. The 8 moons change which ring they follow in each cycle. There are so many rings that the 8 moons can randomly follow that it indeed looks like Saturn's rings.
2. Are Bastion's Humans exactly like us?
Yes, in terms of being humanoid and having no horns or tusks. But in general, no. Humans of Bastion are massive, bulked beings, but whose bodies are slightly smaller compared to dwarves and dynamen.
The force that their muscles have when attacking is very different from ours. They are very strong and very smart. Although in terms of sickness, there are also those born with good resistance and those born that are sickly.
3. What do Templars' physical ages look like?
Templars stop aging, except in their hair and skin, and maintain the physical appearance of a 25- to 35-year-old person at the age of 25. Some have the final appearance of a 35-year-old, while others have the appearance of a 25-year-old. It just happens, and no one can yet explain why these cases happen. But they retain their strength and power, only their hair and skin grow old.
4. What do Vampire's physical age look like?
Vampires, on the other hand, experience a plateau in their appearance at 25, where they look exactly like they are in their mid-20s, until about age 1000. That is why they are the proudest race among the major races because of their similarities to the Templars. Upon reaching 1,000 years, their appearance subtly shifts, and they begin to look in their 30s. By 1,500 years, they look middle-aged (late 40s to early 50s). At approximately 1,800 years old, their hair and skin still look middle-aged, but their bodies become noticeably weaker and more fragile.
