Landmarks
It's only natural that not every single corner of a land adhere to its description, especially in a place as wild and varied as the Rift. There's hidden nooks and crannies, clusters of trees, old ritual sites, bubbling brooks and raging rivers... As the characters, newcomers and natives alike, spread through the Rift, these will be discovered - by you!
A landmark is essentially a small, particular area of a land, discovered via posting, and, entirely designed by the player/s involved in discovering it. A landmark ought to have something distinguishing it from the rest of its locale; for example, just 'any other glade' in Solanis isn't particularly exciting, but what about a glade with a hill of bones in it? Or a glade with a breathtaking, sparkling pond, full of vibrant fish and flowers? Or perhaps a glade where something rather historic happened, and left traces - perhaps blood stains magically seared into the earth?
Discovery
- Post to the Landmark Submission thread with your landmark idea
- Admin will respond and either a, approve it or b, ask for modifications
- Once approved, go ahead and discover it!
- In order to properly discover a landmark, you need a total of two different, completed (by RF earning standards) threads at the location. A total of three different characters - including your own - must have visited the landmark in these two threads.
- We use pre-approval so you do not go through the process of discovering a landmark only to find that it is inappropriate for its location.

Mangrove Tidepools
Scint Scar: Once, a mossy valley was folded in between the Rainforest Cliffs and Mangrove Tidepools, and the continent had looked a little different when it accomodated this. Now all that remains of the land where the spectral river ran is a narrow, gently rolling swath of grassy landscape, looking decidedly out of place as it sits on the border between south and east. Snaking through the middle of it is a thin, black scar, no more than inch wide. It seeps and shimmers and crawls and sings, and while touching it seems to cause no harm, many find a chill traveling down their spines as they touch the void.
