A World Battered by Storms and Ancient Magic
Imagine a world where hurricane-force tempests rage across the land every few days, where plants retract into shells like frightened animals, and where glowing gemstones powered by these storms fuel both warfare and everyday life. Welcome to Roshar, a realm shaped by these highstorms and the mysterious energy they carry called Stormlight. This is no ordinary fantasy landscape - rockbuds curl up when touched, massive crustacean-like chasmfiends roam the plains, and cities are carved into mountainsides or built with sloping architecture to withstand the relentless winds. Society itself reflects this harsh environment. Eye color determines your fate - lighteyes rule as nobility while darkeyes serve as commoners. Docile humanoids called parshmen are used as servants across the continent, while their warlike cousins, the Parshendi, have become enemies of the Alethi kingdom. Legends speak of the Knights Radiant, warriors with magical abilities who mysteriously abandoned humanity centuries ago, leaving behind their powerful Shardblades and Shardplate - magical weapons and armor now coveted as symbols of power. What makes this world so compelling isn't just its strangeness, but how thoroughly the harsh environment has shaped every aspect of civilization - from architecture to social hierarchies to the very way people think about survival.
