Appleloosa is a typical Wild West town, complete with the typical buildings: a dance location, a saloon and a sheriff house. The town also has an Apple Orchard, where the townsponies harvest apples for their daily needs. The desert surrounding the town was originally a stampeding ground owned by the Buffalo. Before the town was built, the Buffalo used to stampede in the area, which lead to the conflict between the ponies in Appleloosa and the Buffalo, who wanted their land back.
In the end, the Buffalo and the settler ponies reached an agreement. In which the Buffalo agreed to limit their stampeding to a small path running through the orchard, and in return for using their land, the townsponies had to provide them with apple pies.

This the majestic castle-city of Canterlot. It is home to the proud princesses of Equestria and the most famous Mages Circle, as well as Celestia's Magic School. The city itself is built unto the mountainside, overlooking the great valley of Equestria, accessible to all ponies by flight or transport. The town contains a military recruiting post, as well as shops with a wide selection of items and some of the fanciest gardens and banquet halls this side of Equestria.

Currently, Canterlot is in the process of rebuilding following the attack by Blackmane's fleet. With city mostly destroyed, it will be a long time till it is once more back to its prior glory.

Cloud Routes are the sky-ways of Equestria, long quiet stretches of air above the clouds where any flying creature passes on their way from place to place through the air. Be careful! There are flying creatures abound in Equestria, and not all may be nice.

Cloudsdale, also known as Cloud City; this city, as its name implies is a floating city of clouds, constructed by clouds integrated with other materials in a style of architecture similar to the Corinthian and Roman styles. This city is where Equestria's whether factories exist, and is inhabited solely by Pegasi. It contains a large aerial stadium where games and air-shows and races are held, as well as the numerous whether factories. It also contains shops with a limited selection.

A large mountain with a cave at the top, where the red dragon was taking a nap not so long ago. The cave might still have some treasures left, however the journey upwards is very dangerous.

The Everfree Forest is a mysterious place outside Ponyville. No one truly knows what lies within the forest. What is known is that the environment is not bound by the same laws as Ponyville, meaning Natural Laws is applied here. According to various ponies, plants grow and the weather changes without their involvement, and animals care for themselves.
This is completely alien for the Ponies who see nature working on it's own without their aid as unnatural.
It is home to many strange creatures and other hazards such as the plant poison joke.

The conquered City of Fillydelphia, once one of the largest pony settlements. Now once more under Equestrian rule, the fearsome Diamond Dog conquerors were driven out and the city was quickly repopulated by the Equestrian Army.

Froggy Bottom Bog is the most dangerous of the Wilderness' across Equestria, not only because it houses terrible monsters like the hydra, but also because this is where the Cult of Eclipse has set its home base, if one could get past all of the dangers of the bog, they would have to face the angry cultists as well. (High danger wilderness!)

What was once a quiet farming village of Hoofington, on the western edge of the Everfree forest, has turned during the Blood Wars into a massive, self sustaining citadel. Now considered one of the safest settlements in Equestria, despite bordering the Everfree.

The large pony city of Manehattan, where most of the populace are the wealthy, the social elite, and the glamorous. The large city has cobbled roads and sidewalks, large high-riser buildings and plenty of shopping centers. If you can make it here, you can make it anywhere.

Ponyville is a town in Equestria. It was a friendly community, and most Ponyville residents seem to know each other by name. The town was originally founded by earth ponies, but members of all three pony races live there.
Ponyville has a library, a confectionery shop named Sugar-cube Corner; Rarity's dress shop, the Carousel Boutique; a bath/spa. It also has a market with decent merchandise and Food carts operated on the streets, chief among them was Applejack's apple cart. Now however, it is in the process of being rebuilt following the war.

Whitetail Wood is a lovely forest on the outskirts of Ponyville, place for the annual Running of the Leaves, as well as a fine place to trot in to relax. Recently however, strange animals have begun moving around there. But it is regularly patrolled, and a relatively safe place.

Since some quests span across more than one city\town\wilderness this board is where these quest threads will be published! Transition between cities IS POSSIBLE IN-THREAD ON THIS BOARD.

The historical site where the Dragon Wars began, by an agreement between the Griffon Kingdom and the Dragon Council this area is preserved and not mined despite the rich veins of irons in the mountains. The soil in and around the area is vividly red with iron deposits.

Site of the famous battle in the Dragon Wars where Silverback and the Silver Core joined the war. Now a smoking crater rich with iron and extraterrestrial metals due to the force of a magical attack cast by Princess Luna against the Adversary.

Griffon Capitol, home of the Whitefeather royal palace, the Great Griffon Agora and the Thunder Bird Bastion. The dominant population of Royal Rocks are Royal Griffons (lion-eagle griffons.) Royal Rocks is a cliff city at a tremendous height, strenuous even for Griffons to reach without airship.

A lush valley of forests and meadows. The most prominent vista in the area is Lake Placid, a lake so clear and still that it seems completely transparent. Inhabited mostly by animals but has several monsters in the forests and hillsides.

A vast and open desert linking the Griffon Kingdom and the Equestrian border, just north of Appleloosa. However, the desert is known to be extremely dangerous, filled with dangerous creatures and natural hazards. It is the home of the nomadic Camel tribes.

The hollow is a vast canyon in the Griffon Desert, known as a very diverse but very poor and tightly crammed city, it is the most populated Griffon settlement in the world. Caverns were dug on the sides of the canyon by Quarry Eels and turned into neighborhoods all the way to the bottom.

A large range of mountain wilderness where Rocs often nest, they help protect travelers so its relatively safe, but even with Roc assistance, the conditions can be quite extreme!

The Griffon sky routes, possibly the most plagued with Sky Pirates. While the griffons have the military capability of eliminating them, the vast wild areas are perfect hiding spots, and easy to transfer from one to another. Making attempts to destroy pirate bases very difficult.

The Frozen Wastes cover all of the Northern Barrens right up to the Gate of the Northern Crater. Filled with some of the foulest creatures in the world, as well as roaming packs of Winter Wolves this is one of the most dangerous wildernesses in the world.
