Mature content doesn't bother me, whether you want to include that or not.
I prefer to roleplay on Skype or through PM. If you'd like to roleplay please tell me which you prefer!
Edited RACES, BELIEFS and added HOLIDAYS [WIP].

This planet, Oxonnia, has everything you thought impossible. Magic, mythical creatures, a pure utopia. These things are all connected, and go hand-in-hand with one another. Millions of years ago, these creatures - the five sentient races, learned to harness the magic that reigned down on the world in the form of comets. Though with such great power, an ancient power has awoken.
Dragons. These massive, horrific beasts consume magic faster than it can be cycled back into the planet, and they use this magic to corrupt anything and everything into minions, claiming new territory to make into fertile soil for desolate landscapes. Will you be on the battlefield, or in the safety of the nations?

REGIONS
Frozen Plateau
Desolate Roost
Windswept Mountains
Twisted Woodlands
Deserted Grove
Sunscorch Dunes

MAJOR CITIES
Oxonne is the human city.
Eldritch is the lycan city.
Windy Hill is the harpy city.
The Sanctuary is the evoco city.

DRAGONS
Blitzkrieg represents lightning, storms, and floods.
Vyadim represents fire, chaos, and war.
Xerneas represents crystals and illusions.
Umbrae represents stealth and shadows.
Lorelias represents ice and blizzards.
Azathoth represents destruction and mindlessness.

RACES
Humans are strong-spirited souls. Pushed back by the dragon Blitzkrieg, it has swallowed their hope whole. However, this race will not move another inch to the monstrosity of a beast. They serve under an Emperor, currently, whose right-hand is a King. Among any race, humans are the most experienced with using magic. The only "special tweaks" humans have is their ability to have an unusual eye color. Red, orange, purple.. you name it.
Their territory is typically forest, fields, hills and mountains. Every season passes by this area in just the right amount. Not too harsh, not too light. They have a few towns in colder and hotter climates on the edges of the tundra and desert, as well.

Lycan are vicious, anthropomorphic wolves forged by a lust for blood. Parents hire a mentor to teach their young to fight at a young age. Usually, lycan stand over six feet, and are hunched over due to their sheer height. Most can be seen bearing horns, cheek spikes, long teeth, or any combination of the three. There are three legions they dedicate themselves to based on their best interests: Maiestas ["majesty, dignity, greatness"], Audentia ["boldness, courage"], and Crescere ["to grow" as referring to a crescent moon]. Each legion has a single leader and three subordinates. Not only, but pups are not born into legions, they choose who they join.
Height is typically from 5ft [1.5m] to 9' [2.7m]
Weight is typically from 190lbs [86kg] to 480lbs [217kg]
Appearance-wise they are very diverse. Black fur, white fur, short fur, long fur, spots, stripes, dapples - you get the point. It's basically a game of mix-and-match. They run on all-fours, despite standing and walking on two legs.
Roughly lycan are essentially canine versions of charr from Guild Wars 2.
Their territory covers a gigantic plot of land. Eldritch sits in a giant forest stretching many miles in every direction, though the territory is rocky and occasionally treacherous to those who aren't careful where they step. Summers are blaring hot, winters are freezing. Their major city is the only real area they live, so you will rarely see lycan in any other area except this spot.
Making their homes in thick-walled, wooden houses, it's safe to say lycan feel pretty comfy in their homes.

Harpies are curious, lively beings. They appear to only be humans with wings, though are extremely agile and can shapeshift into birds, depending on their wing type. Most make their homes from the treetops or in hills. Currently, they are threatened by the dragon Lorelias, and fear the cold will push them from their city.
Height is typically from 4ft [1.2m] to 5ft [1.5m]
Weight is unsurprising, as because of their short stature, they are rather lithe. The range is typically from 85lbs [38kg] to 130lbs [60kg]
Appearance-wise they resemble humans almost exactly, save for the smallness. They have wings on their backs that can virtually be any color or style. Be as flamboyant as a macaw or red ibis; or as plain as an osprey or an albatross. Their eye colors can be a little wacky, too!
They live in the mountains. It seems like the land is eternally stuck in the season of fall, occasionally with the light flurry. Look around the trees while exploring this land - you never know if you'll find a door on one of them!
Yes, harpies usually make their houses from nature. Tree-houses, underground, even in mounds (hobbits?)

Evoco are an extremely spiritual and peaceful race where the majority lives in tribes across the planet. They are essentially humanoids with skin color that can range from anything on the color spectrum. Typically, an evoco's skin stops changing color around eighteen years of age, and can be affected by mainly two things: diet and climate. Usually, children cannot leave the village until considered adults at eighteen.
HEIGHT is typically from 5ft [1.5m] to 6ft [1.8m]
WEIGHT is typically from 120lbs [54kg] to 175lbs [80kg]
Appearance-wise, evoco resemble humans very much. I've explained above, however, their skin ranges from cherry red to pine green. Based on numerous factors, from the time they can eat food to the time they are eighteen, their skin color changes. Some have sharp or flat teeth; round ears, elf ears, and fur-tipped tails, though they are born with these things and they do not disappear or morph.
Red skin is caused by eating meat and a humid climate.
Blue skin is dominated by a diet of fish and a colder climate.
Yellow skin is the result of mostly eating fruit and plants and a tropical climate.
There really is no "light skin" or "dark skin" with evoco, just fabulous colors.
Most adults live in The Sanctuary, after having left their tribes. So, yes, the majority live in tribes across the globe, in small temples. Or big temples. Depending on how big the tribe is, as numbers range from 10-35+

BELIEFS
Humans believe in gods. Around Oxonnia, you can find shrines dedicated to these gods, such as Sabah - the god of the sun. Most gods represent the good and bad in life as well as human nature. Others are simply malicious and subject to no noble cause.
Lycan don't believe in deities, instead they look to their ancestors as the ultimate role models whose acts of glory should act as examples for all young of the race. Some lycan have said to have seen the ancestors manifesting as spirits, drifting around the region and leaving an eerie atmosphere behind.
Harpies look to ancient druids as the races' guiding light. These druids were connected deeply with nature, some able to speak with animals and even able to control them. Provided, some harpies are able to do the same.
Evoco believe in spirits to guide them throughout life. Each spirit represents something different. There are no "main" spirits, though about six, and evoco try to praise them all equally. These spirits are: Bear, Leopard, Wolf, Eagle, Deer, and Crow. They create shrines dedicated to these spirits. Some brand new, some abandoned.

HOLIDAYS [WIP]
Instead of months, those who live on Oxonnia relies on seasons for time, and number these seasons like we do with months. Spring and summer are roughly 92 days, and winter and fall about 88.

PLOT
Ultimately, the dragons must be stopped. Each nation is working independently against these beasts, instead of uniting with one another. Lycan and mermaids prefer to be independent functioning forces, humans and evoco have a bone to pick with one another due to past violence; not only, but harpies are preoccupied fending Lorelias' minions away from their region. This plot will progress as the stories go on.
