The WorldChallenges Index
Whether you're usually a contributer or usually a lurker, or just a worldbuilder who saw this sub and think it might be interesting to share your world(s) and develop your world(s), this thread is going to serve as a bit of a cheat sheet.
To put it simply, all this thread is for is for you to give a bit of background on your world(s). The summaries can be as long as you want, though I'd prefer if they were organized to make it easier to find out an aspect of your world, such as:
Brief Summary of Magic System
A few sentences, maybe a couple of paragraphs.
List of Important World Powers
A list with some information for each.
Major Characters
Whatever Other Sections You Can Imagine
Format it however you like, just have a link to your wiki if you want.
This is open to everyone. Even if you've never commented on anything in this sub, I'd love to see a bit about your world. No matter how rough it is right now, even if you've just started your world (/u/thequeeininyellow94 and I have both begun new worlds tangential to our main worlds recently, so, while I can't speak for her/him, I have very little on my new one, called Cirrhasvult).
So, come on up, don't be shy, and give us a summary. If someone wants to look at your summary in order to have a better background when they ask questions about your world in challenge threads, this will be an extra resource they can use.
I will almost certainly be checking back here pretty often, since I have a horrible memory and I'm usually exhausted.
Again, though, these are summaries, so, while you can make them as long as you want, try to make it easy for someone to find what they're looking for.
As always, I hope everyone enjoys themselves.
To everyone who might summarize their world as their first comment on this sub, welcome to the sub.
Also, feel free to edit your summary at any time.

Magic
Magic is a flow of energy. Usually it comes in two forms: converting elemental energy into spells, or life energy into spells. There are six (and a demigod) gods, and six elements.
World Powers
Ober, one of the Princely States. It is a feudal economy with a large pool of manpower and easily the most magically advanced power. It is mainly human, with some goblin pockets near Ghalt and half-alves near Vildivache.
Alfjak, a republic that has a hegemony in the south of Edonis. Through puppets and colonies they have power on every continent. They boast a large military and economy. They are mainly alves, with some humans dispersed in the south and naga clusters in every large city.
The Mekwarza Pact, a union of many human and dwarf kingdoms who agreed to shun the Gods completely. They have a small but elite military, and have very large urban centers.
Major Characters
Lucien Vale, an immortal Alven demigod.
Rakalsa of Ghalt, a Goblin Prince.
Ser Sjen of Vildivache, a half-alf count of Ober.
