[Legionas]

Interesting, I'm also very impressed as to the level of detail you've been able to create. It's always great to see someone go for a more interesting approach when it comes to roleplaying.

The Federation of Legionas would like to serve as either country A or country B although I'm leaning more towards B. We are a Federal Republic under a Constitutional Monarchy with a population of around 123 million citizens with a highly developed and strong economy, (The Largest in Catica, I believe) as well as a massive military, which would be able to adequately protect your Islands from foreign aggressors. Feel free to ask me anything if need be!

Hello! I think Legionas would be great as Country B, actually. I'm still going through the wiki, but I think culturally, militarily, and in terms of language, it would be a good fit. Also, there is a geographic connection that makes sense...the Indigo Islands (shown as Indigo Island on the IDU map).

While I'm going through your wiki content, can you tell me a little more on the Indigo Islands?

• Are they inhabited? It makes sense to me that, if Maraix Island were sailing distance from Indigo, Laeral might contract with Legionas to provide services to Maraix – certain cargo ships that go to Indigo could take a leg out to Maraix, military vessels stationed at Indigo could be diverted to Maraix, if needed, people traveling to Maraix could fly into Indigo and sail to Maraix, etc. It also makes sense that there could be cultural connections forged between Indigo and Maraix, as they would be each other's closest neighbors out in the Tenebric.
  
• What is the climate of Indigo? I read some back threads in the forum about ecology, but it was a bit unclear to me where the tropics and subtropics fall on this map.
  
• Is there anything else about the Indigo Islands you think I should be aware of while I am working on this?
  

I'm thinking of requesting a spot on the map northeast of Indigo Island, because culturally and geographically, that makes sense to me. I'm hoping for a tropical or subtropical climate for Maraix, so I guess I'm wondering if you think that is possible, given its placement relative to Indigo.

Of course it's up to Gardavasque, but since Maraix Island is so small, I hope a simple call-out can be placed on the map indicating its location (it wouldn't have to depict landforms).

The Indigo islands are a small series of islands, cays, atolls and reefs. The Main Island, North Indigo (Or the one depicted in the official map), is the largest and most populated island in the island chain.

Of the total 10 or so islands in the chain, only half of them are inhabited. North Indigo has a population of around 10,000 permanent settlers, with another 3,000 military personnel being present. The other four; West Indigo, East Indigo, Hammerhead Island and Point Rudolf have populations varying within the 500 to 3,500 mark with Point Rudolf having the smallest population, of around 500 inhabitants.

The islands generally have a cool climate, which fluctuate in a narrow temperature range. Average monthly temperatures range from around 11°C in January and February to around 6 °C in June and July, corresponding with summer and winter. The maximum temperature reached is around 24 °C (75 °F) in January, and the minimum is −5 °C in July. The annual average is around 5.6 °C.

I'm not too sure of what else you'd need to know. The North Indigo Island does operate a small airport and port. The Hampden Reef is one of the most bio-diverse living structures on Earth owing to its position at the center of the meeting point between the warm Xiomeran Current and the Cold South Tenebric Current.

I think your request for a spot North East of Indigo Island is a great spot, perhaps closer to the Equator if you want a Tropical/Sub-tropical climate. Of course the final decision comes down to the cartographer, but I think your request should be possible.
