[ • ] where is retribution set?
Retribution is set in a made up country so that you, the roleplayer, can be as inspired with your character as possible. While we have a rough outline available of the size and location of Verona, we want to avoid limitations where possible and felt that basing ourselves in an existing country would limit creativity in terms of backgrounds, occupations, morals, etc.
We can confirm is that the roleplaying itself takes place in said country's capital city: Verona. Verona is where the play 'Romeo and Juliet' is based, and is a real life historical city in northern italy.
 
[ • ] because verona is both a city and a country, how do i visualise this on a world?
good question!

and that answer to that is by clicking this hyperlinked map here. Now, this is a pretty crude drawing(it's literally a screenshot and me drawing random lines) however hopefully it can give you a rough idea on the country, it's geographical patterns and major cities.
 
[ • ] what does verona look like?
Verona is a large city that is mostly historical in architectural design. ancient world, baroque, gothic and renaissance can all be cited as architectural influences as verona has been standing for nearly 2 millenia.
Certain areas of the city are distinctly Asian due to a large migration event from various Asian countries such as Korea, China, Japan, Thailand, etc.
However the city has entered the 21st century like the rest of the world. a sizeable portion of verona is dedicated to modern architecture such as apartment buildings, skyscrapers, etc., to enable roleplayers their choice of setting.
if you'd like to immerse your character in a city with nearly 1700 years of history, then you can! if you'd prefer to look towards the future and progress, you can do so as well!
The city itself is roughly the same size as Rome(1,285 km²).
 
[ • ] what is the national language of verona?
the official language of Verona is italian, which english, french and dutch listed as minor official languages. assume all characters are speaking italian by default.

@◆ ⦙ aurelia florentia they would be yep! and in this world, we'll be mostly aristocratic countries, kind of like a mixed democracy where power is shared between a true democratic(or republic) government and the aristocracy aka kings/queens
◆ ⦙ aurelia florentia 1 month ago
@( ✶ ⦙ opal ) ah alright then!! that makes lots of sense! and for character templates such as the pillager and the gutless, would they be kings/princesses of other nations? since verona has it's own monarchy, would that mean other nations would have royalty too? or are we going with the current government of modern-day countries?

@◆ ⦙ luca it's alright! take your time!!

@◆ ⦙ aurelia florentia that is completely up to you!

if want to be an immediate family member aka a sibling to the princess, you would need to connect with the mun directly

for cousins, aunts, uncles, then i'm happy to leave that up ot you whether it's a relationship by blood, via marriage or via titles granted by the king(papa capulet) elevating them into the upper ranks of nobility(which would be duke-marquess-earl, below that would mid-tier ranks until the bottom tier which are just lords and ladies)

@( ✶ ⦙ opal ) @( ✶ ⦙ gold ) i have a small question! for members of royalty/nobility, are we actually kings and queens? or are we moreso just just members of high society?
