Spectrume (Settlement)

Environment Overview
The entirety of the climate of each island of Spectrume has been created through magical means. It is primarily tropical, despite being the farthest north region in all of Orange. It has snowy areas, but these are small, and also usually made by choice. The waters surrounding the islands have icebergs constantly drifting around them- again, an environment that has been created by magical means.

Social Overview
Spectrume is a very small town whose population consists of no more than 800 monks at a time. There is no government structure in place. The only monks who are given elevated treatment are those who maintain the weather.

Culture Overview
The town is rarely active. This is a place that monks go to achieve enlightenment, and are often off on mountaintops or deep within caves for long periods to that end.

Tourism is discouraged. The general attitude is that the outside world is overtly chaotic and useless. New monks often allow their family members to visit, but this usually ends sooner than later.

Monks that re-enter the world at large will often call themselves Spectrume monks, but there is nor formal organization of monks.

Economic Overview
Spectrume monks rarely feel the need to eat or use any material items. Traders rarely come to the islands because of this. It happens on occasion, usually the family members of a monk bringing soup or some other small gift, but such interactions are rare, and frowned upon.
