The island itself does not have a stable geographical location but has been known to move throughout time and space, being moved by the gods. Currently it is floating in an astral sea far and hidden in many other civilizations. The island itself would have a sun and moon that circle the island and dip beneath the waves, where the Olmeidian underworld is located. The sky itself resembles a dome of a coconut shell.
The island itself is actually a collection of islands measuring about the size of hawaii. They are shaped like an atoll, basically one large crescent shaped island sits in the middle that is called Llopekai or Llopek. In the center is a smaller round island with a volcano in the center called Olmeidi’i or Olmeid. Smaller islands trail off from the two larger islands and few of those have mountains but are very Hilly.
Llopek is very mountainous and green with a few active volcanoes. Olmeid has one very active volcano in the center that is said to be the home of the volcano goddess who seems to be suspiciously similar to Pele. Olmeid seems to have suffered a big volcanic eruption some years ago and collapsed one side of the volcano towards what used to be a bustling city of Milu. What remains of the city are ruins, and cooled lava flows.
There are very, very few indigenous metals or ores with exception to Majhilichite. Most of this has to do with the volcanic nature and how the islands were formed. Deposits of minerals are just not old enough for the minerals to really form. The constant erosion and movements of the island itself prevents most ores of metals from forming. Colorful beaches of pink or black sand signify that corals and volcanic ash are major contributors to the island's makeup.
Majhilichite is the Ore that is most common but even it is not very hard or durable. It bubbles up from the volcanos and is deposited after it cools. Some of it can be found in old dormant lava tunnels.
Majhilichite Ore has unknown origins but it is strongly suggested to be remnants of either the early creative forces of the universe or where chaos ley lines deposited vast quantities of magic on the island. The ore looks a lot like bismuth and has the same harness as gold but when heated up, it creates fumes that can be breathed in and give visions of alternate timelines, past and future events. It can also greatly increase magic capabilities. So much so that even a handful can have humans stand toe to toe with gods. However, it is very magically radioactive, with the risk of causing anomalies such as tumors, illness, magical abilities, mutations, insanity or even death. Throwing it into the water is bad news because the water will become tainted with the ore and mutate or poison wildlife and people alike. Mining this ore is very dangerous as it involves actively working alongside volcanic activities or digging vast networks of unstable tunnels. It can be transmuted but into what?
Tropical. Summers are hot and rainy, winters are very warm and dry. There is no snow or ice even on the tops of the mountains because the mountains are not high enough to really develop snow.
