Regions begin as large, homogenous areas with either one or two aspects, but no more: a concept and an optional refinement. These aspects can be invoked by anyone within the region. During play, the gods can change these aspects, creating sub-regions by adjusting the refinement, or even redefining the region entirely.
Regions begin as intentionally bland. They are a blank page for the gods to play with.
Each region has a regional stunt which can be used only by gods who have marked the region.
Sub-Regions
Sub-regions are smaller areas within regions where conditions are broadly the same but different in one or two particulars. A sub-region has the same concept and regional stunt as its parent region, but a different refinement. If the parent doesn't yet have a refinement, then when it gains a refinement, it can split off into a sub-region. A region can have any number of sub-regions.
