Planet Nocandia

Planet Nocandia is the main setting of the Skyhigh series.

History
Being born from Mass Neutral after it was covered with other planets, it was once a good place to live, with appearance very similar to real life Earth. After the events of the Shard War, the surface became toxic, not being able to sustain any life forms for much longer. Then the planet's inhabitants moved to the skies, living on countless floating platforms with huge chunks of land on them, and they continue to do so to this day.

Surface
It's an unbreathable and toxic wasteland, with all water being either dried out or transported away (depending if the water is clear or not). It's also covered in dense clouds from the sudden changes of climate.

Above the surface
After the Shard War, thousands of floating platforms with diverse climates were created, and put in a safe distance above the planet. They usually appear in groups of 6, an usual number of islands per a Quarta.
