Prismatica
Prismatica is a crystalline metropolis renowned for its geometric architecture and the sophisticated application of Chromatic Mathematics in both its design and daily life. Founded during the Great Crystallization Era, the city serves as the capital of Angular Territories and home to various geometric orders, most notably the Octagonal Knights of Spiritea.

History
The city emerged from the Geometric Awakening when early settlers discovered deposits of consciousness crystals that responded to mathematical precision. The first structures were built according to the Sacred Angle Principles, which later became the foundation of Prismatic society.
Architecture
Prismatica's buildings are constructed entirely from crystalline materials that channel and amplify geometric energies. The city's most prominent structure, the Grand Octagon Chamber, serves as both governmental seat and ceremonial center. Each building must conform to strict angular requirements established by the Architectural Resonance Board.
Society and Culture
The city's population is organized into various geometric orders, each dedicated to different aspects of crystalline harmony. The most influential include:
-
The Octagonal Knights of Spiritea, who maintain beverage ceremonies and architectural purity
-
The Hexagonal Healers, specialists in geometric medicine
-
The Square Scholars, keepers of mathematical knowledge
Economy
Prismatica's economy revolves around the refinement and trade of consciousness crystals and the production of geometrically-aligned goods. The city's Angular Market is famous for its precisely arranged stalls and the requirement that all transactions follow specific geometric patterns.
Education
The Geometric Brewing Academy stands as the city's premier educational institution, teaching everything from basic angle theory to advanced applications of Chromatic Mathematics. Students must master both theoretical and practical aspects of geometric harmony before graduation.
Defense
Besides the Octagonal Knights, the city is protected by the Crystalline Guard, a specialized force trained in geometric combat techniques. The city's walls incorporate complex mathematical formulas that create impenetrable energy fields.
