In the beginning, Xothu was created from the dust and residue of the universe. The final planet and the living one. Here I was born, and here I shall stay, until my dying day. Xothu - a world of greatness.
- Anonymous Human Scripture, on the formation of Xothu

Art&Lit and Technology could probably be moved to a sub-heading of civilization or something. I added them because there was nowhere intuitively obvious to put major non-magical cultural achievements.

If I knew how to do that, I would. Good idea anarcharis!

We also need to flesh out Atmoshperics. I'm adding historical events.

Based on the Weather & Climate section, it appears that Xothu is another sphere-shaped world. Does it have to be? I'd much rather a cube, or a pyramid (since everyone knows there's something more to the pyramids than meets the eye).

Sorry Ducky, I'd have to protest strongly against that.

Yeah. It's really the most natural shape for a gigantic lump of rock floating out in space to take, if you take gravity into account. Any pyramidal planet's going to collapse into a sphere in a couple million years, and would probably be artficial anyway. Which is fine, except we've already got the Ninth World, which is all jewel-encrusted and segmented like a citrus fruit, and even that's spherical, so presumably whatever forces fiddled around with the system in the past either couldn't or didn't want to leave the basic sphere plan.
Check out Aotearoa, though- it's set in a world that's basically a bunch of continental plates held together with steel spiderwebs.

Okidoki.
I love the sound of Aotearoa. Must not... resist... urge to... write fiction...
Trouble brews in the Talomihn Empire, as a mad prophet spouts ominous warnings while the public remains divided in matters pertaining to Dargolia. Still, the mighty Talomihn Empire remains one of Xothu's great bastions of civilisation, and if you speak Kyrese you'll be more than equipped to make conversation with the locals. Just don't confuse it for their native tongue!

This sudden burst of editing might finally get the appropriately-named spheroid rolling again!
