Trivia
- Hidden Vale is the first continent added to the game. Novia was the second continent added. Mistrendur is the 3rd continent added.
- File:SotA Novia Circa1977.jpg
- The shape of Novia closely resembles Sosaria during the time of Ultima III: Exodus.
- Novia Overworld Rework: When we first built the overworld map for Novia we strayed a bit too far from the original design as laid out in the cloth map. This resulted in a lot of discrepancies including some major geographical mismatches, rivers that looked like oceans (or which were missing entirely), roadways that were as wide as mountains, misplaced points of interest, and other such oddities. In Release 30, we begin the effort to correct all of these errors and have brought Novia back into alignment with the contours and geographic features of the cloth map. During this process, all coastlines and areas throughout the entire, expansive interior of Novia were honed.[2]
