Yeah, worldbuilding is hard stuff while keeping your characters intact.
Yes, I know. I've had to do research before, and consider my audience. I learned 99% of that in Brandon Sanderson's "Writing Fiction" class at BYU.

Also keep in mind your readers, who will want to read this story, what age group and denominations would find this intriguing? Is this a Young Adult Fantasy story or a Hard/Soft-core Fantasy story?
I once spent three months doing nothing but world crafting before I ever evolved the characters and the plot; sometimes that is necessary since part of my world crafting were the innumerous systems of magic and psychic prowess; other times it isn't all that necessary. Part of writing novels is discovery and an open mind. So reach out, do the research and go for it.
