The Breach

The Scragg desert of Kadras was dominion of the Blue Clan of Dragons since the ancient days. However, at some point during the Third Era, amidst the Age of Charter Magic, the Cavern World city of Tar Min'myur let their experimentation with the art go too far, resulting in a great chasm to open up reaching from the surface down to the city below. What sprung from the breach were beasts of undefined origin, even in the Cavern World. They ransacked the city, claiming it as their nest and then journeyed to the surface. A noxious and almost toxic plume was belched forth from deep within the Twisted Scragg, preventing the beasts from straying too far from the chasm itself, but it poured out into the nearby waters, polluting it.

Manifestation

The areas of the Scragg Desert now infamously referred to as the Twisted Scragg is a seemingly bottomless chasm, that twists and cuts its way about fifty to one hundred miles inland and then out to sea. Many broken branches of the stiff earth breaks off in various directions, expanding the breadth of the catastrophe.The breach takes up about three hundred square miles of territory within the desert, forcing even the long lived Blue Dragon Clan to abandon their ancestral home in favor of less noxious pastures.

Localization

The presence of the chasm and the beasts that glide just below the cloud cover, unless they have risen to hunt or pounce upon unsuspecting prey have led to the majority of the nearby fauna from vacating the area almost entirely. Thanks to the toxic fog that spills out into the nearby land, the earth and soil has been tainted, unable to grow or bear plant life for very long. Being one of the only other places in the world to have suffered "a breach", similar to the Shattered Vale, travelers are warned to stay as far away as possible, for the lands surrounding the Twisted Scragg as far less kind than the desert around it.
