Sandscorch Keep

A remote fortress high in the Mountains of Mirrors on the edge of the Highmountain Confederacy overlooking the Veshk Desert. It serves as the unofficial headquarters of the Panopticon and the various special forces units who fall under its perview and also use the harsh area as a training field while also serving as the Official headquarters of the 3rd Division, the "Sand Spiders" of the Azure Federation Army.

The Dry Well
The singular Tavern at Sandscorch, it offers drink and lodging for visitors though its most common customers are the troops stationed at the Keep. It is run by a Federation Navy Veteran, a heap of scars and tattoos in the general shape of a Goliath who answers to the name of "Bosun". He says little about his past and seems content to tend his bar and brew the caustic cactus wine that he has been attempting to learn from the locals.
The Panopticon
A secretive watchdog that serves to ensure the loyalty of the Azure Federation Army and Navy. They regularly butt heads with the regular units and the leadership of the Azure Federation military considers them a constant thorn in their side.
The Sand Spiders
One of the divisions in the Azure Federation, its forces are the least condensed of the Divisions being spread out across the border between the Federation and the Veshk Sultunate as well as patrolling the borderlands of the Edgewilde and the Clawe Forest. Scrappy Desert fighters, they have had to compensate for how thin they are spread by refining tactics that include lighting strikes, fast cavalry and guerilla warfare.
