The Ashen Wastes

Geography

A vast plain of burnt grass and dirt, dotted by corpses and monuments built by monsters both new and old. One lake runs through it, the only sign of a lush life. The land exists as a scar on Zuhelia, reminding all of the battle 100 years ago, dividing the land in more ways than one. To the west lies a waste assailed by dust storms, while the east is home to The Death Mound, a dump site of all the corpses from the war 100 years ago, many coming to life to roam the land.

Ecosystem

Wildlife is scarce, most having left or been eaten by ravenous Gnolls that roam the area. That which isn't dead must fight to survive with the horrible remains of the war long ago.

Localized Phenomena

Dust storms and acidic ponds are rare sights, out of place but at the same time not.

History

What was once an affluent, beautiful plane is now scorched earth after the war 100 years ago. Scorched earth, husks of former livable villages, and horrible hunting bands of monstrous Gnolls are now the expected sights to see here.

Tourism

The few traders or travlers willing to make their way across the land, as well as would be heroes looking for glory against monsters.
