Wastes

A land whose weather and climate has been destroyed by magical phenomena. Chaotic is the best word to describe it. It was once a home to many obsidian dragons who were expelled from the Ruby Palace, home of all gem dragons. As such, the landscape warped to suit their needs, and was warm and extremely mountainous, full of active volcanoes, coal and obsidian veins etc. But they were eventually hunted down, and 3000 years later, there is only one left. Now The Wastes are inhabited by mostly black dragons, and are full of swampland and jungles. The weather is erratic and strange, and many malicious creatures gather here. There are some sapient races that make their home here, but they are elusive and incredibly hostile and wary of strangers.

Etymology

The name of this region before the blight of the dragons took hold is unknown. But for the past 2 centuries, it has been known as The Wastes by all those unfortunate enough to inhabit it.

Geography

As a result of the destruction of this regions climate, caused by the presence of numerous ancient and older dragons, its geography is in complete turmoil as well.

West

What was once great and sprawling forests that rivaled those of Batun now resemble a mass graveyard, decorated with the bones of dragons far larger than any mortal could imagine, and dead trees as tall as mountains. The landscape is also scattered with ruins from ancient times.
Surprisingly, there are a few towns scattered on the coast, away from the chaos and rot further inland.

Central

This be the home of dragons, monsters, and whatever other nightmares a child can dream of. In the near dead center of the land is a crater larger than any dragon that has exited on record. The cause of it is one of Valloth's greatest mysteries, along with how deep it goes. Surrounding this crater are wild and untamed forests and jungles, with many scattered ruins.

East

Similar to the west, this section of the continent consists of dead forests as far as the eye can see, with scattered remains of what appears to be dragons. Though the bones are far larger than any living dragon.
