Rift Canyon
This strange valley is more than 180 miles long and up to 30 miles wide. Dreadful monsters dwell within the rift, and the surrounding wasteland is filled with hazardous locations, including the infamous volcano, White Plume Mountain.
This strange valley is more than 180 miles long and up to thirty miles wide, but was not formed by river action. A rocky wasteland surrounds the Rift, adding to its unnatural character. Rainwater drains into caverns throughout its expanse. Long explored by the lawless folk of Riftcrag, the Rift still shelters many menaces within it. Thousands of evil Reyhu bandits fled to the Rift following Iuz's invasion in 583; these angry men worship Erythnul, and they have no qualms about sacrificing intruders. Rift bandits often venture out to gain food and weapons; try as they might, Iuz's commanders cannot block all canyon exits. The west end of the canyon has dreadful monsters that seem to issue forth from the caverns. Southwest of Rift Canyon is White Plume Mountain, a lone volcano of awful reputation; north are the Tangles, where other anti-Iuzite bandits hold out.
