Acid Lake:
A mix of sulfuric acid and hydrogen chloride comprises the
body of the lake. Taken together, the lake and the mesa land to its west, known as the Taint,
represent some of the Spine’s most hostile and unforgiving country. An
alternating combination of jagged cliffs and beaches of jagged glass surround the lake. Fumaroles, stinking of
sulfur, roll over the burbling surface, poisoning the air and limiting
visibility.
The lake is nothing less than a wound in the world. The acid
is produced as waste by a group of
earth elementals that have latched on the land surface that now forms the
lake’s bottom and are feeding on the planet’s dwindling tectonic energy. This
has been going on for over ten thousand years. In appearance, the acid
elementals resemble giant leaches made of pitted and stained stone.
Dude, that is astoundingly cool.
ReplyDeleteI love the acid elementals. Good stuff.
ReplyDeleteSounds like the sort of place my players would dive right into...
