Scorched Lands
Posted: Sun Aug 02, 2020 9:15 pm
So in DB 2: Phase World the Scorched Lands are one of the dimensions described in the gate lands of Center.
So a few questions to throw out there:
1. Is there anything else out there about scorched lands, even in a Rifter?
2. Do we know where in Hades and Dyval this place would connect?
3. The description is almost Nightlands like, any connection there?
4. It is described as having vauable minerals, do you think it would have things like white iron and black iron from palladium?
5. The way the sky is described it doesn't sound like there is a day night cycle and sun so could vampires operate here?
DB 2: Phase World, Pg. 16 wrote:The Scorched Lands: This dimension is covered by black
rocks and sand under an angry red sky. Travelers arrive through gates that open through dolmens very similar to the ones found in Stonehenge. Four very active gates lead to this dimension. The scorched lands are connected to Dyval, the demonic plane; Hades, the Greek death-realm, and the elemental planes of fire and earth. A few cities are scattered among the black mountains. Their inhabitants are dedicated mostly to mining and metal working; the black lands have incredibly rich metal deposits. Despite frequent raids by demons and elementals, the scarcity of food and water, and other dangers, these cities have grown and prospered, largely because very valuable minerals, including psylite, uranium, and some rare and exotic metals and gems are found there. A great deal of trade is conducted between these cities and Phase World. One of the cities is run and controlled by Naruni Enterprises - the city became indebted to the corporation and when they couldn't meet their payments their mines were seized and they now work as slave labor. A stark reminder of the dangers of doing business with the Naruni.
