Perrenland Geography

Volcanos

The mountains surrounding Perrenland contain a number of active and inactive volcanos. They rarely erupt, but when they do they can have dramatic effects on the nearby countryside.

Metagame information: The dormant volcano Mount Hellspaar erupted in 594 CY, spreading volcanic ash high into the air over Perrenland, and did not abate until late in 596 CY. The cloud of ash over Perrenland was called Hell's Gloom, and had the following effect during 595 CY and 596 CY Perrenland regional adventures.

The daylight hours in Perrenland were shortened.

  • In eastern Perrenland (Traft, Clatspurgen, Kershane, Sepia Uplands and Quagfludt dawn has all but been blocked out, and it is not until 2pm that the sun appears below the cloud of smoke in the west. The sun disappears again at 6pm.
  • Over the remainder of Perrenland, the effects are less, and the sun appears at 10am. The sun disappears at 6pm.
  • Altitudes greater than 6000ft (St Cuthbert's Monastery, Yatilskaad, Don Craggen Keep, Kloetzenburg and Tielmannschlauss) are above this low laying layer of smoke and ash and are not subject to this effect.
  • During these Gloom hours, creatures that are negatively affected by sunlight can walk openly under the skies without penalty!
