The Maps of Myrist

Located between Merus Seru and The Grey, Mons Letalis – also known as the Deadly Mountains – is a contrast of towering peaks that seem to reach for the heavens, and deep valleys that surround them. The area is brightly lit and appears to almost glitter, as reflective, sparkling rock is found in abundance.

Subject to the same geological events that originally shaped Merus Seru, the rocky terrain of Mons Letalis has been rounded and smoothed by exposure to extreme heat. Running the length of the region from north to south is a deep canyon that winds its way around several peaks, breaking out into many branches that split off both to the east and west.

Access to the peaks is possible, but one must be careful – there are several plateaus where creatures native to this area hunt their prey. Goblin-sized creatures known as rockhoppers use their powerful legs to propel themselves up and down the mountains, and have powerful claws to dig small prey out of the cracks and crevices in the earth. They are found primarily on the mountainsides and within caves. Although not terribly aggressive, they are found in small bands that will aid one another when attacked, and their claws make them a dangerous foe to the unprepared.
