Mapvember Day 14 - Crater (Free Map #95)
🕑 Added 2019-11-14 20:25:45 +0000 UTCHey folks!
Here's our Crater map for Day 14 of Mapvember - The Jewel of Ibex Crater!
Deep in the Southern Jebian Desert of the Rites of Heran, there is legend of a system of roads, revealed only at the whim of the sands.
It is said that if you are skillful and lucky enough to navigate these roads successfully, they will lead you to The Jewel of Ibex Crater; an ancient city built aeons ago, which has since been occupied by many different cultures throughout history.
No one knows what caused this crater to be but whoever built the foundations of this city built it with the purpose of using it as a gate to guard what lies below it.
Currently, the city runs on a system of lava and water. These two resources are the main driving force that fuels the city in both its defenses and everyday life.
The city also uses this lava as a final fail-safe where, if it believes it will otherwise be lost, a one-time-deal button can be activated to release all the lava in the reservoirs and surround the city in a moat of lava. Though this button has never been pressed, it has nearly occured twice in the citys known history.
Access
To get into the city you must enter 1 of the 8 tower gates, which are all settlements in their own right. Through access of one of these towers, you can reach the outer ring of the city where all different kinds of races and visitors live.
The inner circle of the city has strict access as it is where the Brahmins of Varna work. Only members of the Brahmin may enter the inner circle, where it is said that one of the world trees is located.
Towers
At each of the 8 tower gates there is a strange tower-like structure connected to a reservoir of lava, which is said to be these strange structures' power supply.
Outsiders understand these towers to be powerful defensive weapons that use the reservoirs of lava as fuel for its ammunition.
Dragons
Two dragon statues, built by the second generation of occupiers, sit North and South of the city. It is said that these beings bless the site of the crater.
These dragons are made out of a stone not found anywhere near the Jebian Desert. In fact, it can only otherwise be found way up in the North in the arcane wastelands of Lynchford.
Bonus fact: Located in the Northern Jebian Desert are the Twin Aros Tombs, which you may remember if you have been keeping up with our Mapvember posts!
