Fiery Hellscape
From active volcanoes to the hottest layers of Hell, these regions are dominated by red-hot lava flows and flaming geysers. Adventurers journeying through these regions can expect to encounter many natural terrain challenges and dangerous creatures.
Terrains. Desert, laboratory, mountains, ruins, subterranean, temple, tomb.
Tiers. These regions lend themselves towards danger and are usually tier 3 or tier 4. A higher tier Fiery Hellscape might be found on a plane of elemental fire or the volcanic domain of a red dragon. Lower tier versions of these regions are rare, but might be found naturally occurring in some places.
Weather. Uncomfortably warm.
Hot. Traveling at faster than a slow pace is dangerous in the region’s hot temperatures, and adventurers that do so suffer a level of fatigue when taking a long rest (even if they have Supply). The use of appropriate mounts (such as camels) and keeping a light pack (less than half carrying capacity) allow for adventurers to travel as fast as a normal pace without suffering fatigue during a long rest.
Unquenchable Thirst. Twice the usual amount of Supply is required when taking a long rest.
Journey Activities. Checks to Harvest or Hunt and Gather are made at disadvantage . It is not possible to Busk.
