Aironoian Southeast (concept)

Biozone: Aironoian Southeast

Deep canyons, forested plateaus, and rocky mesas dominate the Aironoian Southeast, crisscrossing the region all the way toward the Redlands further south. In the lowlands, you will primarily find dry shrubbery and scattered plains that give way to the pinyon-juniper woodlands at higher elevations. The region is parched, with few springs and little rainfall year round. The diverse fauna of the southeast ranges from small rodents and reptiles to the far larger bears and antelopes of the woodland. Deep under the canyons, there are several massive aquifers that supply much of the region's water supply. Aversarians often claimed this region to be cursed due to rampant disease outbreaks in Aversarian strongholds, though little evidence of this can be found in the local communities.

The canyons and woodland hills of the Aironoian Southeast possess a harsh charm. The strong, chill winds of night match the dry air and heavy heat of the day. Our journey through low shrub lands gives way to the brown fields and dense thickets of juniper woodland higher into the hills. We must exercise caution when travelling through the deeper paths of the canyons, as dangerous monsters have been rumored to lurk there, but we can't help but feel optimistic as we look out a top the plateau, and scan the surrounding wilderness.
