Surrounded by the Gemfire Mountains, the Velaka Desert lies in the northwestern reaches of Therengia. It is split nearly in two by the Hekemhhg River and salty Lake Ratamipak. The desert is a harsh land with shifting sands, and is reputedly the living area of the Outcast Tribes, who shift like the sands they call home.
The desert itself is so hostile that visitors must travel via the Sand Barge which journeys between Hvaral and Muspar’i. Sand spiders, Mottled Westanuryns, Slavers, and Zombie Nomads all pose threats in the region. However, only the sand spiders are known to routinely threaten travelers along the Trade Route.
Within the desert are seven areas known as Rock Circles which tend to be gathering places for the slavers. Within one of the circles can be found the mysterious Walk of Bones where the undead are drawn.
Comments
- At this time there is a low player base in the city and at last count there were only thirteen official citizens of Velaka. (13 Sept 2008)
- It is advised that anyone going to the Velakan desert to train be prepared to create thier own maps each time they go. Once every three hours the desert sands will shift into a new random pattern so relying on someones map that was done before will not always work.
- The sand spiders and mottled westanuryn are the only two skinnable creatures in the desert.
