Name | Whirlwind Plains |
Japanese Name | 旋風の平原 |
""An open field of grass and small hills. lots of confusion was stirred when there wasn't
a sight of a herd of herbivores grazing the fields, it was quickly discovered why the moment cloud formations started to form at a rapid rate and several tornadoes already started to form. A place often shrouded in thunderstorms, supercells, tornadoes and microbursts. There is a lot of speculation why storms form so frequently here, some say its to do with an elder dragon, others say that the coriolis effect takes a drastic toll here compared to other areas, others also speculate that the it is a hotspot for the formation of moist air : combined with another unknown aspect that makes all these storms such a common occurrence. The truth isn't known but what is known is that the area is teeming with deadly monsters that have adapted to thrive with the frequency of storms such as the Sly Dilostraulis or the vindictive Renzukohan. The lack of research however is all blamed on the Archnemesis: Dendastroth whom is the apex of the region and has earned a demeaning reputation over recent times due to the constant threat of a Dendastroth, ravenous for a human snack being ever so present. Caution is especially required to survive this hazardous land."" | |
