Temple Ruins:
Board, Jungle
Deep into the jungle, a lucky (or unlucky?) traveller might find themselves within the ruins of a mighty temple. It is half crumbled and in ruins, but its architecture boasts complex carving and stunning color, soaring pillars and a single staircase that leads deep down, to where untold treasures could await. No one ever knows what they might find when plunging into the maze-like levels of the temple, be it treasure or beast or terrible booby traps.
The Barrows:
Board, Grasslands
There is a grassy plateau speckled with small hills and mounds---barrows, ancient tombs for souls that are long departed, rolling into the distance. There are hundreds of them, each holding an iron door and a stone frame. Mist perpetually envelopes this place as surely as silence does. It is said that any who try to raid these tombs for treasure or those who wander too far among the barrows will never find their way out again.
Daemon:
Fauna, The Barrows (the temple ruins?) or anywhere
These are the restless spirits of companion creatures of myth: dragons, unicorns, griffins, and the like. They haunt the barrows, protecting the tombs of their bonded people, often reacting with hostility and violence against those who stray too close where their masters rest. Wounds from a daemon are deadly, poisoning the victim with the ether of the afterlife, and death will find them if they are not treated quickly. used!
Ether Onion
Fauna, Grasslands
In almost every way, other onions appear like perfectly normal onions. Their flavor is sweet, they're filling, but their stench is enough to discourage consuming them regularly. They will grow only where moonlight can reach them, and will glow white when the moon is full. Known for healing properties, their pulp is often used as a salve on supernaturally earned wounds. If eaten, it is said that the stink alone will ward off unfriendly spirits.
The Summit:
Board, Mountains
The tallest peak of the mountains, this summit stretches so high that one might believe they can touch the stars. It is never without snow, frigid with thin air, but the sights are breathtaking. Traversing this mountain is treacherous and rife with peril, be it creature or rockslide or even freezing to death. It can take weeks to climb it, but at its peak, it is said that one can see their fate written in the stars.
Cloud Wyrm
Fauna, Grasslands or desert
Cousins of the dragon, these small and serpentine creatures boast no wings or destructive breath. Rather, they breathe clouds. Their four-legged white bodies can be seen slithering through the air, puffy clouds streaming from their mouths to ease the intensity of the sun on the plains. They never get any bigger than a weasel, and are known as docile, playful creatures, and they seem to enjoy collecting shiny things. used!
