Wyvern's Roost was a massive crater in the eastern jungles of Amusa. It was regarded as one of the most dangerous regions of the wilds, known for its carnivorous flora, ravenous Wyverns, and secluded Yuan-Ti. The crater was created when centuries before a Mind Flayer Ship crashed in the wilds.
About[edit | edit source]
Wyvern's Roost is a massive crater chocked with jungle. In the skies above can be seen flying packs of Wyverns always searching for their next meal. The crater is home to the sites and remains of many lost expeditions, either seeking to explore the crater, or locate any lost technology from the mind flayer ship.
History[edit | edit source]
Centuries in the past a planar traveling Mind Flayer ship crashed in the Amusan wilds. Over the years the strange magic and technology from the ship began to change and mutate the craters inhabitants, turning them more monstrous and dangerous.
During the 800s PR period, Wyvern's Roost was considered to be within the territory of the two-headed dragon Kavanmort who sought to take control of the mind flayer ship for themselves, only to be stopped by the adventurer Aloysius Tempest.
Around 890 PR, a group of Yuan-Ti within the crater became infected with strange technological wires that emanated from a crack in the ship. The Yuan-Ti began to worship the ship, seeing Aloysius Tempest as a god. Their efforts were egged on by a Succubuss named Asatya, who was trapped in the ship and was projecting her spirit. The cult who dubbed themselves "The Cult of the Writhing Dark," worked to spread the technological corruption, only to be stopped by the combined efforts of the Mind Flayer Myxlixinal and The Tempest Brothers Expeditionary Company.
Much of the crater would be destroyed in 895 PR when the Mind Flayer ship was reactivated by Myxlixinal, but in the years after it became a hot spot for inventors and artificers who used what was left of the lost technology to start a technological renaissance.
