06FMHEX CRATER VALLEY

6 Crater Valley CR: Metals FME=Scarlet 5X Damage Scarlet Moon 5x Damage Rouge Moon   Crater Valley is an origin location for one of the humanoid species of the 4Moons. Large Craters can be seen in the Valley and the legends speak of peoples who landed in the vessels long ago and then blended in with the peoples of the planet. The rings of bacteria and plants that they brought with them mark the whole area of the valley as they aggressively attack droplets of water that have a certain blend of salts and metals present in them and set up small circular colonies of bacteria that use this combination of elements as their spawning mechanism for their queen bacteria. The workers can live off of light and can adapt to the environments of other planets. The queens just need the combined sources of water and the salts and metals that happen to be present in Crater Valley. When the Crater Valley peoples arrived they came with their own slaves who also crashed along with them. These slaves were the little peoples who escaped on impact and made their way as far away as they could to the Valelands and some went as far away as the lands of Farah and Zaar. It was these little peoples who understood the ways of combining different wavelengths of light in order to bend space and travel across vast distances on the planet without moving through the atmosphere itself, but rather by fusing their energy with the light waves themselves. The combination of the lights of the 4Moons provided just the mix that they needed to travel, but only in certain places on the planet. In these places they established marker circles of stone that became portals for instantaneous travel to these locations.   The stones of the Crater Valley have a particular blend of metals that when combined with enough other stones in the area will provide a resonant music if they are hit with the metal of the queen's ship. This metal does not exist on the planet of the 4Moons but pieces from the ship were taken by the little peoples who were slaves of the Ring Queens. It is with these stones that they build the portals that harness the wavelengths of light by combining them with the wavelengths of the specific sounds produced by the striking of the metal on the rocks of Crater Valley.   6 Crater Valley CR: Metals FME=Scarlet 5X Damage Scarlet Moon 5x Damage Rouge Moon   There are other species who come from outside of the world of the 4Moons. It is the unique combination of metals, light, salt and water that allow these beings to thrive if they can get the correct combination of materials to act in just the right way. They need the host of the living beings who are on the planet of the 4Moons in order to succeed as they are not powerful enough on their own to do so. So they interbreed in some cases. In other cases they try to influence the living beings to achieve the right balance of chemical and biological agents in order to provide for themselves an energy source so that they can continue to multiply and invade. In the case of the Ring Queens the goal is two-fold. The workers can live off of light energy from the 4Moons creating energy through photosynthesis and then get the nutrients that they need in order to continue their short lives from the soil around them. The Ring Queens need the metal, the salt, the water and the right temperature and humidity and light conditions in order to put down their spore sacks which then drain all of the life out of that area in order to create a ring of spores that then spreads out and makes more rings.   The Veil of Skyking are a species from another planet that can interbreed with the peoples of the 4Moons. They are humanoid but their genome is restricted until they can get the substance of the oil of jaune soaked into their bone marrow. The oil of jaune is itself activated by a wavelength and amount of radiation that is present in the moon of Jaune. This radiation eventually alters the human DNA weakening it so that the oil of jaune can flow in and fuse with the marrow of the humans causing their immune system to constantly flush each cell that would normally be healed with the radiation damaged immune cells that have the oil of jaune fused with them. The humans who are thus infected continue to reproduce more and more of the damaged immune response cells until their bodies are rife with them. The beings from the veil of skyking then want to consume these cells en masse so that they can have the power that comes from these cells. It is a warped form of energy that comes from a different form of the molecule of water that is heavier than the water of the planet now that it has been fused, this water continues to pollute the whole planet. Skyking wants to consume the bones of those who have absorbed it and whose bodies have transformed it. The great eagles of the forests of Jaune are the best known animal source, but there is one that is stronger and more powerful. It is the blood of the Scarlets. The scarlets have consumed and bred with the men of the other bloods and their own bloods are now mixed in the scarlets. It is said that the strongest queen of the scarlets will have blood that is drunk. If she is then burned and consumed then the veil of the skyking with the oil of jaune soaked in to the bones would have unified the powers of the 4Moons into one powerful being. So the daughter of Skyking, the lone survivor sets out to do this with a plan.
