Dead Pools

Location
North of Dourkarst. Not claimed by anyone.

Terrain & Climate
A cluster of toxic lakes and ponds that quietly emit their fumes into an otherwise cold and dry air. The water itself is clear, but the volcanic rock underneath makes them seem bottomless. Their waters flow slowly north to the Putrid Bayou, and south through the Dourkarst and on into the Mellimouth delta.

Flora & Fauna
What little life survives this place is as poisonous and dangerous as the lakes they live around.

History
There has been considerable academic interest towards this place, both the water and the sparse, twisted life that survives here.
