Rakbana

Rakbana is an expanse of wasteland located on the eastern end of the Meithrin region of Equis.

Though wide, it is largely empty. Most forms of life cannot thrive here due to the incredibly harsh environment created by the volcanoes that dot the landscape, which frequently spew clouds of acid over the surrounding landscape. Much of the ground is covered in a jade-coloured moss which has been noted to sparkle in the dim sunlight that filters through the acid clouds.

Occupants
Despite its inhospitable nature, there are some creatures that call Rakbana home.
 * Digesters, pack creatures resembling raptors with tube-like heads. They can spit a corrosive fluid, processed from the acid they consume, which is particularly adept at dissolving magical items.
 * Buzzghasts, large flying scavengers that create globes of acid and lob them to digest their prey before they move in to consume the remains.

Notable Features
Aside from the jade moss, rivers of acid and acid volcanoes, Rakbana offers little of interest. Though it once held many ruins and points of note, nearly all have been worn away by the acid.

The House of Origins
The House of Origins, Avarshinah's Temple, is found in the heart of Rakbana. It is a remarkably well-maintained structure, especially in contrast with its surroundings.

History
By Avarshinah's account, Rakbana is the ancestral home of the uremai, the now-extinct race of beings that penned the Renascentia Arcanum. She suggested that the land has not always been in its current state, and that it was once lush and vibrant before the uremai were punished for toying with deific magic.
