Ground

A rugged mountainous biome where the winds howl through cliff passages and wraith-like creatures made of condensed mist patrol the heights. The cliffs are repositories of ancient spirit energy that solidifies in cold air.

F08 Frosthold Vigil	Home faction of this biome. Controlling faction on every recorded settlement row.
F06 Cogmist Engineers	All seven NPC rows.

NPCs here from other factions: F06 Cogmist Engineers (7 NPC rows). An NPC can belong to any faction and live or work in a settlement controlled by another faction.

The faction named as starting control in the header holds the biome at the start. Control can change during play, and quests follow whoever controls the biome at the time.

Signature, primary, secondary, and minerals

These rows are recorded on the B060 resource table and were not in the gatherable list above.

ID	Name	Type	Rarity

PRI-060	Wraith Stone	PRIMARY	Uncommon–Rare

Harvest

The harvestable index records counts for biome 060 only: flora 4, ore 3, trees 3, total 10. That index does not name the rows, so those counts are not assigned to names here.

Named flora recorded for Wraithcliff Highlands:

ID	Name	Harvestable
FLORA-FROS-060	Frostgrass	Yes
FLORA-SNOW-060	Snowbloom	Yes
FLORA-ICE--060	Ice-Fern	No
FLORA-MURK-060	Murk Lichen	No
FLORA-FROS-060	Frost Moss	No
FLORA-PERM-060	Permafrost Spike	No
FLORA-ICE -060	Ice Cap Flower	No
FLORA-WINT-060	Winter Grass	No

Two named flora rows are marked harvestable. That does not match the harvestable index count of 4. Duplicate flora ids are left as separate recorded rows. Both figures are left as recorded. The ecological-role cell says PROTECTED SPECIES on Ice-Fern, Murk Lichen, Frost Moss, Permafrost Spike, Ice Cap Flower, and Winter Grass.

Not recorded: a named tree list, and a named ore list that matches the index counts of 3 and 3.

Arena	{'location': 'Wraith Cliff Passages', 'description': "The boss encounter takes place in the heart of Wraithcliff Highlands's most extreme terrain feature. The arena is shaped by subpolar cold conditions — no neutral ground exists. In 0.68g, player jump arcs extend 47% further than Earth-equivalent, and boss knockback sends players 35% further than expected.", 'arena_size_m': 84, 'special_terrain': 'Spirit possession risk highlands', 'hazard_active': 'Spirit Possession'}
Ground blurb	The Bleak Prowler the Ancient is the apex expression of Wraithcliff Highlands's ecosystem — a creature that has been shaped by subpolar cold conditions across centuries of adaptation in 0.68g. It is not simply dangerous. It is what Wraithcliff Highlands would be if the biome could choose to fight.

Weather

The atmosphere row records weather patterns Wraith Wind, Spirit Rain, and Mist. Those three names are not rows in the weather table. Six weather rows are recorded for this biome.

ID	Name	Code	Recorded effect
WX-060-STORM	Storm	STORM	Severe visibility reduction. Player movement restricted. Pack predators shelter. Ambush predators peak activity.
WX-060-ASH	Ashfall	ASH	Reduces visibility. Ash-adapted creatures +15% aggro. Node guardian activity increases. Spirit Crystal harvest modified.
WX-060-SNOW	Cold Event	SNOW	Winter only. Fauna density minimum. Node guardians reduced patrol. Resource yield -20% all types.
WX-060-ANY	Any Weather	ANY	Weather-independent spawn — present in all conditions.
WX-060-RAIN	Rain/Mist	RAIN	Rare moisture event. Suppresses primary hazard temporarily. Most comfortable traversal conditions.
WX-060-CLEAR	Clear Sky	CLEAR	Maximum K3V amber light. Visibility maximum. Best navigation conditions. Standard resource yields.

Spawn entries recorded on those rows: Storm 10, Ashfall 10, Cold Event 10, Any Weather 14, Rain/Mist 14, Clear Sky 12. Night-multiplier entries above 2.0 recorded on those rows: Storm 5, Ashfall 3, Cold Event 0, Any Weather 5, Rain/Mist 3, Clear Sky 1.

Mobs

Seven named mobs are recorded. One further row records 63 additional spawn-table entries that are not named. Those 63 are not listed as species here.

The node-network file records a guardian name string on each of these eight nodes. Those strings are not rows in the named mob list above. The biome file, used in this table, records no guardian on the three positive nodes and a guardian present on the five negative nodes. Both records are left as recorded.

World events

Three world events are recorded. Where the duration cell and the notes cell disagree, both figures are left as recorded. The biome-pack names and the world-event master names disagree. Both name sets are left as recorded.

Image prompt

Text only. No file is uploaded. The prompt below is the recorded overview prompt for B060, followed by the ground description and settlement names already on this page.

Recorded overview prompt: ABERNON game concept art, Biome 060 Wraithcliff Highlands, K3V amber light, subpolar_cold environment, 0.68g low gravity, Frosthold Vigil faction territory, AAA game quality, cinematic painterly, panoramic establishing shot, biome landscape at K3V amber light, faction settlement visible, atmosphere establishes biome identity.

Detailed prompt for an image creator: Painterly cinematic establishing shot of Wraithcliff Highlands, biome 060, subpolar cold, under K3V amber light at 0.68g. A rugged mountainous biome where the winds howl through cliff passages and wraith-like creatures made of condensed mist patrol the heights. The cliffs are repositories of ancient spirit energy that solidifies in cold air. Terrain recorded as spirit possession risk highlands. Ice-edged highlands and wind-carved stone. The amber sun gives little warmth here. Spirit Possession is the recorded primary hazard. Spirit Crystal is the signature resource. Recorded colour palette: steel blue, dark pin. The Frosthold Vigil settlement Wraithcliff Settlement is visible, with Spirit Hollow and Wraith Cliff Passages in the same territory. AAA game concept art, faction territory readable in the architecture, no text in the image.

The image-prompt table also records twenty ungenerated prompts, IMG01181 through IMG01200. Each uses this recorded stem, with the type name in place of the scene type: AAA game concept art, Wraithcliff Highlands, subpolar cold biome, [type], amber tundra, ice-edged stone, cold wind haze, Spirit Possession environmental hazard visible, Unreal Engine 5 quality, painterly, cinematic lighting, amber K3V star palette, alien yet familiar world aesthetic.
