Ground

A crucible-born caldera beneath the world's mantle where stone screams under thermal pressure. The hollow was formed when a planetary core event pushed superheated material through a weak crustal point. The walls still glow. The floor is barely solid.

Settlements

Name Type Population Controlling faction
Cruciborne Settlement Faction Outpost 1500 F09 Cinderwarden
Crucible Hollow secondary N/A F09 Cinderwarden
Mantle Shelf primary N/A F09 Cinderwarden

Settlement pages: Crucible Hollow, Cruciborne Settlement, Mantle Shelf. Settlement rows on the faction civilization table for this biome also have pages: Cruciborn Station. All settlements: Settlements.

Factions present

Faction Where recorded
F09 Cinderwarden Home faction of this biome. Controlling faction on every recorded settlement row.
F07 Ironveil Compact All seven NPC rows.

NPCs here from other factions: F07 Ironveil Compact (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.

Resources

Full table with IDs and node details: B100 Cruciborne Hollow/Resources.


Signature, primary, secondary, and minerals

These rows are recorded on the B100 resource table and were not in the gatherable list above.

ID Name Type Rarity
SIG-100 Planetary Crystal SIGNATURE Rare–Legendary
PRI-100 Mantle Core Ore PRIMARY Uncommon–Rare
SEC-100 Crucible Resin SECONDARY Common–Uncommon
MIN-COM-MAN Mantleite Common Mineral Common
MIN-COM-COR Core Ore Common Mineral Common
MIN-COM-CRU Crucible Common Mineral Common
MIN-RARE-MAN Mantle Crystal Rare Mineral Rare
MIN-RARE-COR Core Glass Rare Mineral Rare

Harvest

The harvestable index records counts for biome 100 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 Cruciborne Hollow:

ID Name Harvestable
FLORA-ASHB-100 Ashbloom No
FLORA-MAGM-100 Magmaweed Yes
FLORA-HEAT-100 Heat-Spine Shrub No
FLORA-EMBE-100 Ember Reed Yes
FLORA-VOLC-100 Volcash Fern No
FLORA-CIND-100 Cinder Bark Tree No
FLORA-THER-100 Thermal Spore Cap No
FLORA-OBSI-100 Obsidian Creeper No

Two named flora rows are marked harvestable. That does not match the harvestable index count of 4. Both figures are left as recorded. The ecological-role cell says PROTECTED SPECIES on Ashbloom, Heat-Spine Shrub, Volcash Fern, Cinder Bark Tree, Thermal Spore Cap, and Obsidian Creeper.

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

Deep zone

Field Value
Deep zone Deep Cruciborne — Mantle Core
Layout Magma Vault Network
Max players 6
Lockout hours 72
Boss name Planethorn — Deep Form
Ground note The Mantle Core has never been accessible to surface explorers. The Deep Zone system reveals what the biome contains at its most dangerous depth.

Boss

Field Value
Boss Planethorn, Ancient of Biome 100
Difficulty T3_Heroic
Recommended party 4
Damage type Arcane
Arena Mantle Shelf
Arena description The boss encounter takes place in the heart of Cruciborne Hollow's most extreme terrain feature. The arena is shaped by volcanic igneous 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) 100
Arena terrain Near-mantle exposure zone
Arena hazard Mantle Burns
Unique material Magma Scale
Ground blurb The Magma Beast the Ancient is the apex expression of Cruciborne Hollow's ecosystem — a creature that has been shaped by volcanic igneous conditions across centuries of adaptation in 0.68g. It is not simply dangerous. It is what Cruciborne Hollow would be if the biome could choose to fight.

Weather

The atmosphere row records weather patterns Mantle Wind and Core Storm. Those two names are not rows in the weather table. Six weather rows are recorded for this biome.

ID Name Code Recorded effect
WX-100-STORM Storm STORM Severe visibility reduction. Player movement restricted. Pack predators shelter. Ambush predators peak activity.
WX-100-ASH Ashfall ASH Reduces visibility. Ash-adapted creatures +15% aggro. Node guardian activity increases. Planetary Crystal harvest modified.
WX-100-SNOW Cold Event SNOW Winter only. Fauna density minimum. Node guardians reduced patrol. Resource yield -20% all types.
WX-100-ANY Any Weather ANY Weather-independent spawn — present in all conditions.
WX-100-RAIN Rain/Mist RAIN Rare moisture event. Suppresses primary hazard temporarily. Most comfortable traversal conditions.
WX-100-CLEAR Clear Sky CLEAR Maximum K3V amber light. Visibility maximum. Best navigation conditions. Standard resource yields.

Spawn entries recorded on those rows: Storm 13, Ashfall 12, Cold Event 18, Any Weather 7, Rain/Mist 15, Clear Sky 5. Night-multiplier entries above 2.0 recorded on those rows: Storm 1, Ashfall 5, Cold Event 0, Any Weather 1, Rain/Mist 6, Clear Sky 1.

Mobs

Five named mobs are recorded. One further row records 65 additional spawn-table entries that are not named. Those 65 are not listed as species here. That summary row records 9 corrupted variants and 0 event overrides. Its weather distribution cells are all zero.

ID Name Archetype HP Creature ID Node guardian
MOB-100-01 Crucibornhorn Large Herbivore 183 CR06931 False
MOB-100-02 Planetmantle Pack Predator 122 CR06932 False

Nodes

Nine network nodes are recorded. Three are positive and six are negative. The node profile records dominant NEGATIVE, density high, base respawn 58 minutes, and modifier 1.30x.

The node-network file records a guardian name string on each of these nine 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 six 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.

Recipes

Sixteen recipes are recorded, one for each item above. Output quantity is 1. The third material cell is blank on every row, so no third material is listed. Recipe unlock cells use T1 Known, T2 Trusted, T3 Honoured, and T4 Honoured. The faction reputation row names those bands T1 Neutral, T2 Friendly, T3 Honoured, and T4 Revered. Both wordings are left as recorded.

Image prompt

Text only. No file is uploaded. The prompt below is the recorded overview prompt for B100, followed by the ground description and settlement names already on this page.

Recorded overview prompt: ABERNON game concept art, Biome 100 Cruciborne Hollow, K3V amber light, volcanic_igneous environment, 0.68g low gravity, Cinderwarden 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 Cruciborne Hollow, biome 100, volcanic igneous, under K3V amber light at 0.68g. A crucible-born caldera beneath the world's mantle where stone screams under thermal pressure. The hollow was formed when a planetary core event pushed superheated material through a weak crustal point. The walls still glow. The floor is barely solid. Terrain recorded as near-mantle exposure zone. A land of fire and ash. Magma veins run beneath the surface. The K3V star paints the constant smoke amber. Mantle Burns is the recorded primary hazard. Planetary Crystal is the signature resource. Recorded colour palette: obsidian black, ember. The Cinderwarden settlement Cruciborne Settlement is visible, with Crucible Hollow and Mantle Shelf 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, IMG01981 through IMG02000. Each uses this recorded stem, with the type name in place of the scene type: AAA game concept art, Cruciborne Hollow, volcanic igneous biome, [type], amber volcanic glow, ash particles, ember light, Mantle Burns environmental hazard visible, Unreal Engine 5 quality, painterly, cinematic lighting, amber K3V star palette, alien yet familiar world aesthetic.
