Ground

A barren scorched biome where the land is covered in charred remnants of a once-vast forest. The cinder fields are kilometers deep in compressed ash. Below the ash layer ancient trees have calcified into mineral deposits of unusual purity.

Settlements

Name Type Population Controlling faction
Cinderfield Settlement Faction Outpost 1500 F01 Ashen League
Ash Field primary N/A F01 Ashen League
Calcified Hollow secondary N/A F01 Ashen League

Factions present

Faction Where recorded
F01 Ashen League Home faction of this biome. Controlling faction on every recorded settlement row.
F04 Order of the Mirrorwake All seven NPC rows.

NPCs here from other factions: F04 Order of the Mirrorwake (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.

Harvest

The harvestable index records counts for biome 065 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 Cinderfield Wastes:

ID Name Harvestable
FLORA-ASH -065 Ash Fern Yes
FLORA-ASHS-065 Ashshrub Yes
FLORA-SAND-065 Sandbloom Yes
FLORA-CIND-065 Cinderbloom Crystal Plant Yes
FLORA-THOR-065 Thornscale Bush No
FLORA-SCOR-065 Scorchglass Weed No — Protected
FLORA-DUST-065 Dust-Root Binder No — Protected
FLORA-ARID-065 Arid Bloom No

Four named flora rows are marked harvestable. The ecological-role cell says PROTECTED SPECIES on Thornscale Bush, Scorchglass Weed, Dust-Root Binder, and Arid Bloom. The harvestable cell says No on Thornscale Bush and Arid Bloom and No — Protected on Scorchglass Weed and Dust-Root Binder. Both wordings are left as recorded.

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

Deep zone

Boss Ashhorn, Ancient of Biome 065
Difficulty T3_Heroic
Recommended party 4
Damage type Sonic
Arena {'location': 'Ash Field', 'description': "The boss encounter takes place in the heart of Cinderfield Wastes's most extreme terrain feature. The arena is shaped by subtropical arid 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, 'special_terrain': 'Ash-covered interior desert', 'hazard_active': 'Ash Inhalation'}
Ground blurb The Scorch Prowler the Ancient is the apex expression of Cinderfield Wastes's ecosystem — a creature that has been shaped by subtropical arid conditions across centuries of adaptation in 0.68g. It is not simply dangerous. It is what Cinderfield Wastes would be if the biome could choose to fight.

Weather

The atmosphere row records weather patterns Ash Wind, Cinder Storm, and Dust. Those three names are not rows in the weather table. Six weather rows are recorded for this biome.

ID Name Code Recorded effect
WX-065-STORM Storm STORM Severe visibility reduction. Player movement restricted. Pack predators shelter. Ambush predators peak activity.
WX-065-ASH Ashfall ASH Reduces visibility. Ash-adapted creatures +15% aggro. Node guardian activity increases. Ancient Cinder Crystal harvest modified.
WX-065-SNOW Cold Event SNOW Winter only. Fauna density minimum. Node guardians reduced patrol. Resource yield -20% all types.
WX-065-ANY Any Weather ANY Weather-independent spawn — present in all conditions.
WX-065-RAIN Rain/Mist RAIN Rare moisture event. Suppresses primary hazard temporarily. Most comfortable traversal conditions.
WX-065-CLEAR Clear Sky CLEAR Maximum K3V amber light. Visibility maximum. Best navigation conditions. Standard resource yields.

Spawn entries recorded on those rows: Storm 12, Ashfall 19, Cold Event 15, Any Weather 12, Rain/Mist 3, Clear Sky 9. Night-multiplier entries above 2.0 recorded on those rows: Storm 0, Ashfall 6, Cold Event 3, Any Weather 4, Rain/Mist 0, 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. That summary row records 11 corrupted variants and 0 event overrides. Its weather distribution cells are all zero. Wastewatcher has archetype Node Guardian but the node-guardian cell reads False. Both are left as recorded.

ID Name Archetype HP Creature ID Node guardian
MOB-065-01 Cinderhorn Large Herbivore 117 CR04481 False
MOB-065-02 Wastescale Swift Scout 62 CR04482 False

MOB-065-07 Wastewatcher Node Guardian 138 CR04487 False

Nodes

Nine network nodes are recorded. Four are positive and five are negative. The node profile records dominant NEGATIVE, density moderate, base respawn 117 minutes, and modifier 1.30x.

ID Name Type Location Signature resource growth Guardian
NODE_065_P01 Cinderfield Primary Anchor POSITIVE Located at the summit of the primary terrain feature, where K3V light exposure is maximum. Within the Ash Field zone. No None

NODE_065_P04 Cinderfield Light Node 4 POSITIVE Located near the biome's primary water source or geological anchor. Within the Calcified Hollow zone. No None
NODE_065_N01 Cinderfield Void Node 1 NEGATIVE Located in the deepest depression of the biome's terrain, where void energy pools. The primary hazard (Ash Inhalation) is most intense within 20m of this node. Yes — unresolved token {sig_res} within 40m Present
NODE_065_N02 Cinderfield Void Node 2 NEGATIVE Located at the most hazardous point of the primary hazard zone. The primary hazard (Ash Inhalation) is most intense within 20m of this node. Yes — unresolved token {sig_res} within 40m Present

NODE_065_N04 Cinderfield Void Node 4 NEGATIVE Located at the outer boundary of the biome, where it transitions to adjacent terrain. The primary hazard (Ash Inhalation) is most intense within 20m of this node. Yes — unresolved token {sig_res} within 40m Present
NODE_065_N05 Cinderfield Void Node 5 NEGATIVE Located within the node guardian's primary patrol circuit centre. The primary hazard (Ash Inhalation) is most intense within 20m of this node. Yes — unresolved token {sig_res} within 40m Present

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 four 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 B065, followed by the ground description and settlement names already on this page.

Recorded overview prompt: ABERNON game concept art, Biome 065 Cinderfield Wastes, K3V amber light, subtropical_arid environment, 0.68g low gravity, Ashen League 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 Cinderfield Wastes, biome 065, subtropical arid, under K3V amber light at 0.68g. A barren scorched biome where the land is covered in charred remnants of a once-vast forest. The cinder fields are kilometers deep in compressed ash. Below the ash layer ancient trees have calcified into mineral deposits of unusual purity. Terrain recorded as ash-covered interior desert. Scorched earth and ashfall. Wind carries grit that strips skin. Rare blooms emerge after ashfalls. Ash Inhalation is the recorded primary hazard. Ancient Cinder Crystal is the signature resource. Recorded colour palette: ochre, burnt sienna, as. The Ashen League settlement Cinderfield Settlement is visible, with Ash Field and Calcified Hollow 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, IMG01281 through IMG01300. Each uses this recorded stem, with the type name in place of the scene type: AAA game concept art, Cinderfield Wastes, subtropical arid biome, [type], scorched amber plains, ashfall dust, K3V sun, Ash Inhalation environmental hazard visible, Unreal Engine 5 quality, painterly, cinematic lighting, amber K3V star palette, alien yet familiar world aesthetic.
