Arena {'location': 'Frost Thorn Fields', 'description': "The boss encounter takes place in the heart of Frostthorn Caldera's most extreme terrain feature. The arena is shaped by polar glacial 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': 124, 'special_terrain': 'Thermal shock caldera', 'hazard_active': 'Thermal Shock'}
Ground blurb The Arctic Prowler the Ancient is the apex expression of Frostthorn Caldera's ecosystem — a creature that has been shaped by polar glacial conditions across centuries of adaptation in 0.68g. It is not simply dangerous. It is what Frostthorn Caldera would be if the biome could choose to fight.
