Ground

A burning expanse shaped by the impact trails of meteorite falls. Crater rims form natural amphitheaters filled with star-stuff minerals. Creatures here consume star metal for its energy content and glow faintly from internal deposits.

Settlements

Starfell Settlement Faction Outpost 1500 F07 Ironveil Compact
Impact Crater Fields primary N/A F07 Ironveil Compact

Settlement pages: Impact Crater Fields, Star Metal Hollow, Starfell Settlement. Settlement rows on the faction civilization table for this biome also have pages: Starfell Base. All settlements: Settlements.

Factions present

Faction Where recorded
F07 Ironveil Compact Starting control. Controlling faction on every recorded settlement row. All seven NPC rows.
F03 Skyreach Covenant Contested. The faction table gives it a foothold here.

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. The faction table also gives F03 Skyreach Covenant a foothold here, so the biome is contested.

Resources

Full table with IDs and node details: B018 Starfell Verge/Resources.


Signature, primary, secondary, and minerals

These rows are recorded on the B018 resource table and were not in the gatherable list above.

ID Name Type Rarity
SIG-018 Meteor Crystal SIGNATURE Rare–Legendary
PRI-018 Starmetal Shard PRIMARY Uncommon–Rare
SEC-018 Crater Resin SECONDARY Common–Uncommon
MIN-COM-MET Meteorite Common Mineral Common
MIN-COM-STA Star Ore Common Mineral Common
MIN-COM-IMP Impact Slate Common Mineral Common
MIN-RARE-STA Star Crystal Rare Mineral Rare
MIN-RARE-MET Meteor Glass Rare Mineral Rare

Harvest

The harvestable index records counts for biome 018 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 Starfell Verge:

ID Name Harvestable
FLORA-CLOU-018 Cloudpetal No
FLORA-SKYM-018 Skymoss Yes
FLORA-SUMM-018 Summit Lichen No
FLORA-MOUN-018 Mountain Fern No
FLORA-WIND-018 Wind-Shear Grass No
FLORA-ALTI-018 Altitude Bloom No
FLORA-HIGH-018 High Spore Cluster No
FLORA-METE-018 Meteor Flower No

One named flora row is 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 Cloudpetal, Summit Lichen, Mountain Fern, Wind-Shear Grass, Altitude Bloom, High Spore Cluster, and Meteor Flower.

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

Difficulty T3_Heroic
Recommended party 4
Damage type Physical
Arena Impact Crater Fields
Arena description The boss encounter takes place in the heart of Starfell Verge's most extreme terrain feature. The arena is shaped by high mountain 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 Meteor-impact summit
Arena hazard Meteor Impact Strike
Unique material Wind Scale
Ground blurb The Wind Prowler the Ancient is the apex expression of Starfell Verge's ecosystem — a creature that has been shaped by high mountain conditions across centuries of adaptation in 0.68g. It is not simply dangerous. It is what Starfell Verge would be if the biome could choose to fight.

Weather

The atmosphere row records weather patterns Star Gale, Meteor Rain, and Heat. Those three names are not rows in the weather table. Six weather rows are recorded for this biome.

WX-018-ANY Any Weather ANY Weather-independent spawn — present in all conditions.
WX-018-RAIN Rain/Mist RAIN Rare moisture event. Suppresses primary hazard temporarily. Most comfortable traversal conditions.

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 five positive nodes and a guardian present on the four 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.

Quests

Four quests are recorded for this biome. Listed as id, title, layer, and giver id only. No quest prose is added here.

Favor

Starfell Verge has its own favor track. It is separate from faction reputation and does not change the ending.

  • Biome-line quests: 4. Each one gives +10 favor.
  • Finish all 4 to become Favored here (+20 bonus). Highest favor: 60.
  • Chain order: Q0159 → Q0160 → Q0161 → Q0162.
  • Favor is lost: −5 for each quest done for F03 Skyreach Covenant outside this biome. That faction contests this biome. Quests in this biome never cost favor here.
  • Skipping quests gives no favor.
