Onsen

In the valley that forms the Frigid Tundra, there is a collection of hot springs called the Onsen. Nestled at the foot of the mountains on the Duskward side, this is the only place in the Frigid Tundra where water flows freely.

Visiting

The water is scalding hot, and humanoids can only be immersed for a few minutes before their skin begins to burn.
Show spoiler
Mechanically, after 5 minutes, players must make a DC 12 con save. The DC goes up by 2 every subsequent 5 minutes.

The water from the springs is rich in minerals, and regular baths in it can have healing properties, especially with muscle aches and injured tendons.
Most of the time, the Onsen are used by the Elladrin of the Fortress of Frozen Tears, but occassionally other denizens of the Frigid Tundra will make use. Notably, a bath in the Onsen is part of the preparation of The Vo marriage rituals.
