Mount Moffat

Nothing lives within 20 miles of this constantly belching volcano, which at 13,043 feet is unusually large for a cinder cone volcano. Mount Moffat continuously spews forth ash, toxic gases, and occasional lava, but its activity level presents a geological anomaly. It is too far from The Molten Flow or The Spine of Fire to be associated with those active volcanoes, which also differ in their structure and output. While the mountain could be a hotspot, scholars suspect the most likely explanation for its existence lies with an unnatural or supernatural cause. The general belief is that something stirs beneath the mountain, and it is likely associated with the forces that created the Stoneheart Mountains in the first place. The few souls who explored the mountain’s inner workings found bizarre runes etched onto the stone walls and upside-down humanoid skeletons suspended from the ceiling by strange filaments wrapped around their ankles. Not surprisingly, these accounts dissuaded others from visiting the rocky behemoth. The tales date back several centuries. Therefore, it is impossible to tell whether the carvings and the killings represented current activities or were left behind by past civilizations.
