SECTOR A'S ENVIRONMENT
Once this has been compiled into Reijin's guide, this post will be removed.
Sector A was a harsh one, indeed. It seemed almost as if no natural creature could live there, lest suffer a cruel death by nature?s hand. Mountains dominated a massive region of the sector, their caps hidden by the layer of grey strata that obstructed a blue sky during the day and the stars and moon during the night. Winds rushing incessantly through the area, biting the skin like an unsatisfying itch. In some areas, it was even worse, showing only ruthlessness to those unfortunate, or rather, unwise enough to cover their appendages, resulting in incurable frostbite and indescribable pain. This was seen most usually in Sector A?s most uninhabitable area, a mountain chain in the northern sector ? the Frozen Spine. In the center of the sector lay its most infamous area ? Icedawn Lake. It was a body of water that stretched on for an incredible distance that was ten percent of the sector?s total area, and every single drop of it lay crystallized from the austere cold. Rumors were abroad that only the vilest of creatures could find the place habitable, and only unmatched warriors or pure fools would venture there.
However, there were some areas where things were not so bleak. Grasslands (or plains) could be seen from time to time, though never seen in the northern most region or the southwest and east borders. Pitfalls and steep hills laced these lands, gargantuan black boulders of some seemingly unbreakable mineral completing the regions. It was clear that volcanic eruptions from long ago had scarred the lands, greenery finally finding its way into nature?s hand. The largest concentration of grasslands could only be found south of Icedawn Lake, in the corner bordering Sector?s C and D. Though no reasoning could be construed, any person seeking the easiest, though still callous, environment would seek it no place else.
Still, in the recesses of the Frozen Spine lay three bases. Two remain uninhabited, the third becoming a base of operations for Synex troops. Though, in amidst the wind and snow, the other two wait?
