This large, pale mesa gets its name from the pattern of scorch marks along its sides. The area attracts mana storms on a frequent yet unpredictable basis, and its storms most often manifest with blasts of fire that make for dramatic displays visible from far away. A few canny wasteland dwellers, including the Children of the Fireball, live in the lee of the mesa, as they’ve learned that the mana storms aggregate at the mesa’s top, making the region at its foot relatively tame.
Children of the Fireball:
This pack of overzealous firebugs and arsonists is among the most desperate and violent of the Spellscar gangs. The so-called Children of the Fireball live in caves and huts in the shelter of Fireball Mesa, where they purport to worship the erratic fiery displays that coruscate atop the rocky tableland. They tend to raid other wasteland dwellers and assault desert travelers using alchemist’s fire and other incendiary devices of their own creation, insisting that their violent acts of banditry are in fact displays of religious reverence.
