Mt. Foulbreath

Location: divided between the Duchy of Drazenfel in the Kingdom of Kasteban and the Archduchy of Delternas and the Barony of the Eskard Pass.
Height: 12,125 ft.
Mt. Foulbreath is an active stratovolcano in the Adamantine Range bordering the north of the Trynsern Peninsula. The volcano anchors the southwestern corner of the range. It is within 30 miles of the Raystwar River, and has changed the course of that river over the years. The city of Drazenfel is about 38 miles of the peak, almost directly off of the slopes. It is 83 miles from Delternas, and is generally visible on the northeastern horizon on good days. It is 100 miles from Trynser City, and is visible from tall buildings, but for most is hidden behind the Northwall.
Despite the wishes to many Imperial enemies to the contrary, the volcano is too distant (though still uncomfortably close) for anything but the hugest eruptions to threaten the river, much less Trynser City. The volcano CAN threaten the town of Shardan and the Gipiton owned road through Escard Pass.
The area around here is geologically active, Trynser City being struck by an earthquake in 1736. There are other volcanoes, as well as geysers, hot springs and such.
The volcano erupts violently every several hundred years or so. The last major period of eruption was around 1295, at the time of Reginald Galderon's Reconquest of Trynser. The ash cloud blackened the skies above Trynser City.
The high mountain is covered with snow even in the hottest summers, and there are those in the business of running frozen blocks of snow and ice down to Delternas and Trynser City. Otherwise, the upper slopes are wealthy in pine trees and the lower slopes rich in soil for growing.
