The Razelands

The Razelands refers to a large stretch of land in Intor that is devoid of all life, and really anything that supports life. No monsters, no animals, no bacteria even; nothing can survive in this wasteland, meaning travelers have to pack heavily if they intend on passing through the area.
== Description ==
The area is very dry, devoid of water and life. The ground varies from cracked, hard soil to blankets of ash and soot. There are also patches of dried, petrified grass that has not decomposed for thousands of years. Petrified animal carcasses can also be found here, having dried out over time and never decomposing, they are alike to statues, remaining in about the same state as they were when they died. There may even corpses strewn about that have not been removed since their death. How recently they died can be estimated depending on the condition of the corpse and any personal items they have on them.
== History ==
During Empire G's "Holy War" to drive out the so-called "hellspawn races" and create a "world for humanity," one of the methods they employed in invaded territories was mass razing and poisoning of the land in order to kill off its livability in order to starve out the inhabitants. This however, would backfire on them as it made it impossible for them to use the land for themselves, and also prevented their own citizens from settling the land that they were promised with this campaign.
Empire G went the extra mile to make sure that anything and everything would be killed and have the life sucked out of them, metaphorically and perhaps literally. It did not take long before all life, including microbial life were completely wiped out, leaving it a dry, uninhabitable wasteland, and it has continued to be so, thousands of years later.
Curiously, RUC-controlled territory in the Peninsula during the Peninsula War would experience this very same thing. Thankfully, the Resistance beat back the RUC quickly enough and were able to carry out restoration efforts before any permanent damage could take effect, leading to the area to become lush wetlands once again.
