The Cimmerian Depths

The Cimmerian Depths of Valynduur Wikia is a supramagical maelstrom located in the Frozen Sea. It periodically erupts, bombarding the planet with what mages theorize are void energies and magical radiation, but little is known about how the phenomenon works.

It's effects, however, are plain to see. The emissions from the storm destabilize mana-channelling ley lines, altering weather patterns and even the psionic essences of sentient beings. The Maelstrom is believed to be responsible for the evolution of Koscor's notorious ice-pixies and the frigid arctic climate. Certain far-thinking climages also believe that the Malestrom's energies are partially responsible for the unexpected severity of the Phistinan Civil War as well as contributing to the ecological holocaust that has befallen the southern half of the continent, but conventional science claims that is simply preposterous.
