Deaddrop Mountain rises alongside the Bleeding Mountains, just north of the Devil Peaks—a solitary massif whose western face shears away into a sheer drop of several hundred meters. The Nydor mark it on no official survey—the cliff provides its own label, and what needs naming already has a name.

The drop is useful. Emblydium has used the base of the cliff as a disposal site for generations: equipment too damaged to repair, enemies too dangerous to ransom, and whatever the Nydor prefer neighboring states not examine closely. The rock face is nearly impossible to scale from below and rarely attempted from above by anyone unfamiliar with the descent.
