A large-stepped pool of steaming water fills the western end of these steamy rooms. Racks of towels line the wall near

<p>The Spellscar Desert may be desolate, but it's far from monotonous; its rolling wastes house numerous geographical anomalies, unusual communities both violent and benign, and safe landmarks (by Mana Wastes standards, at least). The following locations are among the points of interest travelers can find in the wasteland.</p>
<p><strong>Ancren's Estate:</strong> One of the largest and most recent structures in the Spellscar Desert is an estate built by the Nexian transmuter Ancren (deceased N male human transmuter 9). Predicting a moment of intense earth magic, Ancren raised the stone of the fortified estate in a single night. After the magic departed, the estate remained, and Ancren soon outfitted it with sumptuous luxuries from his homeland. Although the estate's walls were wide and tall, Ancren dramatically underestimated how appealing such a fortification would be to Spellscar inhabitants. He was besieged in his estate within a month, and a mutated gnoll warlord named Kagati finally fought through his guards and defenses. Now known as Kagati Wizard-Eater (@UUID[JournalEntry.pf2ap17905thespe.JournalEntryPage.05factionsandn00]{Factions and NPCS}), the gnoll has entrenched her position in Ancren's Estate and turned the courtyard into something of an open market welcoming wasteland denizens.</p>
<p><strong>Baffled Lowlands:</strong> This lowland is covered in a silt with a dazzlingly bright yellow hue like no other colors in the area. The silt is never more than a few inches deep and appears to prevent anything other than a few low-lying succulents from growing. A number of small, amber-colored lizards flit among the silt, occasionally snapping at tiny insects or drinking from pools of yellow-tinged water. Sapient creatures who spend a long time in the silty region report hearing strange susurrations and seeing strange movement within the yellow silt, as though the substance itself were alive. This appears to be an entirely mental effect, as outside observers witness neither sound nor movement. Those gripped by this hallucination, however, never forget the shuddering fear imparted by the yellow silt.</p>

<h2 class="no-toc split"><span class="keepme">Yellow Silt Curse</span><span class="keepme">Curse 6</span></h2>
<span class="link"><strong>CURSE ENCHANTMENT FEAR MAGICAL MENTAL</strong></span>
</div>
<p>You never forget the eerie song and frightening movements of the yellow silt. You need to make this save after each full day you spend in the Baffled Lowlands, increasing the save DC by 1 for each consecutive day.
</p><p><strong>Saving Throw</strong> @Check[will|dc:22|traits:curse,enchantment,fear,magical,mental|name:Crack Combination]</p>
<p><strong>Effect</strong> Whenever you gain the @Compendium[pf2e.conditionitems.TBSHQspnbcqxsmjL]{Frightened} condition while in the Baffled Lowlands, increase the value of that condition by 1 (maximum frightened 4). If you can see anything yellow when you become frightened, you are also @Compendium[pf2e.spells-srd.LiGbewa9pO0yjbsY]{Confusion} for 1 round.</p>

<img class="float-right" src="modules/pf2e-ap179-cradle-of-quartz/assets/art/PZO90179_MOTHER_DUNFEATHER.webp" alt=" " style="shape-outside: url('modules/pf2e-ap179-cradle-of-quartz/assets/art/PZO90179_MOTHER_DUNFEATHER.webp');">
<p><strong>Burning Stone Mesa:</strong> Rising 200 feet above the Gritty River, the sides of this daunting mesa feature stripes of red and blue rock in strikingly contrasting horizontal bands. The side against the river is steep, requiring successful @Check[athletics|dc:25|traits:action:climb|name:Climb] checks to @Compendium[pf2e.actionspf2e.pprgrYQ1QnIDGZiy]{Climb}; the DC is only @Check[athletics|dc:18|traits:action:climb|name:Climb] on the mesa's other sides. The top of the mesa has a stunning view and is covered with thorny berry bushes and ruins reduced to scattered stones. A group of @Compendium[pf2e.pathfinder-bestiary.AuCC04X2AO8oFN75]{Harpies} and their trained falcons control the mesa and scour a huge area around it to feed themselves and grow their flock. These harpies are insular and suspicious, as commanded by their elder, Mother Dunfeather (LN female harpy leader 6) but they're less bloodthirsty than most harpies and are willing to negotiate with explorers who bring them food and colorful cloth with which to decorate their wings.</p>
<p><strong>Cloudreaver Keep:</strong> Built to guard Alkenstar's northern border, Cloudreaver Keep stands on the Ustradi River and is considered by many to be the easternmost outpost of civilization in Alkenstar. This makes Cloudreaver Keep the westernmost point of the Spellscar Desert. Its soldiers don't venture far into the desert, preferring instead to act as sentries who repel monsters from populated lands. Despite the soldiers' disinclination to leave Cloudreaver Keep, the fortified structure is the best place from which to launch most expeditions into the desert.</p>
<p><strong>Desperation Arroyo:</strong> This broad cleft in the ground runs north to south near Burning Stone Mesa. Its sides are dangerously unstable, accounting in most places as a @Compendium[pf2e.hazards.gFt2nzQrVgXM9tmJ]{Treacherous Scree} hazard. Parts of the arroyo's bottom are exposed patches of the same blue stone as Burning Stone Mesa. Scoured by the winds that blow through the arroyo and covered with pebbles from past landslides, these streaks of blue stone often resemble pools of water. Several travelers have ventured into the arroyo, eager for a drink, and found themselves trapped within by the unstable walls. The bones of these travelers (as well as the treasures they were carrying when they died) lie scattered in the arroyo near the deceptively enticing stone.</p>
<p><strong>Dinosaur Uplands:</strong> This region features sharp hills made of thick sections of layered sedimentary rock pushed up in haphazard angles through tectonic instability millennia ago. The rock faces are thus a striation of colorful layers dotted with fossilized leaves and petrified bones. Many of these bones belong to creatures that perished during Earthfall or even earlier; dinosaur bones mostly, but also bones of massive reptilian humanoids who died alongside the dinosaurs as well. Word of these bones have recently reached the academic centers of the Inner Sea region, causing an influx of scholars and excavators eager to pull bones - and knowledge - from the rocks. These scholars, collectively called Boneseekers, vie with each other as they race to make significant discoveries.</p>
<p><strong>Fireball Mesa:</strong> 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. </p>
<p><strong>Gritty River:</strong> This river is the primary source of water for the Spellscar Desert, flowing east into the Obari Ocean. Once occupying a wide riverbed, the river is now unreliable. In the late summer through the fall, long stretches of the river dry up, leaving large sections of marshy sand between worn boulders. These sections function as @Compendium[pf2e.hazards.C6nFe8SCWJ8FmLOT]{Quicksand}. Where water remains, it becomes stagnant until the river flows again. Creatures and wasteland gangs jealously guard this water. Even in late winter and early spring, the river is generally low and difficult to traverse except in a canoe or on a barge. The water's color, for the sections and seasons that see a steady flow, is a curious turquoise due to strange minerals leached from the worn boulders along the river's length. Rumors hold that these boulders are leftover ammunition from a skirmish along the long border between Nex and Geb - though it's unclear which side launched the boulders or what the minerals imbuing the stony ammunition were intended to do. </p>
<p><strong>Screaming Fields:</strong> The only sandy waste within the Spellscar Desert, this area is dotted with stands of sagebrush and little else. Burrowing insects of startling size prowl the hills, fighting with each other in titanic battles that shake the sands and reshape the dunes. When these colossal creatures clash above the surface, which is thankfully rare, their screeches echo across the landscape and instill strange psychic rages in creatures that hear them.</p>
<p><strong>Sixfists:</strong> This coastal area in the northeast corner of the Spellscar Desert is the domain of calikang tribes. Although the tribes aren't enemies with each other, they have restrictive social structures that prevent them from outright cooperation with one another. Sixfists is what outsiders call this area, as the calikang tribes refer to their own tribal territories individually.</p>
<p><strong>Stargazer's Tower:</strong> At the southern edge of the Baffled Lowlands rises a single, massive sandstone column. Roughly rectangular, the tower rises 200 feet above the silty floor. Narrow, shallow stairs rise in a steady run around the column's exterior, their chipped and rounded edges demonstrating their ancient age. Near the top is a small cave containing etchings of various constellations. A successful @Check[nature|dc:25] or applicable Lore check reveals that these star charts are predominantly of the Cosmic Caravan, the zodiac in Golarion's sky, but they also incorporate specific celestial events. These events aren't concurrent; for example, the meteors of Earthfall are depicted, but so are much more recent meteorological impacts. Other, unknown symbols might represent cosmological events yet to occur. Characters performing divination rituals within this cave gain a +1 circumstance bonus to their ritual skill checks or a +2 bonus if the divination ritual is connected to prophetic events heralded in the stars. </p>

<p><strong>Stonewatcher Ridges:</strong> The southeast section of the Spellscar contains some of the most difficult yet spectacular features in the desert. Four nearly parallel ridges of sandstone pillars run through the area, separated by strips of uneven ground awash in sand and gravel. Bands of red, orange, and tan cover the naturally carved pillars. Most are connected, the thinner sandstone forming walls between the thicker pillars. Scrambling over these slippery ridges requires a successful @Check[athletics|dc:30|traits:action:climb|name:Climb] to @Compendium[pf2e.actionspf2e.pprgrYQ1QnIDGZiy]{Climb}. Most creatures traverse the channels between, though this can make them easy pickings for those who hunt at either end of the ridges. A large group of earth elementals revere the sandstone ridges with religious fervor. Anyone disturbing the ridges - including climbing over them without taking exceptional care to avoid scarring or chipping them - risks an attack by a small army of earth elementals, but those traveling between the ridges are generally safe. A xorn known as Erosion's Escalation (N xorn @Compendium[pf2e.npc-gallery.W9lhKuDeS670LzLx]{Prophet} 12) leads these elementals in their strange veneration.</p>

Open} with a successful @Check[athletics|dc:20|traits:action:force-open|name:Force Open the Rack] check, but
doing so risks breaking the delicate weapons; for each rack so destroyed, a player character must attempt a
@Check[reflex|dc:20|name:Save the Weapon] save. On a failure, the weapon in the rack becomes broken.

The walls of this room are covered in wooden racks filled with rifles, pistols, and other lethal weaponry. An
auspicious wooden chest covered completely in gold leaf sits against the eastern wall, next to an equally
unusual-looking clockwork construct armed with built-in guns. In the southwestern corner, two corridors head west and
south. The southern corridor ends in a stout wooden door.

<h2 class="no-toc">F1. Smithy</h2>
<p>
An unassuming workshop operated during the day by Sharkosa's trusted minion Koreole
(@UUID[JournalEntry.pf2ap17904theste.JournalEntryPage.04forge000000000]{area F11}) obscures the entrance to the Gilded
Halls. A player character can locate the trapdoor hidden under a dusty carpet in the corner of the smithy (marked with
an "F" on the map) with a successful @Check[perception|dc:20] check.
</p>
<p>
If the characters arrive late at night, the blacksmith Koreole has retired to the hideout below (area F11), leaving
the smithy unattended.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Alarm</strong>: The trapdoor rings alarms in the complex below if opened without being disarmed. A character
who @Compendium[pf2e.actionspf2e.BlAOM2X92SI6HMtJ]{Seeks} around the trapdoor and succeeds at a
@Check[perception|dc:25|traits:secret,action:seek] check notices a hidden catch on the trapdoor's handle that
disables the alarm. Opening the trapdoor without pressing the catch sounds alarms in areas

<h2 class="no-toc">F10. Vault</h2>
<p>
The door is made of iron (Hardness 18, HP 72, BT 36) and locked with a
@Compendium[pf2e.equipment-srd.byKAxLyN7AXySmw7]{Good Lock} (requiring five successful
@Check[thievery|dc:30|traits:action:pick-a-lock|name:Pick a Lock] checks to pick). Only Sharkosa has the key to
the vault.
</p>
<p class="read-aloud">
Shelves line the walls of this small stone chamber. Each shelf contains a number of small boxes, coffers, and
containers, each engraved with a golden symbol and rigidly organized. A small wheelbarrow leans against the wall near
the door. Several larger chests sit on the floor under the shelving.
</p>
<p>
The Gilded Gunners keep their most precious treasures here, as well as the raw ore and gold bullion they use to gild
their namesake weapons. The coffers contain gang members' personal shares, while the two chests on the floor are used
to store gold and lead items, respectively (to be melted down and crafted into items in
@UUID[JournalEntry.pf2ap17904theste.JournalEntryPage.04forge000000000]{area F11}). All coffers and chests are locked

<p>
<strong>Treasure</strong>: @UUID[Actor.xGicqx2ttWS4tZim]{Coffers} @UUID[Actor.QPNpUkJHtYq5NlCL]{Vault Chest}</p>
<p>The locked coffers contain 120 gp worth of gems, precious
jewelry, silver coins, and other valuables. The gold inlay on the coffers is worth an additional 20 gp. The chest of
lead has little value except for making bullets or fishing weights, but the other @Actor[QPNpUkJHtYq5NlCL]{chest}
contains 300 gp in gold items: rings and other jewelry, candlesticks, religious symbols, and even a few raw chunks of
gold ore.
