The Gut Extreme
They call it the Gut because the wasteland digests whatever wanders in.
A grim region near the swamp, dense with Beak Things and Cannibal pressure. A corridor to the deep east.
Environment
A dark, broken region bordering the swamp and the eastern wilds — muddy, overgrown and oppressive.
Threats
Beak Things den here in dangerous numbers, and Cannibal and bandit pressure from neighbouring regions bleeds in. A genuinely deadly crossing.
Loot & Resources
Creature loot and a route toward eastern endgame regions. Little reason to linger beyond passing through.
Best Uses
A travel corridor for strong squads heading deeper east, and Beak Thing hunting for those equipped for it.
