Hi everyone, and welcome back to the Finder\u2019s Archives.<\/em><\/p>\n

In this column, we take some of the lands from Magic: The Gathering and turn them into something you can use for your fantasy games.<\/em><\/p>\n

The stats given in each entry assumes that you\u2019re using Pathfinder 2 for your games, but they can easily be converted over into any fantasy system. This week we take in the view at the Bant Panorama.<\/em><\/p>\n

Bant Panorama<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Bant Panorama is one of the most breathtaking views in the world, if not the multiverse. It is a wholesome natural beauty that stretches as far as the eye can see, in all directions, and the air feels not only fresh but refreshing. It carries with it the sweet smell of early spring, and it somehow always feels like the first few minutes after sunrise, even during the darkest of nights.<\/p>\n

Lay of the Land<\/strong><\/p>\n

The bant panorama sits on the shores of a great lake. From the edges of that lake, the keen-eyed can see a vast forest that stretches out in the north, while the blue waters of the lake eventually give way to a towering mountain-island in the middle of the lake itself. The mountain is of unusual height, and its peak almost breaches the atmosphere into space, and the top is covered in sparkling white snow.<\/p>\n

The waters of the lake are fresh and drinkable. The fish that live in the lake are lively, and eat well whenever a fisherman hooks a worm, and most have grown to sizes rarely seen elsewhere. Even the smallest of normal fish seem to have gigantic cousins that live here, and while most aren\u2019t predatory, their sheer size can still pose a danger to the unwary. Predators are few and far between, but those that are there are extremely dangerous when compared to their normal brethren. The biggest fish in the lake is an ancient bass known locally as \u201cBig Bad Barry\u201d which is large enough to swallow a small rowboat in a single bite. Thankfully Barry only seems to appears once or twice per year, and rarely goes after fishermen.<\/p>\n

Dangers<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cBig Bad Barry\u201d .is the greatest natural danger in the area. He is a gigantic bass, grown to the size of a whale. (Use the stats for a Megalodon for 5e<\/a>, PF1<\/a>, and PF2<\/a>). While he is not typically dangerous to most creatures and fisherman, Barry seems to have developed a taste for elves. Any elf entering the waters near the bant panorama has a 10% chance of attracting Barry.<\/p>\n

Of more immediate concern to most visitors is the combined druid and knightly order known as the Order of the Stag. They\u2019re sworn to protect the bant panorama from intrusion and defilement. Any visitor that makes camp in the area, especially if they have a campfire, is bound to have a visit from one of these vigilant defenders, who cautions them to take care while they\u2019re in the area and make sure that their impact is as small as possible. Strangely, they refuse to let any rangers camp in the area, and none are part of their order. Any rangers who pass through the area are immediately escorted through the area and told to stay out. There are reports of rangers who\u2019ve disobeyed this order or tamed animals in the area. All these reports end with the ranger going missing without a trace.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
