Morrowind biomes & weather conditions 1/5 ➵ ashlands and ashstorms
The Ashlands are the dry and inhospitable areas surrounding Red Mountain to the north and west. The Ashlands are inhospitable to most life, but some creatures have managed to adapt to the harsh terrain and climate. These include mainly Guars, Nix-Hounds, Cliff Racers, and Alit. Some plants, like the Trama Root and Ash Yam, manage to flourish in this desolate area. Nomad, known as Ashlanders also call this region home. Hazardous ash storms are frequent due to Red Mountain's volcanic activity. Blight is common in this region. The Ashblight emanates from Red Mountain in the form of Ashstorms. These storms are reddish dust storms that carry the blight and have extremely high winds associated with them.
