Cerulean Five Oasis (Patreon)

A few weeks ago Andrew Downs pleasantly surprised me with a very nice email about his gaming group's adventures in the UVG, and with tales of a small town he invented for them. After a bit of back and forth, I've decided to add the small town of Cerulean Five Oasis onto a side branch of the Low Road and the High, as a place a group of heroes could call home - if they so wished.

Here it is, along with a few PCs, a few watering holes, and a few hooks. It's a bit different from Andrew's, but he said, "do what thou wilt," so I didst. Without further ado: Oasis.

Cerulean Five is a thriving stop, just a day’s trudge south of the Low Road and the High. Dusters, cutters, mercos and merchos rest in the oasis en route to the Plantation of the Porcupines, south of the Plasteel Slag. Dilettantes and aristos often go out of their way just to visit the fabled Sky Well.

Ah, the Sky Well, the heart of Cerulean Five. It pulls water from the very air itself, a network of condensers tunneled into the petrified hulk of a gigantic cactacean landcoral and powered by the grumbling crystal machine, Bessergott VI, that pulls energy from the fast stars as they flitter overhead. St. Wavy, grizzled veteran of some Limbo War, tends to Bessergott and keeps the waters flowing.

Five ancient fountains of porphyr and red coral burble with the cerulean-tinged water of the Sky Well and a ring-worked fortified encampment of dead landcoral slabs has over time grown into a small safehold against the mind-blasting hardships of the steppe trails.
