with metal literally flowing out of the ground and a strong south wind, its any blacksmith paradise. in durustera a metals over all weight is equal to its normal weight plus a percentage of, -.0001646x². where x is its mass in inches², and the percentage is dependent on the proximity towards the center of the biome. how ever as a substitute for proximity towards the middle of the biome, a objects electrical charge can increase the effect up to, and past 100%. there is little to no precipitation in durusterra. how ever the ground is flooded with aquifers, the lack of precipitation is caused by a constant wind that blows in from the north causing most moisture to be dropped off directly before entering the land. the atmosphere oftenly sparks as large clusters of metal float about like clouds.

Sub-Biomes
Smiths Forest- the only plant life are tall water pines. the ground is covered in splash grass. the dirt is soft and easily moved. below that is approximately two hundred feet of gravel followed by rock.

Durusterrian Desert- this biome is populated by massive sand dunes marching circles through the dry hot barren wastes. its ecosystem lives predominately just below the surface. this terrain can be difficult to traverse due to multiple problems, first of witch being the sand contains a large amount of magnetized particles making utilizing a compass difficult, as well as the only major terrain features being large shifting sand dunes that can cover up most objects in the distance.

Durusterraian Heights- large plateau’s of hard rock scatter the land, these are formed by the wind that softens and smooths the tallest parts of the land, then geothermic activity causes them to crack and be pushed up. some plateaus are populated by shaking oaks. the land has an occasional taking tree scattered about. most minerals have been lifted from the land. small shrubbery dots the dry and barren landscape below.

Gridshell Desert- comprised of large lattice like structures that inter weave and form the entire land scape with a barren sand pit below. they are formed of iron that has been sheared away by the fierce winds above that them magnetically attache in long strains and rust in place.
