Welcome to Lavaland.
 
Welcome to Lavaland.
  
=== Wildlife ===
+
To learn more on lavaland, see [[Shaft Miner|Miner]]
You aren't the only ones living on Lavaland, there are other creatures who dwell deep within.
 
  
==== Non-sapient Wildlife ====
+
=Hazards=
  
The usual, creatures going around killing you. If you want to learn about them, go [[Shaft Miner#The Wildlife|here]], but usually...
+
Lavaland is full of natural hazards. Ash Storms are the most prominent hazard, these storms occur on a regular basis and will deal constant and heavy burn damage to anyone unfortunate enough to be exposed to the storm, fortunately you will get a warning moments prior to a ash storm's arrival, giving you time to seek shelter.  
  
Ash Storm Proof? Yes.
+
Lava presents itself as the next most common hazard, walking into lava will deal massive burn damage to you. Even worse, the wildlife are immune to lava and can wade freely into it. However lava is very obvious and thus easy to avoid.
  
Breathe? Yes.
+
The final threat are chasms, these are rare but extremely deadly and hard to spot. Walking into one will instantly kill you as you fall to your death! Watch your step.
  
Hostile? Yes.
+
=Gases and Pressure=
 +
Lavaland has a random gas mix every round, requiring you to use internals. The pressure is low enough to give you a pressure warning HUD icon, but it's not low enough to deal actual pressure damage. The temperature is random as well but stays in levels safe for humans. Lavaland gasses can be mined if you have an [[RPD]] and set up scrubbers and set up an air alarm outside on a constructed wall, from there the scrubbers outside set up by you can be accessed via hacking the air alarm. Rare lavaland gasses can include [[Guide_to_Atmospherics#Plasma|Plasma]], [[Guide_to_Atmospherics#BZ|BZ]], [[Guide_to_Atmospherics#Miasma|Miasma]] and [[Guide_to_Atmospherics#Water_Vapor|Water Vapor]]. Common lavaland gasses include [[N2O]] or [[CO2]].
  
==== Podmen ====
+
=Sentient Life=
 +
Lavaland is surprisingly full of other sentient (read: playable) lifeforms, of varying hostility.
  
[[File:Podman.png|40px]]
+
* [[Ashwalkers]]: A tribe of hostile Lizardmen that worship tendrils. Ashwalkers don't need to breathe but they can't use guns or wear shoes, so they use spears to try to fight off NT's [[Shaft Miner|miners.]]
Podpeople are created by a mad <strike>scientist</strike> botanist, and they were sent into the cosmos to help other races. They crashed on Lavaland, and try to keep their spirits up, waiting for anything that won't kill them. They work in a pod with a basic setup for botany, but can not withstand the harsh outside.
 
  
Ash Storm Proof? No.
+
* Lifebringers: A group of [[Podman|podmen]] who live in a seed vault equipped with advanced hydroponics equipment. This seed vault is, unfortunately, very well lit, and Podmen involuntarily eat light. As a result, these guys often get really fat unless they are [[Byond the impossible|actively running around doing botany,]] in which case you might find healing here, or bioweapons.
  
Breathe? No.
+
* [[Golem|Golems]]: A band of Golems who arrived by ship that live by their creed of doing whatever, because the original lavaland golem was told by his creator, "Yeah, go do whatever."
  
Hostile? No.
+
* Stranded hermits: Individuals who arrived by escape pod and live in a makeshift shelter. If they're found and taken up to the station, they'll probably get [[Robust|robusted]] by [[security]] for being escape-pod-using fucking cowards.
  
==== Free Golems ====
+
* Beach bums: Dudebros who chill in a beach biodome. They have their own bartender.
  
[[File:Golem.png|40px]]
+
* Lavaland Syndicate: Syndicate agents operating a comms base on lavaland. Their base is literally a fully functional station on lavaland - they have their own [[Cargo|cargo bay]], [[bar]], [[armory]], <strike>warehouse of T4 parts</strike> [[science]] department, [[medbay]], [[chemistry]] lab, and even a goddamn [[virology]] lab. The kicker is, they can fuck with the station's telecomms, remotely saying shit over radio/PDA message FOR people, until they get found by miners and <strike>looked at from a distance because the station can't figure out how to get over the lava moat</strike> raided by security officers.
Golems left home after they were created by a mad <strike>botanist</strike> scientist, named the Liberator. He said wise words to the golems, to indicate their every move to this day: ''"Yeah, do whatever."'' They work inside a crashed shuttle and can create golems by using a lot of metal and 10 sheets of any refined ore after that.
 
 
 
Ash Storm Proof? No.
 
 
 
Breathe? Yes.
 
 
 
Hostile? No.
 
 
 
==== Ashwalkers ====
 
 
 
'''Picture''' Ashwalkers are hunters, fighting for the Necropolis at the north of lavaland. They hunt the creatures, and the creatures
 
 
'''Needed''' hunt them. They are also mad that you guys are invading their homeworld so do not try to talk with them, they are hostile. They have a special necropolis tentacle that takes sacrifices and makes Ashwalker eggs in return.
 
 
 
Ash Storm Proof? No.
 
 
 
Breathe? Yes.
 
 
 
Hostile? Yes.
 
 
 
==== Veterinary ====
 
 
 
[[File:Generic_virologist.png|40px]]
 
It was a normal day working offworld as a startup vet company, when all the sudden they were teleported into a hellish Lava-filled planet, along with two patients, a mouse and a cow. Damn [[The Syndicate#Cybersun Industries|bluespace terrorists]]. Will they survive? Will the mouse ever recover from it's cancer? Should you really be feeding the mouse cyanide for chemotherapy? It's up to you.
 
 
 
Ash Storm Proof? No.
 
 
 
Breathe? No.
 
 
 
Hostile? No.
 
 
 
==== Prisoners ====
 
 
 
[[File:generic security.png|40px]]
 
Prisoners were going to a high security prison, where they keep the [[Traitor|worst]] [[Cult|of]] [[Wizard|the]] [[Changeling|worst]], for crimes unspoken, when suddenly, fate gave them a second chance. Next thing they knew, they were on a crashed ship, on a hostile moon, with only each other for help. Easily the hardest to survive, they have no tools and no way to heal, even the vets had an easier time.
 
 
 
Ash Storm Proof? No.
 
 
 
Breathe? No.
 
 
 
Hostile? Maybe, see notes for reasoning.[[Lavaland#Additional Notes|1]]

Somewhere, in the wastes of Lavaland, there is a great fortress. It wouldn't be wise to even attempt to enter, though [[Clown|no sane man would do that, right?]] Seriously, though, don't knock on the door of the Necropolis unless you want to die really fast. Like, almost instantly, really.

"Hey, this isn't the asteroid!"

Lavaland is the new primary workplace for Shaft Miners, not to be confused with another dangerous plasma rich area. After exhausting all the hostile wildlife minerals on the asteroid, Nanotrasen scoured space around the station for a new source for that sweet, sweet Plasma. Unluckily for you, they found a young planet almost completely covered in lava and a host of deadly creatures. By that, we mean there are literal real fucking dragons roaming around. Did we mention the ash storms? There are ash storms as well. Don't forget to grab a bluespace shelter capsule. You're definitely gonna want one of those. Welcome to Lavaland.

To learn more on lavaland, see Miner

Hazards

Lavaland is full of natural hazards. Ash Storms are the most prominent hazard, these storms occur on a regular basis and will deal constant and heavy burn damage to anyone unfortunate enough to be exposed to the storm, fortunately you will get a warning moments prior to a ash storm's arrival, giving you time to seek shelter.

Lava presents itself as the next most common hazard, walking into lava will deal massive burn damage to you. Even worse, the wildlife are immune to lava and can wade freely into it. However lava is very obvious and thus easy to avoid.

The final threat are chasms, these are rare but extremely deadly and hard to spot. Walking into one will instantly kill you as you fall to your death! Watch your step.

Gases and Pressure

Lavaland has a random gas mix every round, requiring you to use internals. The pressure is low enough to give you a pressure warning HUD icon, but it's not low enough to deal actual pressure damage. The temperature is random as well but stays in levels safe for humans. Lavaland gasses can be mined if you have an RPD and set up scrubbers and set up an air alarm outside on a constructed wall, from there the scrubbers outside set up by you can be accessed via hacking the air alarm. Rare lavaland gasses can include Plasma, BZ, Miasma and Water Vapor. Common lavaland gasses include N2O or CO2.

Sentient Life

Lavaland is surprisingly full of other sentient (read: playable) lifeforms, of varying hostility.

  • Ashwalkers: A tribe of hostile Lizardmen that worship tendrils. Ashwalkers don't need to breathe but they can't use guns or wear shoes, so they use spears to try to fight off NT's miners.
  • Lifebringers: A group of podmen who live in a seed vault equipped with advanced hydroponics equipment. This seed vault is, unfortunately, very well lit, and Podmen involuntarily eat light. As a result, these guys often get really fat unless they are actively running around doing botany, in which case you might find healing here, or bioweapons.

  • Stranded hermits: Individuals who arrived by escape pod and live in a makeshift shelter. If they're found and taken up to the station, they'll probably get robusted by security for being escape-pod-using fucking cowards.
  • Beach bums: Dudebros who chill in a beach biodome. They have their own bartender.
  • Lavaland Syndicate: Syndicate agents operating a comms base on lavaland. Their base is literally a fully functional station on lavaland - they have their own cargo bay, bar, armory, warehouse of T4 parts science department, medbay, chemistry lab, and even a goddamn virology lab. The kicker is, they can fuck with the station's telecomms, remotely saying shit over radio/PDA message FOR people, until they get found by miners and looked at from a distance because the station can't figure out how to get over the lava moat raided by security officers.
