Environment
Eremis Stone says of Blightshore, "Creatures that come from there don't come in their... normal state. It's a place of twisted things." He says the Circle of Beasts draws some creatures from far-away Blightshore, and his theory is that the gorgon they faced was one such creature.

Blightshore's environment is marked by strange arcane curses, relics of the Calamity, and the land reflects this. There are small floating islands of land, ever-burning forests, gravitational anomolies, and poisonous colonies of fungus throughout the region. Even the weather is strange, with winds that carry constant lightning, maddening mists, corrosive rain, and intermittent breaks into the Ethereal Plane.

Society
Much of Blightshore has been abandoned, but there are fragmented settlements. The Ebonglass Massif is home to a kobold clan known as Fangs of the Worm, who worship an ancient artifact from Eiselcross that, unbeknowns to them, holds a tissue sample of Quajath. Meanwhile, refugees and outlaws from Xhorhas often find their way to the ruins of Ghor Veles, though the population is transient.

There are two permanent settlements in Blightshore: One is New Haxon, an outpost of the Dwendalian Empire run by the Cerberus Assembly, which is also the home to many survivors of the fall of Draconia. The second is Rotthold, a diverse if somewhat anarchic city along the coast.

One notable quality of Blightshore society is the minority population of Hollow Ones, people resurrected by the lingering magic of Blightshore, but without their full soul.

History
At least one Luxon beacon was found 700 years ago near the base of the Penumbra Range on the Blightshore side.
