Even when all’s quiet, certain types of land can make things devilishly difficult for your adventurers! Geologist/GM Scott Rice-Snow describes subtle ways to challenge them using geomorphology.

We’ll discuss ways that the landscape setting itself naturally imposes debilitating conditions on players (dazed, immobilized, deafened, etc,) and explore the great variety of settings where mere walking is a difficulty. Scott Rice-Snow is a DM and author of 'Landscapes for Writers and Game Masters: Building Authentic Natural Terrain into Imagined Worlds', available from McFarland Press. Scott and Jennifer Rice-Snow host ground4inspiration.net, an online geomorphology resource for GMs, writers, and travelers.
