Corona is a major trade bubble in the Burning Archipelago that is dominated by the Brass Bazaar, a thriving and sometimes dangerous market full of traders from the Plane of Fire.

Geography

Corona is connected to the bubbles of Fireside, Asanatown and Scintillatrix. For some reason, this bubble's solar shield at the top and bottom is weak, allowing the solar heat and radiation to leak inside: the average temperature is 105º F, and most humanoids require twice or three times as much water and are more vulnerable to sunburns. As a result, Corona is hard to live in and dangerous to visit without adequate protection.

Government

Because of the power outages, radiation and unpredictable hot spots, Corona is difficult to police. For the most part, it is anarchic and only barely controlled by the various groups that have interests there. These include the bustling Brass Bazaar, the regimented Temple of the First Ones, the freewheeling Corona Artifact Divers, and countless other small groups.

Inhabitants

Despite (or because) of its lack of civil authority, Corona is home to numerous criminals and other ne'er-do-wells who fell through its cracks and have to survive through unconventional ways. Without building standards, its architecture is also a chaotic mess.
