East Bounders

The Bounders (both East and West) are composed of massive limestone hills and mountains heavily spotted with caves which serve as nesting areas for Gryphons. All humanoids avoid the areas.

The East and West Bounders (see The East Bounders/The West Bounders) are simply the regions that "bound" in Gryphon Valley.
It is a rocky mountainous region with little plant or animal life. The peaks of the mountains region rise sharply to a height of approximately eight-thousand feet, are cold and snow covered most of the year with the upper vales rocky and lifeless.
The main features of interest in these regions though are the countless caves and openings that fill the region.
It is unknown how so many caves came to be in these areas, but most believe they were not naturally formed. Because of the great abundance of the caves in these regions, the Gryphons of the Valley have countless places to choose for their homes.
