Playing in a Golarian/ Rise of the Runelords game. I am playing an Elf Wizard and I want the Energy Resistance (Fire) replacement racial trait. My brother (the DM) says I need to find a volcano or volcanic area to be from to justify this-- any locations that will work?
If you worship Calistria there is a small island in the Shackles that is home to a bunch of elves who hate every non elf. The Shackles is a great little technically volcanic area. (Last book details a volcano with a slumbering titan in it for use after the AP ends)
Thank you Alleran, I work nights and didn't have my books in front of me. There are plenty of other areas such as the World's End Mountains. And if memory serves me correctly there is a dragon who lives in a volcano in both the shackles and osirion, both are red dragons. So really it looks like there are volcanoes everywhere.
If this is Rise of the Runelords, try the Cinderlands. It's in Varisia and it filled with fire and ash. More details about it are in the Curse of the Crimson Throne book.
And you don't have to play a xenophobic elf and have the party hate you :)
