Pasocada Basin

The Pasocada Basin was a harsh land far north of the rest of Maztica, with which it had little contact. It was, accordingly, very different culturally.

Geography
Defined as the region drained by the Pasocada River and its tributaries, the Basin was a desert land, riddled with gullies and canyons. Buttes and mesas towered over it, and it was surrounded by mountains. The Pasocada Basin was a rocky brush desert, and home to many plants and animals (such as coyotes, bison, and antelope) despite its relative lack of water. The mountain slopes were covered in coniferous forests.

Inhabitants
The Pasocada Basin was home to humans and elves. There were three different human cultures: the agrarian Azuposi, the coastal Metahel, and the nomadic Nahopaca.
