40d:Desert
A Desert is typically a piece of land full of mostly sand. Deserts are a more challenging place to build a fort, as they lack a supply of wood. However, if a magma stream can be found, you can make a working fortress out of nothing but glass. An aquifer present makes for an easy water source, but breaking through it to find stone is difficult.
Foliage specifics
Saguaros have been reported and are one of the only trees ever to be found in a desert.
Wildlife
Herds of one-humped and two-humped camels often wander through deserts. Giant desert scorpions have been reported to be in the more savage areas.
