The Deepwing Mountains rise in craggy defiance between the Orsraun and Cloven ranges, a rugged frontier west of the Vilhon Reach and southeast of the Shining Plains. Their steep, wind-scarred ridges form a natural barrier, their heights gradually descending into the rough expanse of the Rushing Hills to the west. Jagged and treacherous, the Deepwings are notorious for harboring deadly winged predators—chief among them red dragons whose roars echo across desolate peaks. Few dare the narrow trails or shadowed passes without significant force or magical aid. In the southwest lies the Spines of Surkh, a grim subrange guarding ancient, half-buried tombs of long-dead lizardfolk chieftains. These cryptic ruins surround the reclusive site of Surkh itself, where primal magics and serpentine wards endure. Scant settlements cling to the lower slopes, more often abandoned than thriving. The Deepwing Mountains remain a symbol of Faerûn’s untamed wilds.

Dark peaks thrust skyward in uneven rows, their slopes cloaked in mist and shadow. Ashen cliffs crumble into deep ravines, and dragonfire-scarred outcrops glow faintly in twilight. Twisting trails vanish into the clouds, and ancient stone markers jut from scree like broken teeth. To the south, jagged ridgelines curl around vine-strangled tombs beneath crimson skies.
