The range includes several notable peaks, each with its own unique characteristics and cultural significance. The highest peak, known as [[Orak-Thun]], is considered sacred as it is believed to be the birthplace of the first Orasians.
			\|Geology=The Citadel Mountains are primarily composed of ancient stone, rich in minerals and crystals. Their geological composition reflects the intense tectonic activity that shaped Terasil eons ago. The mountains were formed through the manifestation of Oras's thought and creativity to protect both themselves and their creations.

	* Major Peaks: The range includes several notable peaks, each with its own unique characteristics and cultural significance. The highest peak, known as [[Mount Oras]], is considered sacred as it is believed to be the birthplace of the first Orasians.		The range is rich in various minerals, making it a vital source of resources for the inhabitants of Terasil. The mountains are known for their veins of precious metals and crystals, which are mined by the [[Duranthi]], [[Minthari]] and other races.

	\|Flora=The lower slopes of the Citadel Mountains are home to sparse forests of twisted, gnarled trees, which have adapted to the dry conditions by growing deep roots into cracks in the stone. Higher elevations transition into windswept ridges and rocky plateaus, where hardy shrubs, succulents, and mosses cling to the terrain. Many of these plants possess properties valuable to alchemists and healers.		\|Flora=The lower slopes of the Citadel Mountains are home to sparse forests of twisted, gnarled trees, which have adapted to the dry conditions by growing deep roots into cracks in the stone.
