The Askell Lava Field is mostly flat, and at about 1,600 m, positioned at a lower elevation than the surrounding Maineiac Volcanic biome. It is composed mainly of basalt. It is a small landmark, at about 14 kilometers wide at time of establishment. ("Establishment" being when a small, nameless, now-extinct volcano erupted and its lava cooled around it) The nameless volcano is now nothing but a hill at the summit of the landmark.

Soon after its formation, the field was colonized by pioneering species, as seen below.

(Species shown: rustmolds, tepoflora, chitjorns, glaalgaes, and pioneeroots.)
