Adventuring Climate

Classic dungeon quests.  Hot weather on the surface, plenty of ancient buried ruins, exotic locales and more than one or two labyrinthine dungeons.

Actual Climate

Primarily desert with southern tropical mountains (Persian culture, Egyptian adventures without obvious references to either, i.e. no pyramids, pharaohs nor sultans but instead caravans, tombs, golden idols, etc.)
Pros: Loot is mostly yours, freelance adventuring
Cons: Competing adventurers, try to find your own adventure.
