The dark orange glow and blistering heat of the lava are warnings that you should stay away.
Virtually every planet in the galaxy has magma at its core, and lava can appear just about anywhere, including underground. A Lava Flow makes a good barrier. Placing a subterranean stronghold on an island surrounded by a lava moat challenges the heroes to find a different entrance. A bridge above a Lava Flow makes an exciting location for a battle as the heroes struggle to stay out of the searing magma while trying to defeat their enemies.
