Some people want to live not at volcano's feet, but in a volcano. Whether it's active or extinct. After all, a crater inside some big mountain is a relatively defensible location, there's plenty of free geothermal power, it looks impressive, and Everything's Cooler With Lava. Usually Supervillain Lair, but not always. Naturally predisposed to become a Collapsing Lair. Most feature labyrinthine cave complex, Lava Pits and use of free heat. These bases are often located in a Lava Pot Volcano, hanging over or surrounding a great lake of molten rock. Often done in a rather careless manner. May or may not be located on an island. In a video game, this may be a Lethal Lava Land. |

Divinity: Original Sin II: The Sallow Man — a malevolent Humanoid Abomination — and his undead minions operate out of a cave network in the volcanic Nameless Isle, complete with plenty of Lava Pits. This makes for an Easy Level Trick, since his Boss Battle can be cut short by teleporting him into the lava. | |

In Invention for Destruction, Count Artigas' lair is located in Black-Cup Island; an extinct volcano. His manufacturing processes cause a column of black smoke to rise from the caldera; making it look like the volcano is still active. | |

X-Men villain Magneto had a base hidden within a volcano near the Savage Land, which he could easily get in via his magnetic powers. He once held the All-New All-Different X-Men prisoner here, but in their escape and subsequent battle with Magneto, the base was destroyed after devices meant to keep the lava away were destroyed. | |

Their stadium is built in the active crater of their version of Mount Royal, which has been known to occasionally erupt during games. To players and spectators alike, it's just another of Maximum League Baseball's many occupational hazards. | |

Whateley Universe: Played with in the Caribbean island kingdom of Karedonia, created by the supervillain Gizmatic (Joe Wilkins). The original island, Sao Monica, sat on a magma hotspot; self-proclaimed Emperor Joseph used Mad Science to draw magma up from the ground to extend the island until it quintupled in size. He then used it to create a tropical getaway and supervillain haven, complete with tourism, mining of rare minerals, offshore banking, and supervillain timeshare lairs. While the palace and most of other structures are on the slopes of Mt Wilkins rather than inside the volcano itself, there is an interior citadel which also houses the machinery which keeps the island stable. Unreliable Narrator Mephisto the Mentalist claimed that the reason so many super-spy organizations in the 1960s and 1970s had a Volcano Lair was because they could contract it out to a super-villain called Volcanax, who was a Devisor as well as having lava-control powers. He would just go to some distant point in the ocean, draw up a large amount of magma, and then once it was cooled enough he would install equipment to keep it from collapsing back down without him constantly maintaining it personally. Of course, being the product of Mad Science, the equipment itself was unstable and pretty easy for any intruder to wreck, which is why the islands would always explode just as the hero is getting away... |

Shadows over Meridian: The Stone Nest, the Mogriffs' sacred nesting grounds in the northern mountains of Meridian, turns out to be a volcano that's either extinct or sleeping. The caldera has vegetation and water coming from the snow and ice that's melting outside thanks to the warm air and the sunlight filtering from the open crater. It's here that the Mogriffs make their nests and adorn them with crystals found inside the volcano. The other races' greed for those crystals is part of the reason they've had to fight for their ancestral home over the centuries. | |

Dungeons & Dragons Dragonlance — The biggest Minoi settlement around is Mount Nevermind. A combination of their smokepowder storage facility and one angry red dragon led to reactivation of the volcano and subsequent discovery of useable geothermal energy. Forgotten Realms — Firenewts live in volcanic mountains. Because they need lava pit-grade heat. Red dragons, being immune to fire, prefer hot lairs and especially like volcanoes for combining high temperatures with commanding views of the landscape. Fire giants like to make their homes within volcanoes or volcanic caverns — active ones, by preference, and ones who live in less tectonically active real estate can go through quite a lot of wood and coal to make their lairs feel more homey. |

The Forge from Steven Universe is a volcano lair used by Bismuth to forge the Crystal Gems' non-summon weapons and upgrade existing weapons, having made Rose's sword, upgrades to Garnet, Amethyst and Pearl's weapons and the Breaking-Point, a hand-held super-weapon created with the express purpose of shattering gems. The entrance can only be opened by Bismuth, and because Bismuth is a gem created specifically for construction and smithing, her body can withstand high temperatures and is able to touch molten-hot materials undeterred. | |

Irredeemable. Plutonian built his secret superhero citadel inside a volcano not just because he's Nigh-Invulnerable and can survive swimming through lava that would incinerate any supervillain, but also in the futile hope of drowning out the voices constantly calling for his help. The series starts with his Face–Heel Turn, so it's become a Supervillain Lair. Fortunately one of his former superhero colleagues is a master of teleportation technology, enabling them to bypass the lava to get inside. | |

Used interestingly in one Buck Danny story. While flying, Buck spots a smoking volcano island and flies over it, taking pictures to send to volcanologists. Which is how he discovers the volcano isn't active but used as a secret base by the bad guys, who use smoke emitters to disguise their operations. | |

How to Hero: The guide's author expresses confusion at this phenomenon but warns superheroes about it anyway. "A lot of volcanoes end up being used as supervillain lairs at some point. Which seems weird to me. Because why would you want to live in a volcano. I feel like it would get hot. But who am I to judge. What do I know about supervillain lairs." |

Game of Thrones: Dragonstone — Stannis's foreboding seat of power — is one of these, in addition to being an Island Base. It was formed centuries ago by volcanic eruptions, utilized by the Targaryens as a staging ground for their conquest of Westeros, and for bonus points is a major source of obsidian. It's also where every Targaryen dragon, other than Balerion the Black Dread, was born and raised. | |

In You Only Live Twice, the SPECTRE base is built inside a volcano, providing the trope image. The volcano is long dead, but the lava tunnels provide venting for the toxic gases and blazing exhaust from SPECTRE's rocket launches. When the base is blown up in the climax, from outside it looks like the volcano is erupting. | |

In Starter Villain (2023), Charlie Fitzer inherits a nice one from his recently-deceased supervillain uncle.

But this one comes with abundant geothermal power and a workforce of Uplifted Animal dolphins. | |
