Neverwinter Wood

Originally known as the Llewyrrwood, this forest was once a colony of the mythical elven nation of Illefarn more than 10,000 years ago. Until recently, the presence of elves in this wood had become but a memory, with a few minor exceptions. Nonetheless, many of it's mystical properties have persisted throughout the ages, and now is a considered home to many races - including fey, goblinoids, bugbears, gnolls, and gnomes. For humans, and other non-fey races, the wood seems possessed of a magical spirit or ancient dweomer that makes them uneasy. Even orc hordes of old would circumvent the wood, rather than march through it.

Geography

Close to arctic regions, Neverwinter Wood is kept warmer than usual by the flow of warm water from Mt. Hotenow, rich rises from the center of the wood.
