Monsters in Brohd Zellor

The most dangerous creatures of the Brohd Zellor are those whose gods or archetypal spirits were invited to live among the Dwarves in the realm. The environment is perfect for most of them--interesting terrain, good cover and dwellings, ample food, familiar surroundings, and enemies to kill. These monsters include Trolls, Dragons, Giants, Ogres, and Orcs, although the latter two are less populous than they might be in other similar areas of Little Dream. The creatures in mythical Brohd Zellor usually mirror creatures that live in Dwarven lands elsewhere in the material plane, such as Teldek and the Gimli mountains on Little Dream.

The most dangerous of those are the Oldest. The more Elder a creature it is, the more difficult it is to defeat, and the more damage it will do. These Elder creatures are usually more intelligent and always stronger and more powerful. The Huge “Traditional” Trolls, and the Oldest Dragons, are two prime examples.

PLANT LIFE in BROHD ZELLOR


TREES and SHRUBS

• Bearberry Dogwood; pretty five-petaled flowers in the spring… berries in the fall (named from a time when bears were still common; now they are rarely seen)
• Hairy Sumac (refreshing “Lemonade”)--north
• Mountain Alder: Huddles in rocky wastes where it can find water.
• Aspen Thickets--can grow among rocky and seemingly barren areas, as long as there is a water source, also grow high on mountains, higher up than the meadows
• Armored Pine--the staple pine, can grow quite big, looks as though it has ruddy plates of armor for bark
• Greenfir--fill out bright green, somewhat short and stubby
  Blazing Pine--tall and straight, best firewood every… Can grow in blazing pine forests, big danger of forest fires there in late summer
  
• Little White Birch, grows in small thicketsYellowberry--a shrub in the alpine meadows, a favorite of bears, very sweet
• The yellowberries tasted sweeter than anything Fynok had ever eaten, so it seemed to him. As if the warm glow of the warm mountainside meadow in the afternoon sunlight had infused the little fruits with something almost supernaturally tasty.Redweed Willow--ground shrub, can grow in thick stands, up to 6 feet tall, around mountain streams
  
  HERBS AND FLOWERS
  
  
• SnikkerLeaf Grass (gnomish name, used universally)--A strange combination of Grass and Herb, cultivated wherever possible, usually on lower alpine meadow slopes. Used like hemp or cotton, for garments and rough cloth
• Mountain Strawberry--fields of these are literally torn up by hungry bears in the late summe
• Whitebells--delicate white blossoms that hang down; heart shaped leaves; about 1.5 feet tall
• Thickbark--very small plants (2’ tall) with nevertheless a very thick, birchlike bark… Bark can be boiled as a tea, if enjoyed and savored, gives a sense of rejuvenation and 1 hit point
• Skazzblossoms: Huge circular seven-petaled blossoms, brightest white with silver tips. Can grow as a 3’ stalk or as a vine.
• Zizzroot: A pale green plant that creeps, a ground cover in symbiosis with many alpine meadows, gathering and distributing nutrients.
• Jazzarek’s Hammer: A tall, straight reed with a thick, heavy cattail like flower at the top. Grows in slower water, usually in the riverbottoms.
