Northern Wilds
The Northern Wilds is widely feared. It is a dark, ominous expanse of woods, and few except those who were born in it's shadow consider it a refuge. It is rumored to be filled with brigands, beasts, and curses. Many Wilder Elves trace their lineage to these woods, though few live there now. Portions have been controlled by different Drow families over the years, though no one claims exclusive ownership of the Wilds.
Geography
Beneath the vegetation, the land of the Wilds are curving and duplicitous, making them difficult to navigate even in areas of relative expanse. The Midden River cuts through the middle of the forest and into the Midden Lake. There are no large scale population centers, though small compounds or camps can occasionally be spotted through the brush.
Fauna & Flora
Flora
The plant life of the Wilds are vibrant and diverse. A temperate rainforest, most of the vegetation follows seasonal patterns of decay and regrowth, though the bulk of the trees themselves are dark, black-green evergreens native to the area.Fauna
Animals and beasts run rampant through the woods, from the innocuous to the dangerous. Most creatures will consume another; few predators are truly superior, though there are rumors of a great beast that all others fear. The rumor is largely relegated to Northport tavern gossip by more serious travelers, however.
