Kathleen Protector of the Woodlands (#15515)

Owner: 0x7BB5…3E05

The Emerald Forest is an ancient place where reality and illusions are intertwined. Some go to this magical place in search of something...some go to escape.

Entered by: 0x7BB5…3E05

Reality and illusions are blended together in the Emerald Forest. This land borders the Brown Wizard Delt. It continues eastward towards the White Wizard Tower. Rabbit Lake is found to the south.

The forest is much lighter on the west side as clusters of trees and bushes are spaced apart with many flowers near the ground. Here there are unique birds and animals that are stolen by poachers.

The east side of the forest has a thick canopy above and dense flora below make it difficult to walk through. This area is known for its poisonous plants and deadly animals as well as a home to several wizards who don’t wish to be found.

The Chunky River runs from south to north through the middle of the forest. It got its name from the blue river rats which build new nests each spring. When the blue river rat babies no longer need a nest they are abandoned and eventually the ground falls into the river making it wider.

Noxi Road runs west to east along the southern border of the forest. Eleven wizards disappeared on this road many decades ago and have never been found. Noxi means “number eleven”. Hedge Wizard Casper of the Garden knows what happened here but isn’t talking. He won’t leave the White Wizard Tower or talk to anyone.

The Iota Path runs through the middle of the forest along the right side of the Chunky River. The path can disappear and reappear at any time. This path got its name from the founding families of the town of Almanac. They said the forest is dangerous and if you travel north they don’t care one iota if you come back. Today the town is known for its kindness and willingness to help strangers. They absolutely do care if you come back for a visit.

At the beginning of the Emerald Forest in the south is the town of Almanac. It is a place where Noxi Road and Iota path intersect. It is named after a plant that grows along the banks of the Chunky River. This plant’s flowers change colors for each month of the year. Almanac plants tell you what month it is by the color of their blossoms and their scent.

Shops located at the crossroads of the town of Almanac are: Horis Mercantile Shop, Odren Livery and Stables, Dark Horse Tavern, and Morana Trading Post. These businesses are named after the four wizard families who started Almanac as a village. These families stayed after giving up trying to find their missing family members who were part of the missing eleven. The village has now turned into a town.

The Emerald Forest was named decades ago by two kobolds named Igi and Ogi. These two liked the color emerald and started calling it the Emerald Forest and it stuck. There are no emeralds in this forest. There are some jade rocks. There are no records of the real name of the forest and no one remembers.

The Emerald Forest is where Warrior Kathleen of the Woodlands (#15515) lives with her group of females called the Jadeites. Their camp is hidden and has not been found by outsiders. The job of the Jadeites is to protect all plants, birds, and animals of the forest from poachers.

The legendary battle with the Nightmare Imp beast (#6) and warrior Kathleen (15515) took place in the Emerald Forest.

Soul Shaded Spectre Lucinda of the Spike (#1847) can be summoned in the Emerald Forest. You must sing “Lu Lu Lucinda” in order to ask her for a favor. She will make you sacrifice something to win a prize or wish. She travels to other areas and is not always in the Emerald Forest.

Enchanter Daphne of the Forest (#85) lives on the eastside of the forest. She is the keeper of the ancient book of magical spells of this forest. Daphne can only be found if her great horned owl Lily decides it is okay and then will show you how to find her.

Alchemist Zane of the Plains (#9311) lives in the forest. Wizard Zane is known for his potions but doesn’t like people and he is difficult to find. The almanac plant has secret medicinal properties only know to Alchemist Zane of the Plains (#9311)
