The Weirwood

The Weirwood is located in the isolated Domain of Hawkmoon. Well removed from any civilized trade roads, the forest of Weir has for centuries grown ungoverned by druids and uncharted by woodsmen. This isolation — and perhaps a bit of dark magic from a long-forgotten curse — allowed the Weir to become a crucible for all sorts of lifeforms that are usually kept in check by the hands of man. In particular, poisonous flora abounds in this dense and murky wood.
The treetops are so thickly entwined as to cover the ground in continuous shadow, permitting the rampant growth of lichen, fungi, and myriad mosses, many species of which are quite inimical to human life. As a result, few mammals stalk the forest, save those immune to the various natural toxins. Certain creatures adapted over the years to flourish in these environs and represent new genetic strains of common fauna: Deer, rabbits, and several types of vermin in the wood evolved into species entirely different from the ordinary members of their kind.
