Hermit's Wood

During the life of King Azoun II (1001–1056 DR), a hermit was the first person to dwell in the forest, giving it its name.
It was once a part of the forest that covered most of Cormyr. By 1372 DR (and 1479 DR) the Hullack Forest, the King's Forest, and Hermit's Wood were almost all that remained.
Bar visiting humans, no sentient beings actually lived within the forest.
The residents of the village of Blustich regularly hunted in the woods as well as residents of Ongul's Water some of the braver folk worked as guides to visitors, but knew much less about the forest than they let on.

Fauna & Flora

Hickory trees grew in the forest. Blueleaf trees grew in large groves on the northern side of Hermit's Wood.
Hermit berries found growing around the wood could be used to ward off kelpies.
A breed of toad found near Hermit's Wood had the power to see invisible creatures

Natural Resources

Local Cormyreans often foraged, hunted, and logged at the fringes of Hermit's Wood in the 14th century DR. Game was plentiful here, and it had been heavily cut for timber.
