Czevik

Czevik is a large forest on the western most coast of Kioterra. The dense, gnarled, deciduous forest stretches out as far as you can see. Deep green leaves tremble in the breeze, the thick canopy shivering overhead. The occasional flicker of light can be seen ahead as the sun/moon desperately tries to peer through the forest roof. Your nostrils are overwhelmed by the sweet scents of sap and the musky smell of the damp earth coating the forest floor, but occasionally, the faint smell of death tickles your nose. You can hear the chattering of the occasional forest creature, or the snap of twigs, though both are often drown out by the rustling of the leaves. The darkness within the forest seems to carry a heavy almost unnatural weight.

Fauna & Flora

The forest is primarily made up of oak, birch, elm, and maple trees. Low-growing ferns, mosses, and herbs dominate the forest floor.

Wildlife

The forest is home to a wide variety of wildlife including, but not limited to, insects, reptiles, birds, rabbits, foxes, deer, bears, wolves, boars, and spiders.

Settlements

On numerous occasions groups have attempted to settle within the forest. However, these settlements rarely lasted long as they were met with harsh resistance by abnormally aggressive wildlife. Despite each attempt to settle being met with disaster, every once in a while, another group will attempt to carve their way in and settle, continuing the cycle. Due to the repeat failing of settlements, many superstitions have risen up about this area.

Natural Resources

• Wood is the most prominent resource available here. However, due to the aggressiveness of the wildlife, harvesting it is often a slow process.
• Animals here can be hunted for their pelts or meat, though hunters in the region are careful to not over hunt the area.
