[[folder:The Hub Town]]
The town is an oasis of new life and hope amid the ravaged landscape, where magic, technology and nature come together in synergy. Solar and wind power, renewable magic(k)s and a "green eco-friendly" ethos.
* '''Town Square:''' More circular than square but "Town Circle" sounds weird. There are trees and lawns and there's a notice board in the centre.
* '''Hotel:'''
* '''[[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=1#12 Solstice Café]]:''' On the edge of the circular square, near the hotel and visible from the parking lot. Standard breakfast fare, '''''really''''' creative with what they can do with eggs, amazing coffee.
* '''[[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=9#219 The Purple Fez Tavern]]:''' First building counter-clockwise from the West Gate road. Marked with a retro-futuristic neon sign.
* '''Restaurant:''' Next to the hotel on the edge of the square.
* '''[[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=27#comment-674 Crater]]:''' Wain Fallwen crashed his spaceship on the edge of town square next to the hotel and restaurant.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Web of Friendship Scouter Hummingbird]]
A {{Magitek}} spaceship in geosynchronous orbit above the town, [[WetwareCPU piloted]] by [[CyborgHelmsman Arilay]]. Please note that Arilay regards this ship as an extension of her body, and as such, it is bad form to enter the body of a SpaceshipGirl without permission.
* '''Transporter Room:''' This room is built on a basic rectangle. One short end is entirely taken up by the teleporter (large enough to comfortably fit an elephant on it), which is slightly separated from the rest of the room by an armored half-wall just big enough for three people to duck and cover behind. The half-wall has a computer terminal embedded into it and joins one long side of the transporter room, which is dominated by an arranged row of {{spheroid dropship}}s up to the point where the half-wall attaches. The other long side has a quarantine airlock directly to Sick Bay situated between the teleporter pad and an entrance into the corridors leading to the rest of the ship. The wall section between the airlock and the corridor looks like the corridor walls — the wall is rough and knobbly like an exercise climbing wall and there's a dead-end pipe with an airlock into the aquatic express lane. The last short wall of the room has a large garage-like door next to a series of smaller crawl-space-sized access panels, all of which lead to a small storage room. Two mechanical tentacle-arms have free roam of the ceiling and can reach any point in the room for the purpose of assisting cargo or less mobile people on and off the teleporter pad.
* '''Sick Bay:''' Hovering pods for individual patients maneuver themselves from storage racks on the ceiling to various medical stations and rooms for patients.[[note]]descriptions of stations and sick rooms coming soon maybe[[/note]] Currently one pod is out of the room.
** '''Quarantine Room''': Uses a blueprint similar to a holding cell in The Brig.
** '''Medical Library''': For the purposes of brainstorming and memory-refreshing, you can grab an ebook, sit down among the shelves and browse the centralized computer databanks, or you can enter one of multiple small holodecks that are programmed to simulate elaborate three-dimensional StringTheory images.
* '''Corridors:''' With different lanes for [[BizarreAlienLocomotion different locomotions]], the corridors are complex enough to require a very detailed description. They twist and turn so that if the ArtificialGravity goes haywire, there's only a short distance to fall in each direction. Humanoids generally walk in the middle of the floor.
** '''Arboreal Express Lanes:''' Dangling from the high ceiling where it meets the walls are evenly spaced mixtures of criss-crossing tree-branch mockups, interrupted by the occasional trapeze or swinging ring. Such structures are limited to directly above the pipes (see below). The space above pedestrians' heads is not part of the ceiling jungle gym, for that's where the dimmer-bulb lights are installed.
** '''Aquatic Express Lanes:''' Where the floor meets the walls, large transparent water pipes run, curving through protruding wall corners. At regular intervals along the pipes are airlock-like escape hatches.
** '''[[MouseWorld Small Runner]] Express Lanes:''' In between the water pipes and the rest of the floor are two yellow lanes with small circular bumps, wide enough for a raccoon to run on. Additionally, the joints where the pipe sections attach to each other are decorated with short, evenly spaced rods lying parallel to the pipes. The rods' purpose is less than obvious -- miniature ladders for miniature crew members.
** '''Walls:''' The tall walls are rough with lots of inert knobs for handholds and footholds, with communications or maintenance panels positioned on strategically placed wall bulges. At regular intervals are hollows in the wall, each with a peculiar potted plant that looks like an African Violet except the leaves are black and the flowers glow. These plants are there just in case the lights and/or atmosphere control systems fail.
* '''Rec Room:''' A comfortably spacious room piled with bean bag chairs and blankets.
* '''The Brig:''' A series of holding cells, each with their own airlock, Faraday cage, and ''el-kor'' field. The el-kor field is the equivalent of a Faraday cage for blocking telepathy, telekinesis, and teleporting. Other security measures not yet specified.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:The Wilderness]]
* '''Ghost Town:''' Moderate-sized town (formerly around 7,000 occupants) that was abandoned years ago. The place has become overgrown and wild animals have set up habitats within it - rather like Pripyat in the Ukraine. Currently under TeleportInterdiction; teleport out of it is possible, but into or within it is not.
** '''[[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=40#comment-977 General Store and Motel]]:''': These two buildings are across the street from each other. The motel has two shot bandit corpses inside, [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=40#comment-993 one with his heart displaced]].
** '''[[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=40#comment-992 Disused Well]]:''' This well is full of mud, hence why it's disused. One of the nearby buildings is on fire.
** '''[[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=41#comment-1004 Clock Tower]]:''' A run-down tower with a giant clock missing its hands makes a decent but obvious vantage point for snipers.
** '''City Hall (former):''' A three-story building that once stood in the center of town. Used to serve as a base of operations for Black Morgan. Was leveled by an overzealous Haydn's fire spell during a raid on the building.
* '''Forest:''' A dark, forbidding forest populated by strange animals and scattered with overgrown ruins. There is a cave near the east edge, and an improvised leading from that cave to the edge, where all the vegetation has been either hacked down or trampled.
** '''Forest Ruins:''' A bunker and a radio tower overrun by kudzu. Supposedly contains an ancient repository on dragons. Animals tend to avoid the place.
* '''Smaller River:''' Originating within the Forest, the smaller river flows under The Scar and into the Harbor.
** '''Edge of the Forest:''' Sufficiently alert trackers will be able to notice [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=11#252 horse hair caught on the bark of the outermost trees]]. A few steps south into the grasslands, there's a [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=15#353 D'voreem corpse with a broken skull]] lying in a trampled path of grass leading south.
** '''Intersecting The Scar:''' The muddy riverbanks both upstream and downstream of The Scar have lots of equine hoofprints. The northern riverbank's hoofprints upstream of The Scar has the majority of the hoofprints, muddled in every direction. The northern riverbank's hoofprints downstream of The Scar point downstream towards the sea. The southern riverbank's hoofprints downstream of The Scar point upstream, but do not reappear upstream of The Scar.
** '''Mouth of the Smaller River:''' RoadApples have been left along the beach. Discerning trackers will be able to tell the manure came from [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=7#166 horses]]. The [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=8#180 desperate, weak homunculus]] previously there was driven off.
* '''Grasslands''': In between the two rivers grows grass tall enough to tickle a horse's belly.
** '''Battlefield:''' Starting where the Smaller River exits the forest, a [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=15#353 D'voreem corpse with a broken skull]] lies in a wide trampled path of grass leading south. Further along the trampled path, [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=15#354 a large circle of grass]] has been trampled flat. In this circle is a headless D'voreem corpse, [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=15#371 its head sliced cleanly off]] and missing somewhere in the untrampled grass, and its [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=19#453 torso is torn open with its heart missing]]. At the edge of this circle, another D'voreem corpse has been [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=15#371 thoroughly trampled]]. The trampled path of grass continues south to the Exsylvan Tributary.
* '''Larger River:''' This river has three tributaries from the Forest, Mt. Bifrons, and near the Necropolis. These three tributaries join and flow under The Scar and into the Harbor.
** '''Spirit Tributary:''' The first and longest tributary starts in between the Necropolis and Mt. Bifrons and flows north (within sight of the Necropolis) before taking a sharp turn for a long journey east (within sight of the edge of the Forest). Its waters carry a chill that is usually described as death-like.
** '''Bifrons Tributary:''' Originating from Mt. Bifrons' hot springs, this tributary flows north down the mountain and joins the Spirit Tributary where the river turns northeast. As the waters mingle, the last lingering warmth of the hot springs and the last lingering chill of the Necropolis cancel each other out.
** Tricky Section:[[note]]Administrivia/NeedsABetterName[[/note]] Caution is recommended for attempts to ford the river along this stretch. Sufficiently careful attempts will generally succeed, but getting cocky about it is TemptingFate.
** '''Exsylvan Tributary:''' Originating within the forest, this tributary flows east out of the forest and joins where the river turns east before flowing under The Scar.
*** '''Trail from Grassland Battlefield''' A [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=22#comment-534 wide path of trampled grass ends at the tributary's northern riverbank]], with scattered deposits of RoadApples directly [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=23#comment-574 across the tributary from the trail]].
** Seabound Section:[[note]]feel free to rename[[/note]] At this point, there's so much water that fording the river is dangerous and difficult, it is recommended that travelers cross at The Scar instead.
* '''Hellmouth:''' A piece of Hell that has merged with the world, where devils roam seeking mortal souls.
* '''Hollow Mounds:''' A cluttered group of skyscraper-sized termite nests. Its original inhabitants have been long gone, but many other beings may have made it their new home.
* '''Mount Bifrons:''' A twin mouthed volcano surrounded by a forest where rivers of lava flow around trees that have turned to black glass.
** '''The Lava Lake:''' A lake of lava sitting in the middle of the forest surrounding Mount Bifrons. May be home to a demon.
* '''Necropolis:''' A hill where the dead have slept through the ages. Towering Mausoleums overgrown by vegetation, graveyards built on top of buried pyramids, labyrinthine crypts that have no end nor beginning, and even long-abandoned archives holding lost knowledge. It is a peaceful region, silent and welcoming like an open grave.
** '''Avenue of Angels:''' A route through the Necropolis lined with ancient, uniform mausoleums, gnarled trees, and rather disturbing angel statues.
** '''Cody's Cove:''' A series of crypts where a wayward ten-year-old has decided to take up residence.
* '''Sun-Dry Sea:''' A dried up sea where coral and other sea life still lives, while alien jellyfish float freely through the air, and various beasts roam the ground.
** '''The Salt Swamp:''' A shallow group of puddles made of undrinkable salt water and hardy plants, home to small flies that feast on the corpses of nearby dead animals.
* '''"Ridge":''' A humongous canyon, filled with tough vegetation and wildlife, and rock formations in shapes possible only through erosion over time. Some of the walls sport large holes, though what made them does not seem to be around anymore.
* '''Rainforest:''' A relatively small but heavily overgrown wooded area. It's very warm and humid here, with frequent rainfall... in fact, the place generates its own climate. Home to many birds and giant insects and various treetop critters, and dotted with suspiciously deep pools, as well as a murky river with dolphins that may or may not be friendly.
** '''The Caves of the Abyss:''' The pools in the rainforest are just the surface of a vast network of water-filled caverns. The water is very clear and fresh but also very dark, and strange fish inhabit its depths. It also contains pockets of dry caverns above the water level, hidden within mounds in the rainforest.
** '''Northwest Scar Entrance:''' Just beyond the trees, [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=32#comment-786 on the floor of The Scar]] is a bloodstain and thoroughly shattered bones missing their marrow. The remains are from a [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=30#comment-727 juvenile moufreta]], but the bones are too fragmented to make that immediately obvious. A little further in, alert enough trackers will notice [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=36#comment-878 a light dusting of ash]] on the bottom of the trench.
** '''Path of Dead Trees:''' A trail of dead trees leading away from The Scar. Presumably, the missing child walked this way and the curse on him killed the trees. Seenarnha has left a dozen blue Christmas baubles at eye level along the trail, starting from The Scar. A yellow Christmas bauble marks where a dragonhorse split from the party.
** '''Mirage-Mangled Corpse:''' The trail of dead trees ends in [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=55#comment-1363 a deadly mirage holding a small child's circulatory and nervous systems]] on display.
*** A {{spheroid dropship}} belonging to the Web of Friendship Scouter Hummingbird is parked nearby. [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=57#comment-1411 Its beacon is active]] to broadcast a warning to stay away from the deadly mirage.
** '''[[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=40#comment-999 Shriveled Moufreta Corpse]]:''' A short distance off the beaten track, a juvenile moufreta has had all its blood messily extracted through a rather large rasped hole in its neck.
* '''Warpfields:''' An abandoned battlefield warped by chaotic magics, where spellcasters must worry about magical backlash and possible mutations.
** '''Petrifying Pond:''' On the border of the Warpfields is a tiny pond, marked with three close-together stone trees and an unfortunate petrified duck. Don't drink or swim in it.
** '''Suspiciously Knobbly Ginormous Stone:''' Twenty miles east of the petrifying pond is a humongous stone. With the right perspective, it looks like a half-buried reptilian foot clenched into an approximation of a fist, but with too many digits that have too many joints.
* '''Wasteland:''' Nothing has grown here in centuries, nor is anything likely to ever grow again in the sterilized soil. Water isn't hard to come by, but precautions should be taken before drinking it. Numerous magical, technological and magitech ruins.
* '''Fields of Abyss:''' A gentle steppe pockmarked with enormous kilometer-wide holes ringed with metal that seem to drop down into the core of the planet itself. No one knows just why they're here or what they're for, but the locals- if one can even call the City's residents that- treat the area with a measure of reverence.
* '''Coast of Chills:''' This strip of coastland has stormy seas and high, chilling winds. The sea here is dotted by icebergs and windswept rock islands.
** '''Cave of Secrets:''' Nobody knows where the entrance to this cave is, except that it's somewhere on the Coast of Chills. Unlike the watery caves underneath the rainforest, these are supposedly dry.
* '''Harbor:''' Located right next to the city, it is the gateway for ocean travel around the continent. On the surface it seems benign, but who knows what hides beneath its gentle waters.
* '''Island:''' Located at the mouth of the harbor and home to interesting flora and strange landmarks.
** '''Island Ruins:''' Ruins with strange topology.
* '''The Scar:''' The Scar is an enormous concrete trench that wends a circuitous path across the breadth of the continent. Whatever process used to create it obliterated whatever terrestrial feature stood in its way without exception- forests, rivers, entire mountains- and left a uniform grey floor and slanted walls in their place. The Scar was named before the City's explorers charted it far enough to realize that it formed a closed loop, as the curvature is shallow enough so as to be unnoticeable from an individual perspective. At any given point, it appears to run straight, and those few parties that venture out from the City use it as a convenient road of sorts to get from place to place.
** '''[[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=2#28 Chitara's Wagon]]:''' Mobile purveyors of assorted delights. [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=15#359 Packed up and left town.]]

[[folder:Creatures]]
When wandering the wilderness, one is liable to encounter any number of creatures, dangerous or otherwise. Some are animals, while others are of a more anomalous nature. In either case, their origins are unknown, and wanderers are advised to be on their guard when exploring lest they run afoul of any of the local wildlife, such as it is.
* '''D'voreem:''' Large carnivorous primates (about 1.6-1.8m tall when standing erect on hind legs, 70-90kg). Humanlike hands, prehensile feet with elongated, finger-like, toes - all digits tipped with sharp non-retractable claws. Pointed snouts with sharp carnivorous teeth; large cat-like ears. Climb very well, jump considerable distances from branch to branch in arboreal settings, run on all fours at around 50km/h on the ground. Operate in packs of 10-20 individuals, preferring to surround their prey, use relay tactics to herd and tire their prey if necessary but will attack camp sites ''en masse'' or stalk, surround and ambush slower-moving prey. Prefer arboreal settings, found primarily in the Forest and Ghost Town.
* '''Graveskitter:''' An undead creature made from a collection of bones and half-rotten muscle tissue in the shape of a random number of vaguely insectoid legs, surrounding a small spherical core with a few eyes haphazardly strewn over it. They come in different sizes, but are usually never more than half a meter or so in width or height. They feed on WildMagic, especially the kind associated with necromancy or other dark arts, and can often be seen skittering about in haunted crypts or on battlefields where spells were used, sucking magic from the corpses to sustain themselves, conveniently making them stay dead. Graveskitters are mostly harmless and tend to flee when disturbed, but have been known to occasionally attack careless magic users. They hate sunlight and loud noises. Found primarily near the Hellmouth and in the Warpfields. Mysteriously absent from the Necropolis, aside from maybe one or two that went wandering.
* '''Zebreer:''' A herbivore with the appearance of a zebra with a deer-like head with black antlers. Usually found in Sun-Dry Sea, feeding on the hardy pale grasses that grow there, but can also be seen wandering around other nearby areas.
* '''Gloamfeeder:''' These beings resemble tall humanoid figures with mottled green-black skin. Each stands at least three meters tall, with elongated limbs and necks, and they have a massive vertical gash running from their eyeless heads down their entire front, throats and bellies open as if split with a blade. They are so named because, though sightings are rare, they can most commonly be glimpsed in the twilight hours feeding on corpses of the recently deceased, tearing them apart and shoving the pieces into their open maws. It is unknown if they are aggressive or simply scavengers, but it's not unheard of for people to go mysteriously missing when out wandering at dusk.
* '''Homunculus:''' Amorphous and vaguely humanoid masses of doughy flesh, Homunculi have the capacity to alter the shape and texture of their bodies to resemble other humanoids they encounter. They only do this however if the individual they are attempting to imitate is dead- or, in the case they are not, making sure of it themselves. Their bodies are capable of projecting chitinous spurs they use for attacking in close-quarters, and who knows what other offensive abilities. If left for long enough without a host, a Homunculus might attempt to imitate an inanimate object, though they will typically displace or destroy the original before attempting to do so- and humanoids are always preferred to objects. It is for this reason that a Homunculus that is posing as an object will attempt to kill and imitate the first living being it sees.
* '''Shriver:''' Six-limbed humanoids dressed head-to-toe in tattered dust-colored robes, ancient sigils tracing the hems and sleeves. The only thing visible of them beneath their robes is a long proboscis that hangs down from under their hoods, and few get close enough to discover more because- without exception- they attack all others on sight. Shrivers can conjure a black mass of corrosive particles which they hurl at trespassers, and like a swarm of locusts under the Shriver's direction, these particles follow and devour their target until nought but bleached bones remain.
* '''Skvader:''' A small six-limbed herbivore that resembles a feathered hare or rabbit with two wings sprouting from it's back. While incapable of true flight, these creatures can often be seen performing impressive feats of jumping and gliding. Both the skvaders themselves and their large, oddly colorful eggs are considered quite delicious by some people. They are attracted by the scent of alcoholic beverages. Found primarily in the Forest, Ridge and Ghost Town areas.
* '''Aeon-bloom:''' an unusual plant, with an underground rhizome and thorny, twisted, entangled stalks protruding from the ground. At the top of each there is a large flower with spiral pieces, stamens becoming white petals, petals becoming green leaves and leaves shrinking into thorns as it grows, so it always seems to be blooming. The tips of the petals emit a faint, pulsating green glow in the night, as if it was sending a signal. The plant is indeed doing so, and should someone decode it they would notice that the plant is monitoring soil conditions and broadcasting said information. They are specially common in the Graveyard, and almost completely absent in the Sun-dry Sea, the Wasteland and Mount Bifrons.
* '''Moufreta:'''
** Juveniles of the species are frail, 2 meter long, raptor-like omnivores with lanky, underdeveloped bat-wing-like arms. While highly curious, they aren't terribly bright, and can be quite aggressive.
** Adults can grow up to 15 meters or more, with a distinct theropod build. They can fly and breath fire.
* '''Ashwalker:''' These creatures resemble emaciated corpses with ashen skin, with heads like slugs, grey blobs with a single puckered orifice in the center that belches fire. Metal objects held in their grip as improvised weapons inexplicably become red-hot, and though individually they are fairly weak, their ashen nature makes them unnaturally tough and they are rarely found alone. Ashwalkers are invariably hostile to strangers and adventurers, and what's more, they appear to share some degree of collective consciousness. It has been commonly observed that if one of them notices a fresh victim, all of them become aware of the intruder.
* '''Mirage:''' A flicker, an odd reflection, a shimmering silhouette. These may be the last things you ever see. It is unknown whether Mirages can even truly be called creatures, but the threat they pose is mythical to the City's residents. Mirages are typically bound to specific areas, which become incredibly dangerous to traverse. Victims are found arranged in impossible positions- limbs bent at mathematically precise angles, partially phased through the environment, or even just hanging in mid-air, body sectioned and re-arranged into a collage of carnage that all who gaze upon it can't help but describe as inexplicably beautiful.
* '''Witch Snake:''' A nocturnal snake dwelling in forests, plains, or anywhere where small rodents may dwell. Identified by a purple and black diamond pattern. While they have fangs, they are not venomous... in the usual sense. Instead they provoke prey into biting them back and squirt their corrosive blood into the wound. What is even more peculiar about them is their innate magical ability; their blood contains a curse that makes it even more corrosive and also eats away at a victim's life force. Additionally, they are very difficult to kill; they are thought to become undead after reproducing. On the flip side, they are quite intelligent and easy to tame, and leave much larger creatures alone unless threatened. Due to being attracted to ambient magic, quite a few of them inhabit the Warpfields and the Hellmouth.
* '''Sneeder Bird:''' Named after their call (which sounds like "'''Snee'''der, '''snee'''der, '''snee'''der, '''sneet'''!"), this stealthy bird likes to hide and sing at dawn and dusk, trying to lure predators (for example, humans) into a fruitless chase. The longer a sneeder bird can hold the attention of a predator without being spotted, the more impressed the sneeder bird's potential mates will be. The song has a psychic component to [[CuriosityKilledTheCast artificially boost the curiosity of other species to dangerous levels]]. This bird can be heard everywhere, but favors staging its chases in areas with less visibility, like forests and buildings.
* '''Wild Pigplant:''' Basically a pig with chlorophyll in its skin. Mainly sunbathes and scavenges corpses, but also eats plants in a pinch. Can be distinguished from its domesticated counterpart by the thorns and tusks, erect ears, {{red eyes|TakeWarning}}, HairTriggerTemper, and superior strength, speed and intelligence.
* '''Domestic Pigplant:''' Basically a pig with chlorophyll in its skin. Mainly sunbathes and eats farmer-provided slop. Can be distinguished from its wild counterpart by floppy ears, green eyes, dimwitted and docile nature, slow flabby muscles gone to waste, and lack of thorns and tusks.

!!Rumors and Notices
Here is a list of all the rumors posted in the bulletin board in the town square. These rumors are the seeds for adventures the characters will embark on.
[[folder:Rumor List]]
* LEGENDARY MUSKET discovered in the Warpfields to the north. Legend tells of its magical design that lets it shoot explosives infused with spectacular spells, good for both fights and fireworks shows. If interested, look for an elf boy with more weapons than it looks like he can carry.
* POWERFUL ARTIFACT stolen from the Necropolis rumored to be hiding in the Cave of Secrets near the Coast of Chills. Rumored to be connected to a subterranean society.
* MISSING CHILD rumored to be lost in the rainforest. His mother, "The Woman In Room 444", is offering wishes as a reward for his return. RARE MEDICINAL HERBS also rumored to be found there. But beware; trees and animals have been spontaneously dying off in the rainforest.
* CAUTION: Bored Pranksters. ThisIsNoTimeToPanic. (photo of twins) Vampiric Mayatan twins Aynara and Arnaya are generally friendly, but unpredictable and prone to terrifying pranks when bored. Level heads are recommended.

It would be handy if the descriptions herein were up-to-date indications of the state of the locations...
[[folder:The Hub Town]]
The town is an oasis of new life and hope amid the ravaged landscape, where magic, technology and nature come together in synergy. Solar and wind power, renewable magic(k)s and a "green eco-friendly" ethos.
* '''Town Square:''' More circular than square but "Town Circle" sounds weird. There are trees and lawns and there's a notice board in the centre.
* '''Hotel:'''
* '''[[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=1#12 Solstice Café]]:''' On the edge of the circular square, near the hotel and visible from the parking lot. Standard breakfast fare, '''''really''''' creative with what they can do with eggs, amazing coffee.
* '''[[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=9#219 The Purple Fez Tavern]]:''' First building counter-clockwise from the West Gate road. Marked with a retro-futuristic neon sign.
* '''Restaurant:''' Next to the hotel on the edge of the square.
* '''[[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=27#comment-674 Crater]]:''' Wain Fallwen crashed his spaceship on the edge of town square next to the hotel and restaurant.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Web of Friendship Scouter Hummingbird]]
A {{Magitek}} spaceship in geosynchronous orbit above the town, [[WetwareCPU piloted]] by [[CyborgHelmsman Arilay]]. Please note that Arilay regards this ship as an extension of her body, and as such, it is bad form to enter the body of a SpaceshipGirl without permission.
* '''Transporter Room:''' This room is built on a basic rectangle. One short end is entirely taken up by the teleporter (large enough to comfortably fit an elephant on it), which is slightly separated from the rest of the room by an armored half-wall just big enough for three people to duck and cover behind. The half-wall has a computer terminal embedded into it and joins one long side of the transporter room, which is dominated by an arranged row of {{spheroid dropship}}s up to the point where the half-wall attaches. The other long side has a quarantine airlock directly to Sick Bay situated between the teleporter pad and an entrance into the corridors leading to the rest of the ship. The wall section between the airlock and the corridor looks like the corridor walls — the wall is rough and knobbly like an exercise climbing wall and there's a dead-end pipe with an airlock into the aquatic express lane. The last short wall of the room has a large garage-like door next to a series of smaller crawl-space-sized access panels, all of which lead to a small storage room. Two mechanical tentacle-arms have free roam of the ceiling and can reach any point in the room for the purpose of assisting cargo or less mobile people on and off the teleporter pad.
* '''Sick Bay:''' Hovering pods for individual patients maneuver themselves from storage racks on the ceiling to various medical stations and rooms for patients.[[note]]descriptions of stations and sick rooms coming soon maybe[[/note]] Currently one pod is out of the room.
** '''Quarantine Room''': Uses a blueprint similar to a holding cell in The Brig.
** '''Medical Library''': For the purposes of brainstorming and memory-refreshing, you can grab an ebook, sit down among the shelves and browse the centralized computer databanks, or you can enter one of multiple small holodecks that are programmed to simulate elaborate three-dimensional StringTheory images.
* '''Corridors:''' With different lanes for [[BizarreAlienLocomotion different locomotions]], the corridors are complex enough to require a very detailed description. They twist and turn so that if the ArtificialGravity goes haywire, there's only a short distance to fall in each direction. Humanoids generally walk in the middle of the floor.
** '''Arboreal Express Lanes:''' Dangling from the high ceiling where it meets the walls are evenly spaced mixtures of criss-crossing tree-branch mockups, interrupted by the occasional trapeze or swinging ring. Such structures are limited to directly above the pipes (see below). The space above pedestrians' heads is not part of the ceiling jungle gym, for that's where the dimmer-bulb lights are installed.
** '''Aquatic Express Lanes:''' Where the floor meets the walls, large transparent water pipes run, curving through protruding wall corners. At regular intervals along the pipes are airlock-like escape hatches.
** '''[[MouseWorld Small Runner]] Express Lanes:''' In between the water pipes and the rest of the floor are two yellow lanes with small circular bumps, wide enough for a raccoon to run on. Additionally, the joints where the pipe sections attach to each other are decorated with short, evenly spaced rods lying parallel to the pipes. The rods' purpose is less than obvious -- miniature ladders for miniature crew members.
** '''Walls:''' The tall walls are rough with lots of inert knobs for handholds and footholds, with communications or maintenance panels positioned on strategically placed wall bulges. At regular intervals are hollows in the wall, each with a peculiar potted plant that looks like an African Violet except the leaves are black and the flowers glow. These plants are there just in case the lights and/or atmosphere control systems fail.
* '''Rec Room:''' A comfortably spacious room piled with bean bag chairs and blankets.
* '''The Brig:''' A series of holding cells, each with their own airlock, Faraday cage, and ''el-kor'' field. The el-kor field is the equivalent of a Faraday cage for blocking telepathy, telekinesis, and teleporting. Other security measures not yet specified.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:The Wilderness]]
* '''Ghost Town:''' Moderate-sized town (formerly around 7,000 occupants) that was abandoned years ago. The place has become overgrown and wild animals have set up habitats within it - rather like Pripyat in the Ukraine. Currently under TeleportInterdiction; teleport out of it is possible, but into or within it is not.
** '''[[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=40#comment-977 General Store and Motel]]:''': These two buildings are across the street from each other. The motel has two shot bandit corpses inside, [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=40#comment-993 one with his heart displaced]].
** '''[[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=40#comment-992 Disused Well]]:''' This well is full of mud, hence why it's disused. One of the nearby buildings is on fire.
** '''[[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=41#comment-1004 Clock Tower]]:''' A run-down tower with a giant clock missing its hands makes a decent but obvious vantage point for snipers.
** '''City Hall (former):''' A three-story building that once stood in the center of town. Used to serve as a base of operations for Black Morgan. Was leveled by an overzealous Haydn's fire spell during a raid on the building.
* '''Forest:''' A dark, forbidding forest populated by strange animals and scattered with overgrown ruins. There is a cave near the east edge, and an improvised leading from that cave to the edge, where all the vegetation has been either hacked down or trampled.
** '''Forest Ruins:''' A bunker and a radio tower overrun by kudzu. Supposedly contains an ancient repository on dragons. Animals tend to avoid the place.
* '''Smaller River:''' Originating within the Forest, the smaller river flows under The Scar and into the Harbor.
** '''Edge of the Forest:''' Sufficiently alert trackers will be able to notice [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=11#252 horse hair caught on the bark of the outermost trees]]. A few steps south into the grasslands, there's a [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=15#353 D'voreem corpse with a broken skull]] lying in a trampled path of grass leading south.
** '''Intersecting The Scar:''' The muddy riverbanks both upstream and downstream of The Scar have lots of equine hoofprints. The northern riverbank's hoofprints upstream of The Scar has the majority of the hoofprints, muddled in every direction. The northern riverbank's hoofprints downstream of The Scar point downstream towards the sea. The southern riverbank's hoofprints downstream of The Scar point upstream, but do not reappear upstream of The Scar.
** '''Mouth of the Smaller River:''' RoadApples have been left along the beach. Discerning trackers will be able to tell the manure came from [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=7#166 horses]]. The [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=8#180 desperate, weak homunculus]] previously there was driven off.
* '''Grasslands''': In between the two rivers grows grass tall enough to tickle a horse's belly.
** '''Battlefield:''' Starting where the Smaller River exits the forest, a [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=15#353 D'voreem corpse with a broken skull]] lies in a wide trampled path of grass leading south. Further along the trampled path, [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=15#354 a large circle of grass]] has been trampled flat. In this circle is a headless D'voreem corpse, [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=15#371 its head sliced cleanly off]] and missing somewhere in the untrampled grass, and its [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=19#453 torso is torn open with its heart missing]]. At the edge of this circle, another D'voreem corpse has been [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=15#371 thoroughly trampled]]. The trampled path of grass continues south to the Exsylvan Tributary.
* '''Larger River:''' This river has three tributaries from the Forest, Mt. Bifrons, and near the Necropolis. These three tributaries join and flow under The Scar and into the Harbor.
** '''Spirit Tributary:''' The first and longest tributary starts in between the Necropolis and Mt. Bifrons and flows north (within sight of the Necropolis) before taking a sharp turn for a long journey east (within sight of the edge of the Forest). Its waters carry a chill that is usually described as death-like.
** '''Bifrons Tributary:''' Originating from Mt. Bifrons' hot springs, this tributary flows north down the mountain and joins the Spirit Tributary where the river turns northeast. As the waters mingle, the last lingering warmth of the hot springs and the last lingering chill of the Necropolis cancel each other out.
** Tricky Section:[[note]]Administrivia/NeedsABetterName[[/note]] Caution is recommended for attempts to ford the river along this stretch. Sufficiently careful attempts will generally succeed, but getting cocky about it is TemptingFate.
** '''Exsylvan Tributary:''' Originating within the forest, this tributary flows east out of the forest and joins where the river turns east before flowing under The Scar.
*** '''Trail from Grassland Battlefield''' A [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=22#comment-534 wide path of trampled grass ends at the tributary's northern riverbank]], with scattered deposits of RoadApples directly [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=23#comment-574 across the tributary from the trail]].
** Seabound Section:[[note]]feel free to rename[[/note]] At this point, there's so much water that fording the river is dangerous and difficult, it is recommended that travelers cross at The Scar instead.
* '''Hellmouth:''' A piece of Hell that has merged with the world, where devils roam seeking mortal souls.
* '''Hollow Mounds:''' A cluttered group of skyscraper-sized termite nests. Its original inhabitants have been long gone, but many other beings may have made it their new home.
* '''Mount Bifrons:''' A twin mouthed volcano surrounded by a forest where rivers of lava flow around trees that have turned to black glass.
** '''The Lava Lake:''' A lake of lava sitting in the middle of the forest surrounding Mount Bifrons. May be home to a demon.
* '''Necropolis:''' A hill where the dead have slept through the ages. Towering Mausoleums overgrown by vegetation, graveyards built on top of buried pyramids, labyrinthine crypts that have no end nor beginning, and even long-abandoned archives holding lost knowledge. It is a peaceful region, silent and welcoming like an open grave.
** '''Avenue of Angels:''' A route through the Necropolis lined with ancient, uniform mausoleums, gnarled trees, and rather disturbing angel statues.
** '''Cody's Cove:''' A series of crypts where a wayward ten-year-old has decided to take up residence.
* '''Sun-Dry Sea:''' A dried up sea where coral and other sea life still lives, while alien jellyfish float freely through the air, and various beasts roam the ground.
** '''The Salt Swamp:''' A shallow group of puddles made of undrinkable salt water and hardy plants, home to small flies that feast on the corpses of nearby dead animals.
* '''"Ridge":''' A humongous canyon, filled with tough vegetation and wildlife, and rock formations in shapes possible only through erosion over time. Some of the walls sport large holes, though what made them does not seem to be around anymore.
* '''Rainforest:''' A relatively small but heavily overgrown wooded area. It's very warm and humid here, with frequent rainfall... in fact, the place generates its own climate. Home to many birds and giant insects and various treetop critters, and dotted with suspiciously deep pools, as well as a murky river with dolphins that may or may not be friendly.
** '''The Caves of the Abyss:''' The pools in the rainforest are just the surface of a vast network of water-filled caverns. The water is very clear and fresh but also very dark, and strange fish inhabit its depths. It also contains pockets of dry caverns above the water level, hidden within mounds in the rainforest.
** '''Northwest Scar Entrance:''' Just beyond the trees, [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=32#comment-786 on the floor of The Scar]] is a bloodstain and thoroughly shattered bones missing their marrow. The remains are from a [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=30#comment-727 juvenile moufreta]], but the bones are too fragmented to make that immediately obvious. A little further in, alert enough trackers will notice [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=36#comment-878 a light dusting of ash]] on the bottom of the trench.
** '''Path of Dead Trees:''' A trail of dead trees leading away from The Scar. Presumably, the missing child walked this way and the curse on him killed the trees. Seenarnha has left a dozen blue Christmas baubles at eye level along the trail, starting from The Scar. A yellow Christmas bauble marks where a dragonhorse split from the party.
** '''Mirage-Mangled Corpse:''' The trail of dead trees ends in [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=55#comment-1363 a deadly mirage holding a small child's circulatory and nervous systems]] on display.
*** A {{spheroid dropship}} belonging to the Web of Friendship Scouter Hummingbird is parked nearby. [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=57#comment-1411 Its beacon is active]] to broadcast a warning to stay away from the deadly mirage.
** '''[[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=40#comment-999 Shriveled Moufreta Corpse]]:''' A short distance off the beaten track, a juvenile moufreta has had all its blood messily extracted through a rather large rasped hole in its neck.
* '''Warpfields:''' An abandoned battlefield warped by chaotic magics, where spellcasters must worry about magical backlash and possible mutations.
** '''Petrifying Pond:''' On the border of the Warpfields is a tiny pond, marked with three close-together stone trees and an unfortunate petrified duck. Don't drink or swim in it.
** '''Suspiciously Knobbly Ginormous Stone:''' Twenty miles east of the petrifying pond is a humongous stone. With the right perspective, it looks like a half-buried reptilian foot clenched into an approximation of a fist, but with too many digits that have too many joints.
* '''Wasteland:''' Nothing has grown here in centuries, nor is anything likely to ever grow again in the sterilized soil. Water isn't hard to come by, but precautions should be taken before drinking it. Numerous magical, technological and magitech ruins.
* '''Fields of Abyss:''' A gentle steppe pockmarked with enormous kilometer-wide holes ringed with metal that seem to drop down into the core of the planet itself. No one knows just why they're here or what they're for, but the locals- if one can even call the City's residents that- treat the area with a measure of reverence.
* '''Coast of Chills:''' This strip of coastland has stormy seas and high, chilling winds. The sea here is dotted by icebergs and windswept rock islands.
** '''Cave of Secrets:''' Nobody knows where the entrance to this cave is, except that it's somewhere on the Coast of Chills. Unlike the watery caves underneath the rainforest, these are supposedly dry.
* '''Harbor:''' Located right next to the city, it is the gateway for ocean travel around the continent. On the surface it seems benign, but who knows what hides beneath its gentle waters.
* '''Island:''' Located at the mouth of the harbor and home to interesting flora and strange landmarks.
** '''Island Ruins:''' Ruins with strange topology.
* '''The Scar:''' The Scar is an enormous concrete trench that wends a circuitous path across the breadth of the continent. Whatever process used to create it obliterated whatever terrestrial feature stood in its way without exception- forests, rivers, entire mountains- and left a uniform grey floor and slanted walls in their place. The Scar was named before the City's explorers charted it far enough to realize that it formed a closed loop, as the curvature is shallow enough so as to be unnoticeable from an individual perspective. At any given point, it appears to run straight, and those few parties that venture out from the City use it as a convenient road of sorts to get from place to place.
** '''[[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=2#28 Chitara's Wagon]]:''' Mobile purveyors of assorted delights. [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15194176290A98089200&page=15#359 Packed up and left town.]]

[[folder:Creatures]]
When wandering the wilderness, one is liable to encounter any number of creatures, dangerous or otherwise. Some are animals, while others are of a more anomalous nature. In either case, their origins are unknown, and wanderers are advised to be on their guard when exploring lest they run afoul of any of the local wildlife, such as it is.
* '''D'voreem:''' Large carnivorous primates (about 1.6-1.8m tall when standing erect on hind legs, 70-90kg). Humanlike hands, prehensile feet with elongated, finger-like, toes - all digits tipped with sharp non-retractable claws. Pointed snouts with sharp carnivorous teeth; large cat-like ears. Climb very well, jump considerable distances from branch to branch in arboreal settings, run on all fours at around 50km/h on the ground. Operate in packs of 10-20 individuals, preferring to surround their prey, use relay tactics to herd and tire their prey if necessary but will attack camp sites ''en masse'' or stalk, surround and ambush slower-moving prey. Prefer arboreal settings, found primarily in the Forest and Ghost Town.
* '''Graveskitter:''' An undead creature made from a collection of bones and half-rotten muscle tissue in the shape of a random number of vaguely insectoid legs, surrounding a small spherical core with a few eyes haphazardly strewn over it. They come in different sizes, but are usually never more than half a meter or so in width or height. They feed on WildMagic, especially the kind associated with necromancy or other dark arts, and can often be seen skittering about in haunted crypts or on battlefields where spells were used, sucking magic from the corpses to sustain themselves, conveniently making them stay dead. Graveskitters are mostly harmless and tend to flee when disturbed, but have been known to occasionally attack careless magic users. They hate sunlight and loud noises. Found primarily near the Hellmouth and in the Warpfields. Mysteriously absent from the Necropolis, aside from maybe one or two that went wandering.
* '''Zebreer:''' A herbivore with the appearance of a zebra with a deer-like head with black antlers. Usually found in Sun-Dry Sea, feeding on the hardy pale grasses that grow there, but can also be seen wandering around other nearby areas.
* '''Gloamfeeder:''' These beings resemble tall humanoid figures with mottled green-black skin. Each stands at least three meters tall, with elongated limbs and necks, and they have a massive vertical gash running from their eyeless heads down their entire front, throats and bellies open as if split with a blade. They are so named because, though sightings are rare, they can most commonly be glimpsed in the twilight hours feeding on corpses of the recently deceased, tearing them apart and shoving the pieces into their open maws. It is unknown if they are aggressive or simply scavengers, but it's not unheard of for people to go mysteriously missing when out wandering at dusk.
* '''Homunculus:''' Amorphous and vaguely humanoid masses of doughy flesh, Homunculi have the capacity to alter the shape and texture of their bodies to resemble other humanoids they encounter. They only do this however if the individual they are attempting to imitate is dead- or, in the case they are not, making sure of it themselves. Their bodies are capable of projecting chitinous spurs they use for attacking in close-quarters, and who knows what other offensive abilities. If left for long enough without a host, a Homunculus might attempt to imitate an inanimate object, though they will typically displace or destroy the original before attempting to do so- and humanoids are always preferred to objects. It is for this reason that a Homunculus that is posing as an object will attempt to kill and imitate the first living being it sees.
* '''Shriver:''' Six-limbed humanoids dressed head-to-toe in tattered dust-colored robes, ancient sigils tracing the hems and sleeves. The only thing visible of them beneath their robes is a long proboscis that hangs down from under their hoods, and few get close enough to discover more because- without exception- they attack all others on sight. Shrivers can conjure a black mass of corrosive particles which they hurl at trespassers, and like a swarm of locusts under the Shriver's direction, these particles follow and devour their target until nought but bleached bones remain.
* '''Skvader:''' A small six-limbed herbivore that resembles a feathered hare or rabbit with two wings sprouting from it's back. While incapable of true flight, these creatures can often be seen performing impressive feats of jumping and gliding. Both the skvaders themselves and their large, oddly colorful eggs are considered quite delicious by some people. They are attracted by the scent of alcoholic beverages. Found primarily in the Forest, Ridge and Ghost Town areas.
* '''Aeon-bloom:''' an unusual plant, with an underground rhizome and thorny, twisted, entangled stalks protruding from the ground. At the top of each there is a large flower with spiral pieces, stamens becoming white petals, petals becoming green leaves and leaves shrinking into thorns as it grows, so it always seems to be blooming. The tips of the petals emit a faint, pulsating green glow in the night, as if it was sending a signal. The plant is indeed doing so, and should someone decode it they would notice that the plant is monitoring soil conditions and broadcasting said information. They are specially common in the Graveyard, and almost completely absent in the Sun-dry Sea, the Wasteland and Mount Bifrons.
* '''Moufreta:'''
** Juveniles of the species are frail, 2 meter long, raptor-like omnivores with lanky, underdeveloped bat-wing-like arms. While highly curious, they aren't terribly bright, and can be quite aggressive.
** Adults can grow up to 15 meters or more, with a distinct theropod build. They can fly and breath fire.
* '''Ashwalker:''' These creatures resemble emaciated corpses with ashen skin, with heads like slugs, grey blobs with a single puckered orifice in the center that belches fire. Metal objects held in their grip as improvised weapons inexplicably become red-hot, and though individually they are fairly weak, their ashen nature makes them unnaturally tough and they are rarely found alone. Ashwalkers are invariably hostile to strangers and adventurers, and what's more, they appear to share some degree of collective consciousness. It has been commonly observed that if one of them notices a fresh victim, all of them become aware of the intruder.
* '''Mirage:''' A flicker, an odd reflection, a shimmering silhouette. These may be the last things you ever see. It is unknown whether Mirages can even truly be called creatures, but the threat they pose is mythical to the City's residents. Mirages are typically bound to specific areas, which become incredibly dangerous to traverse. Victims are found arranged in impossible positions- limbs bent at mathematically precise angles, partially phased through the environment, or even just hanging in mid-air, body sectioned and re-arranged into a collage of carnage that all who gaze upon it can't help but describe as inexplicably beautiful.
* '''Witch Snake:''' A nocturnal snake dwelling in forests, plains, or anywhere where small rodents may dwell. Identified by a purple and black diamond pattern. While they have fangs, they are not venomous... in the usual sense. Instead they provoke prey into biting them back and squirt their corrosive blood into the wound. What is even more peculiar about them is their innate magical ability; their blood contains a curse that makes it even more corrosive and also eats away at a victim's life force. Additionally, they are very difficult to kill; they are thought to become undead after reproducing. On the flip side, they are quite intelligent and easy to tame, and leave much larger creatures alone unless threatened. Due to being attracted to ambient magic, quite a few of them inhabit the Warpfields and the Hellmouth.
* '''Sneeder Bird:''' Named after their call (which sounds like "'''Snee'''der, '''snee'''der, '''snee'''der, '''sneet'''!"), this stealthy bird likes to hide and sing at dawn and dusk, trying to lure predators (for example, humans) into a fruitless chase. The longer a sneeder bird can hold the attention of a predator without being spotted, the more impressed the sneeder bird's potential mates will be. The song has a psychic component to [[CuriosityKilledTheCast artificially boost the curiosity of other species to dangerous levels]]. This bird can be heard everywhere, but favors staging its chases in areas with less visibility, like forests and buildings.
* '''Wild Pigplant:''' Basically a pig with chlorophyll in its skin. Mainly sunbathes and scavenges corpses, but also eats plants in a pinch. Can be distinguished from its domesticated counterpart by the thorns and tusks, erect ears, {{red eyes|TakeWarning}}, HairTriggerTemper, and superior strength, speed and intelligence.
* '''Domestic Pigplant:''' Basically a pig with chlorophyll in its skin. Mainly sunbathes and eats farmer-provided slop. Can be distinguished from its wild counterpart by floppy ears, green eyes, dimwitted and docile nature, slow flabby muscles gone to waste, and lack of thorns and tusks.
