Clawed Forest
The Clawed Forest is a seemingly dead Forest within Evermare made of leafless Nemuritor Oaks. They are anything but however, as the trees are very much alive, though, their thin branches are so frail and weak that even mild winds can move them and cause them to get hooked onto other trees or even sapeints.
Geography
The Clawed Forest is a fairly large forest within the plains of Evermare, filled with Nemuritor Oaks, there is a nearby river, which allows the trees to survive, it is covered in Necroa grass. The trees are packed rather close together, offering a few desire paths made by those who wondered in through the tangle of branches, though none seem to lead to the proper other side of the forest. The Forest itself is quite deep, with most only having got inside around it's halfway point. From the outside of the forest looking east, Moongaze Hill can be seen.
Localized Phenomena
Due to the pressense of the Nemuritor Oak's claw like branches, many who enter feel on edge and hopeless while within
Climate
The Clawed Forest is rather temperate, with little major changes around the seasons, though it is often fairly windy.
Fauna & Flora
There are several Nemuritor Oaks that make up the forest alongside a blanket of Necroa grass that covers the entire Forest Floor sans the paths of the people that entered. Various sapient species once lived here too, the main one being a sapeint species known as Lunar Deer, that lived within The Clawed Forest back in it's glory days, many of whom now live in the rural lands of Evermare instead of the cities due to their grudge against the former for basically destroying their home. species type of bacteria known as ghost bacteria live in the forest, feeding on old and rotting fruit/trees, originally not many colonies of them lived and cases of them devouring trees were rare, but ever since the mid 50's, the forest's rotting has caused the ghost bacteria to thrive and go absolutely wild, causing more cases of "Hauntings" of Bacteria then ever before.
History
The Clawed Forest was once a thriving land, as it's Nemuritor Oaks where once lively with bright blue leaves, some even say a rare kind of Lunar Deer lived within, though, starting way back into mid 1950's, the forest started to decay, as Auroraș started to grow, building more and more tourist hotspots that slowly started to pour gasous pollutents into the forest, causing it to slowly rot away until what it is today, a ruin of what once stood.
Tourism
Some sapients tend to wonder into the forest, often out of curiosity for the tall tales and rumors of supernatrual events, though many don't stay long due to the fear of the such events.
