Caislen Campaign Notes

The Mistwood is a forest that engulfs both Oakenshire to the south and to the north Havenspass.

Its western boundary is the Stormhill Mountains and eastern boundary is the Cloudfire Mountains.

The name itself comes from the constant almost cloud like fog and mist that perpetuate the place. Humidity is intense. Usually when people refer to “The Mistwood” they're referring to just the section between Oakenshire & Havenspass however as that's the range of the densest fog.

One main road goes through it all the way to the northern port city of Mythburg for purposes of trade & travel. There are lesser paths, but for the most part it's a single north/south road scenario.

Lately, for no reason anyone has explained, undead seem to be a threat in the forest.

Mushrooms grow really well with the gloom and humidity here. Sometimes they end up on pizzas at Nailati in Havenspass, and sometimes one might wonder if there are far more complex things in The Mistwood involving fungi.

While it has plenty of variety of trees, vines, mushrooms and other plant life, it does grow a namesake kind tree simply called “Mistwood”. Mistwood is a hardwood tree that thrives in the normally foggy environment of the forest. Luckily for the locals Mistwood also has a great value as an export and has been an economic boon over time. Mistwood grows best at higher elevations which makes it most abundant closer to Havenspass where elevation ranges up to 5000 feet.

There is a Wood Guild in Havenspass that has great interest in sustainably logging the forest.

“Lethal Leaf Hole” - a dungeon on the southwestern side of The Mistwood. It was entered by Urist & Jules as they attempted to track down fellow Party member Alimir who had turned into a werewolf. It is notably entered by jumping into a pile of seemingly living and moving fallen leaves that plug the 30 foot long vertical shaft style entrance.

Locally Known Dungeon #1 - Just to the southwest of Havenspass off of a road that leads toward the Stormhill Mountains is a dungeon that people tangle with sometimes. Left for PCs to explore for now without more detail.

Locally Known Dungeon #2 - Off to the east and slight north of Havenspass is a locally known dungeon that people tangle with sometimes. Left for PCs to explore for now without more detail.
