Forest of Wyrms

Forest in The Western Heartlands · Ss'kowlyn'raa (its yuan-ti name)

The Forest of Wyrms is a dark and dangerous forest of the Western Heartlands, full of giant redwoods and the serpentfolk of old Najara.

Cool mist pools between pines and redwoods with trunks wider than a cottage, and thorny helmthorn closes every gap.

Overview

The Forest of Wyrms lies between the Serpent Hills and the Trielta Hills, just south of the Winding Water. Its giant redwoods and pines leave little growth on the forest floor, except for dense helmthorn brush.

True to its name, it is a home of serpentfolk: yuan-ti, ophidians and lizardfolk of the kingdom of Najara, whose old capital lies buried at its western edge.
