Sprawled across the southeastern hills lays the foreboding Glomdoring forest. It is a place where shadows live and nightmares manifest. Those who venture uninvited returned shaken, mumbling incoherently of monsters of thorn and soil, horrors of shadow. Under the malevolent gaze of Crow and Mother Night the community of Glomdoring has come to name the place home. Within its shadowy borders, five guilds came to existence: The Shadowdancers, Blacktalon, Ebonguard, Harbingers, and Nekotai. Together they work as a single unit to spread the glory of their forest throughout the Basin, personifying the wrath and power that are Glomdoring. Weakness is not tolerated and total loyalty is demanded. Those weak of heart and mind have nothing to seek in the forest of no mercy.


Landmarks

The Black Tower

Rising high among the trees of the Glomdoring forest is the Black Tower. Set on the northeastern part of the forest, it houses the different needs of the trades of the commune as well as a number of other important places and artifacts such as the Arcane Library of Glomdoring and the Chamber of Night. At the peak of the Tower is Night's Needle, wrought from crimson chitin and houses the astrolabe of the forest.

Spider's Larder

Silky webs coat the glade at the center of the Glomdoring with the various creatures of the forest converging on this spot. Deadly black widow spiders lurk on the branches of the trees while vipers slither on the undergrowth. As the geographical center of the forest, the Larder serves as the crossroads to many avenues leading to other important locations in the Glomdoring.
