Crystal Forest
A dense, dense forest, Crystal Forest gets it’s name from it’s most common tree, Gemmi’s- sought after for their gems and their bark. That said, the forest is largely unexplored- those who have gone usually come back traumatized, either speaking of a monster or with head/bad injuries if even alive. That said, it’s a point of interest- Hardened explorers are known to attempt to conquer both the forest and the Gambit’s Gate, and though none have succeeded, some have told tales that keep explores from going without preparation. It’s a rumored that to enter safely you must appease the Guardian but how exactly is unknown, and to-trial no one has ever gone further than the entrance line. Not much else is known about it.
Name: Resthi
Race: Ithecal (Paltharnum)
Birthday/Age: Arc 676, (45)
Title: Forest Guardian
Skills: Field Craft (Master), Strength (Expert), Hunting (Expert) Axe: War (Master), Athletics (Competent) Detection (Competent), Intimidation (Novice), Navigation (Expert)
Details:A largely solitary Ithecal, Resthi isn’t open with how he got to to Ishallr or what exactly he does and why he stays there. It’s clear he’s been there for a while- as he seems to know the place by hand. But he doesn’t usually appear to others unless its a necessity. He claims to be a loner, enjoying the open and freedom of being the sole caretaker of the forest. Because of his tough skin, Resthi has no problem with the falling gems- but he also doesn’t disturb them save for picking them up and occasionally planting them. While Resthi seems docile and calm, his temper is dangerous. He protects the forest as if it were his one and only home, and he doesn’t let anyone so much a touch a gem if he can stop it. Resthi usually sleeps in the trees and is partially to blame that the forest is largely unexplored.
Short Description: Mostly known for giving the Crystal forest it’s name, Gemmi Trees are a winter tree that tends to bear gems instead of leaves. These gem trees can range, but mostly commonly they’re white opal sprouts. The seem to only grown in very cold temperatures and are known to be massive.
Found: In freezing temperature areas, though they tend to be rarer outside of Ishallr.
Toxicity/Hazard: Depends on the gem they produce, but usually its low to none. When they reach maturity the gems fall off and bloom again so those walking underfoot should be cautious.
Appearance: Gemmi Trees are very, very tall trees that produce gems instead of leaves. The gem they develop depends on the nutrients in their soil, but it’s more often it’s a common seni-precious gem (Opal, Quartz, Jade, Pearl). Rare gems are harder to find, but not impossible. The trunks come in various shades of black and gray, usually the darker ones produce lighter gemstone sand the darkers produce lights.
Properties: Depends on the gem (Opal Gemmis have a darker wood, and the branches tend to to be dark grey and sometimes black. The tree itself might take on characteristics of the gem: opacity, luminescence, etc), but the trunks are known for being very dense and strong- that said the wood is very special and can be used in a number of crafting projects. While the trees only grow to maturity in cold weather, younger sprouts can be harvested and planted elsewhere, though once the remaining gems fall they don’t regrow as the cold stimulates the trees growth. Fire resistant bark extends to the wood depending on the trees maturity- it takes a few arcs for the chemical makeup to be absorbed.
Rarity: Common-Rare
How To Use: Once the gems have fallen they can be picked up and used as any gem would be. The trunks are special wood, and require very good axes and strength to harvest.
Side Effects: Again if the gem has special properties the tree might inherit some but not enough to be worth any trouble. Labradorite Gemmis might be iridescent for example.
