Pine Woods

The Pine Woods are named for the copious amount of pine trees that grow in the area. This wooded area is not dense like The Black Forest. Instead, the trees are fairly spaced, allowing vegetation to grow below, though it does not grow thickly. There are a few small clearings scattered throughout the territory, most of them home to ponds and short grasses. While other species of trees do inhabit these woods, pines are the most common, giving these lands a pleasant pine smell. There are many hills and dips in the land, but none of them make travel difficult. Large boulders and clumps of rocks are dotted throughout the area, making it the perfect territory for cougars. Small packs of wolves can also be found in the area, though they typically pursue smaller prey such as small species of deer, large rabbits, and boars. Black bears also wander the area, but are usually seen hunting large fish from the very tiny rivers that flow from the ponds. No force-claiming may happen here.
