The Charred Forest is an area of Hatchwood Wilds opened up for the first time in Charred Forest Rescue (MD0208).
Overview[]
In the Charred Forest, the air is filled with smoke and the sky is red. Trees and plant life are bare, and the ground is a dark brown. Fires can be seen raging in the background.
The Charred Forest was set on fire by the local Ferric tribe to halt the advance of Mimics. However, this only worsened the situation, and actually strengthened many of the Mimics. It continues to rage with heat and smoke long after the Guardian has been slain.
The Charred Forest is home to a unique group of Mimics, some of which have added the properties of fire to their bodies as an additional defensive mechanism, while others have fled to the safety of the Evergreen Lake. Coming into contact with any of the flaming Mimics will cause burns. Embers on walls and Embermites do not cause burns, but are still dangerous to the touch. Burning tree barriers are actually harmless but still serve as obstacles.
It is also later home to the Blast Furnace which is located in a small room above the checkpoint on the eastern edge.
Sprocket Information[]
Hatchwood Wilds: Evergreen Lake: Evergreen Lake is a thin, long lake whose western coast stretches into the now Charred Forest where it is only 1000 feet across. Its coastline stretches for 6.5 miles. It was a major water source for the surrounding Ferric camps.
Hatchwood Wilds: Charred Forest: To the west of Camp Calluna lies the dangerous Charred Forest. Once lush and green, the forest was set ablaze by the residents of Camp Calluna. The fire was the camp's last resort to purge the growing Mimic threat.
