Changes: Hoodlum Falls

Revision as of 00:03, 29 February 2020

Summary

Hoodlum Falls is an autumnal retreat found at the ends of Topple Lake's cascade and streams. It is surrounded by two streams that wanes at both ends of the retreat, and is decorated by several autumnal trees and rocks scattered across the region. It borders three different inland zones, those being Petrified Grassland, Rubble Spring, and The Quiet Field. The Hoodlum Falls borders one major body of water, that being The Far Coast found at the southernmost edge of the zone.

Landmarks

The most distinctive landmark of the Hoodlum Falls is the watermill composing of a three-story building with a working watermill attached to the left. To its right is an elevated bridge platform covered by a green fabric sheet and supported by various wooden beam supports. Entering the building will reveal that the interior have mostly been raided, as evident from flipped tables, broken bottles, and several other junks scattered across the floorboards. At the third floor, adventurers may interact with Arnold Slime, the leader of the bandits and a quest-giver well-known for the rewards he provide to beginners (Pipe Rifle).

The other noticeable feature of Hoodlum Falls is that it is technically within the territories of Rubble Spring, as its streams flows through the secluded retreat into the seas of The Far Coast.

Ecology

Polewatchers and Fallbirds are the dominant bird species indigenous to Hoodlum Falls. Preobirds and Weatherbirds may also flock to this region on occasions, as well as Dust Raptor Birds. Common flora and fungi that flourish in the zone are the Fallichen, Balloon Mushrooms (yellow and purple), and Mushtache Mushrooms.

The autumnal retreat is the main outpost where most of the bandits will often be found at. Rat Dogs and Brown Bears will also appear here frequently, either by itself or in small groups. Besides that, other mobs from other regions may also appear in the zone as well, but not as frequent with mobs mentioned previously.
