About
The Forest of Angularis is a large area of woodland and forest which partially contains the Hólmlendar. It is a lush environment which includes stone circles, misty dales, eerie ponds, sparkling streams, mysterious ruins and remains of lost civilizations, enigmatic lakes, secluded grottoes, and expansive, marshy lowlands. It stretches from the hinterland of the Shores of Angularis to the Barrowlands from which it is separated by Astopov's Dyke. Tree species to be found in the forest are elm, beech, ash, oak, olive trees and cedars. In the most primal parts of the forest there are trees to be found with trunks as wide as castle gates.
People
Although the number of people inhabiting the forest is small, even in its deepest parts one can find crofters, foresters and hunters. There are also several hermits and othe people who have chosen to live off the grid who have made the Forest of Angularis their home.
Animals
The Fifth Forest is teeming with game. Among the large variety of animals found within the wood are wolves, great elk, deer, spotted tigers, wolves, tree cats, badgers, rabbits, foxes, monstrously huge boars, spotted bears, and a species of lemur.
History
In the days of yore the Forest of Angularis was part of the Forest of Elwynn of ancient lore. It escaped the deforestation policies of the Ardashirian reign due to being located outside the borders the Barony of Elwynn in those days and therefore beyond Baronial control.
