The Jungle
The Jungles of southern Zailleon are dark, hot, and humid places, teeming with wildlife and mystique beneath its foliage, and have been called the “darker counterpart” of the Rainforest region in Cher Plek. The Jungle is more humid than the Rainforest, and contains a different ecosystem and bestiary than it, but cover less land than the Rainforest. There are less rivers and more mountainous areas, and larger trees that can be climbed. While it’s advised against, a quick, but reckless method of travel in the Jungles is through the use of vine-swinging. Deep within the heart of the Jungles is the treetop platform city of Krakua, a city where nature and civilization have merged into a single growth. Much of the foliage of the jungles are made up of gigantic Rumbletrunk Trees, which are known to be used as nests by Green Dragons. These giant trees help make up the larger buildings in Krakua, and often need to be warded from the Green Dragons to prevent them from nesting in them. Another feature of the Jungles is its vast system of underground caverns and tunnels, which often connect seemingly isolated locations in the Jungles together. The tunnels are dangerous, as they are often infested with Leapers and other subterranean creatures.
The Jungles seem to be devoid of temples, which are a common occurrence in the Rainforests of Cher Plek. This is likely due to the more savage nature of the creatures within the Jungle, such as the Dinosoids and the Velociraptors, Drakes and Wyrms. Giant Spiders, however, are common in both regions, and are always a hazard travelers are ever wary of. These giant spiders make their nests within the treetops and in underground burrows, where they congregate. Other spiders can be found in the Jungles, including Skulltulas and Skullwalltulas. Skulltulas are normally found deep in the caverns, preying on stray Leapers that get separated from the pack, while Skullwalltulas are normally found in the outdoors, skittering across vine-covered tree trunks and bluffs.
