Tales of the Living Rainforest — WoG

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Tales of the Living Rainforest is a large underground map for five players, each playing against the others with no teams, and every player is human-controlled. It covers a 108 by 108 tile area that is roughly half rock and half swamp, with a small share of water. The story in the author's note concerns a witchdoctor who unleashed a deadly tome in the jungle, bringing stone statues of beasts and dead emperors back to life. Every player may choose from eight factions. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing every town and hero. Six towns are on the map, along with 28 mines, 25 creature banks, and 10 monoliths and portals. Wandering monsters include hydras, gnoll marauders, and basilisks, and placed artifacts include the Titan's Gladius and the Thunder Helmet.

Author's description

800 years ago, a demented witchdoctor discovered the Ancient Tome of Pestilence and unleased its deadly power deep within the jungles of the Amazon. The result was the summoning of spirits to resurrect stone statues of wild beasts and deceased emperors that will live to conquer the Amazon forever.
