Old Forest

"But the Forest is queer...And the trees do not like strangers. They watch you. They are usually content merely to watch you, as long as daylight lasts, and don't do much...But at night things can be most alarming, or so I am told....I thought all the trees were whispering to each other, passing news and plots along in an unintelligable language; and the branches swayed and groped without any wind." Merry, The Fellowship of the Ring, Chapter VI, the Old Forest.

The Old Forest is a biome in Middle-Earth on the outskirts of the Shire. The Old Forest is a large Forest containing normal-hight trees and taller trees as well. However, a few trees are more than meets the eye....

Mobs
No Orcs spawn in the Old Forest, or any mobs besides the normal farm animals and boars. However, be careful when chopping down trees, because some of the short trees are actually Dark Huorns. Dark Huorns will attack any player that tries to chop down any tree. At night, sometimes Dark Huorns will come out at random and attack.

Vegetation
The Old Forest is filled with Oak Trees. They can be normal oaks or taller oaks as seen in the picture on the above right.
