−

The '''Woodland Realm''' is a sanctuary in Mirkwood for the [[Wood-elf|Wood-elves]] of Middle-earth, their ruler being King Thranduil, father of Legolas Greenleaf.

−

Mirkwood was once a vast and beautiful forest known as Greenwood the Great, but was given its current name after [[Mirkwood Corrupted|nearly all of the region]] fell under [[Sauron|Sauron's]] shadow over the course of the Third Age. Only a small portion in the north of the forest remained uncorrupted and protected by the Elves, which is the Woodland Realm.

−

The area is heavily forested with [[Mirk-Oak Tree|Mirk-oaks]] (only light green and red variant) and various other trees from Vanilla and the mod, making it the ideal home for the nature-loving [[Wood-elf|Wood-elves]]. Giant Mirk-oaks also grow here, making this biome ideal for the treehouse-dwelling player.

−

Upon entering this region of Mirkwood, you gain the [[Achievements|achievement]] "Guest of the Elvenking".

−

== Sub-biomes ==

−

=== Woodland Realm Hills ===

−

These hills form the heartlands of the Woodland Realm. The [[Biomes|biome]] contains steep, rolling hills, making travel through this part of the area more challenging. The vegetation on the hills is lusher than in the surrounding lowlands. The tree-density is higher and almost half of all [[Mirk-Oak Tree|Green-oak trees]] have grown to huge size, proving ample opportunities for [[Wood-elf Lookout Platform|Wood-elven 'eyes in the sky']].

−

Structures that spawn in the Woodland Realm biome also appear here. The Woodland Realm Hills biome is an ideal place to construct underground halls (like that of the Elvenking), due to the tall hills that offer large amounts of underground building space.

−

== Variants ==

−

The Woodland-realm biome includes the following variants:

−

* Standard - Normal Woodland-realm forest biome.

−

* Forest - Forest covered lands.

−

* Light Forest - Lightly forested lands.

−

* Aspen Forest - A forest dominated with [[Aspen Tree|Aspen trees]].

−

* Birch Forest - A forest dominated with [[Tree#Vanilla_Trees|Birch trees]].

−

* Beech Forest - A forest dominated with [[Beech Tree|Beech trees]].

−

* Larch Forest - A forest dominated with [[Larch Tree|Larch trees]].

−

* Pine Forest - A forest dominated with [[Pine Tree|Pine trees]].

−

== Structures ==

−

A variety of structures spawn in Mirkwood.

−

* [[Wood-Elf House]]s - Houses of the [[Wood-elf|Wood-elves]] that spawn on the ground. A [[Mirk-oak Tree|Green-oak]] grows through the center of the house. On the first floor is a chest plus [[Bow of Mirkwood|bows]] and/or arrows that hang in item frames. On the basement floor, there are bookshelves and a [[Wood-elven Bed|Wood-elven bed]]. There is also a platform on the top of the house.

−

* [[Wood-Elf Lookout Platform]]s - Small lookout platforms that spawn on the trunks of larger Green-oaks in Mirkwood. They are also called "Wood-elven Flets".

−

* [[Wood-elven Tower]]s - Towers of [[Elven Brick|Wood-elven brick]] in the Mirkwood biome. A tall, but thin Green-oak grows through the center of these towers. A staircase goes all the way up, and on each floor are four small balconies. On the top floor is a set of [[Wood-elven Scout Armour]] and a [[Wood-elf Captain]]. The staircase goes down to a basement floor, which has food, [[Red Wine|wine]], tables, and a trapdoor to the dungeon, which contains three cells; occasionally, unarmed and unarmored [[Gundabad Orc|Gundabad]] or [[Dol Guldur Orc|Dol Guldur]] [[Orc]]s, or, rarely, some dwarves of [[Dwarf|Durin's Folk]] will spawn here imprisoned.

−

* [[Elven Smithy|Wood-elven Smithies]] - Circular structures that contain several [[Elven Forge]]s, a crafting table, a [[Wood-elven Crafting Table]], a chest full of loot, and two anvils. A [[Wood-elf Smith]] spawns inside. Smithies appear to be rarer than other Wood-elven structures.

−

⚫

~~== Mobs~~[[Category:Biomes]] ==

−

This biome is populated with various types of Wood-elves. Apart from NPCs, the black butterflies of Mirkwood spawn here, as well as the [[Elk]], cows, sheep, chickens, and [[Wild Boar|wild boars]]. No evil mobs spawn within the Woodland Realm, except for the Orcs in the cells in the dungeons of Wood-elven Towers.

−

* [[Wood-elf|Wood-elves]] - Male or Female, Wood-elves are Silvan Elves that spawn in Mirkwood and Wood-elf Houses.

−

* [[Wood-elf Warrior|Wood-elf Warriors]] - Wood-elves that have become warriors. They have swords and [[Wood-elven Armour|Wood-elven armour]] and can be hired from Wood-elf Captains. They can rarely be found riding [[Woodland Elk]] wearing [[Wood-elven Elk Armor]].

−

* [[Wood-elf Scout|Wood-elf Scouts ]]- Wood-elf Warriors with bows and [[Wood-elven Scout Armour]], which gives them a permanent Speed II effect.

−

* [[Wood-elf Captain|Wood-elf Captains]] - Captains of the Wood-elves that reside in [[Wood-elven Tower]]s. You can hire all of the above from them.

−

* [[Gundabad Orc]] - These Orcs spawn '''only''' in the dungeon cells of Wood-elven Towers in Mirkwood, and you do not have to worry about them here.

−

* [[Dol Guldur Orc]] - Like the Gundabad Orcs, Dol Guldur Orcs only spawn unarmed and unarmored in the dungeon cells of [[Wood-elven Tower]]s.

−

* [[Dwarf|Dwarves]]- These NPC's can only be found in the dungeon cells of the Wood-elven Towers in Mirkwood, albiet very rarely.

−

* [[Wood-elf Smith]]s - Smiths that spawn in [[Elven Smithy|Wood-elven Smithies]]. They sell weapons and armor, in addition to buying minerals.

−

== Vegetation ==

−

The Woodland Realm is less densely forested than [[Northern Mirkwood]] and [[Mirkwood Corrupted]]. It contains a huge variety of trees of the following species: [[Mirk-oak Tree|Green- and Red-oak]], [[Vanilla Trees#Oak Tree|Oak]], [[Vanilla Trees#Spruce Tree|Spruce]], [[Chestnut Tree|Chestnut]], [[Beech Tree|Beech]], [[Larch Tree|Larch]], [[Fir Tree|Fir]] and [[Pine Tree|Pine]]. [[Mirk-oak Tree|Green-oaks]] can be found in normal and large size variations (the large size having [[Wood-elf Lookout Platform|Wood-elven platforms]] on them). The [[Mirk-Oak Tree|Red-Oak trees]] of the [[Woodland Realm]] are, without exception, of a much larger variant than the ones found in [[Northern Mirkwood]].
