King's Forest

King's Forest is a canonical Forest / Woodland located in the Kingdom of Cormyr, prominently surveyed on the regional map spanning From Sunset to Sembia.

Overview & Canon History

The King's Forest was so named because it is the property of the crown. A network of roads pass through this forest that connects many small towns and farms in Cormyr. The flora primarily consists of maple, oak, and rowan trees that create high canopies. There is very little undergrowth. In the 14th century DR there were no major predators within the forest and it was devoid of intelligent monsters. Due to this lack of natural threats it was densely inhabited and a popular spot for hunting, though such activity was forbidden. After the Goblin War ended in 1371 DR, the forest became infested with orcs.
