Lonelywood Forest The Time of Troubles & Era of Upheaval We would like to welcome you to our homebrewed Forgotten Realms campaign setting. Inspired By Ed Greenwood

The Lonelywood Forest is an isolated stretch of woodlands that is mostly unexplored located in the Icewind Dale region of the north just east of the settlement of Lonelywood. The woods of Lonelywood were situated on the northeastern shore of Maer Dualdon. A variety of woodland creatures typically found in the North made their home in the Lonelywood Forest, including hares, foxes, bears, and wolves.

The Lonelywood forest provided a continual source of lumber for the people of the Ten Towns. It is considered the greatest economic asset that benefited the people of Lonelywood town.

The nomadic Reghedmen tribesmen used lumber from the Lonelywood forest in the construction of the modular, deerskin tents they set up when forming their camps. In addition to its abundant natural resources, the woods offered a natural barrier to the people of Lonelywood town. Raiding parties often missed the small hamlet entirely thanks to the forest's protection. Circa the Year of the Cold Soul, 1281 DR, half-elven ranger of Lonelywood, Emmerich Hawk is a protector of the forest. On behalf of Silvanus, Emmerich regulates the activities of loggers and trappers.

At least two types of supernatural beings were known to have dwelled in the woods, which could not be any more different that one another. At least a small number of chwingas and a single banshee, the spectral remains of a particularly malevolent elven woman.

Clergy of Silvanus and locals believed that great white wolves, who appeared rarely in the Lonely Wood, were messengers of the Oakfather, who would carry the deity's vengeance out.
