Toxxulia Forest
Toxxulia Forest is a large forest on the island of Odus, serving as the Erudite newbie zone and the dark dividing wood separating the cities of Erudin and Paineel.

The forest of Toxxulia is located inland from the costal city of Erudin upon the continent of Odus. The shores of Erud's Crossing lap up to the forest's edge, and together with the lush, emerald vegetation, contribute to the overall natural beauty of this dimly lit and diverse environment.
The Isle of Kerra lies close by, only a few yards off the shore of the forest. The matriarchal kerran settled here shortly after warring with the Erudites, which occurred when the latter first arrived in the region. A dock on the coast contains a few boats that enable adventurers to travel to and from the isle across coastal waters infested with ferocious oceanic creatures.
Kobolds also live in Toxxulia and are natural enemies of the Erudites. A small river flows through the center of the forest, home to schools of vicious piranhas. It is advised that travelers cross this river via a large, white stone bridge, as swimming across could easily prove disastrous.
Several azure huts are stationed throughout the forest. Inside the huts, adventurers may find merchants to sell their wares and purchase supplies. Some within the structures are not so hospitable, however, containing potent undead creatures – remnants of the vile Heretics' experimentations.
