Lostway

1.0.0 (Minecraft 1.20.1, Forge)

First release.

A rare dark forest in the Overworld, about as rare as a jungle, made of five biomes that always grow together: Deep Wood, Bramble Thicket, Sunlit Glade, Misty Hollow and Mire Wood. Each one has its own fog.

The lost way: deep in the woods the fog thickens, compasses and map arrows spin, and F3 hides your coordinates (can be turned off in the config).

Three new woods with the full set of blocks, signs, hanging signs, boats and chest boats: gloomwood, mistwillow and gnarlwood. Giant gloomwood trees, weeping mistwillows and dead gnarlwood oaks.

Moss, leaf litter, fallen logs, rocks, ferns, clover, shelf fungi, pale toadstools, glowcaps, rushes, cattails, duckweed, golden grass and flower bushes. Blackberry bushes and thorny brambles that scratch.

A beam of sunlight with golden dust in the glades, gas bubbles in the mire.

The three beasts, each in its own lair: the Lonza in the brambles, the Lion in the glades and the She-Wolf in the misty hollows. The She-Wolf can't be killed: she runs away and comes back a few days later.

Unique drops: Apple of Temptation, Lonza Boots, Lion Crown and She-Wolf Pelt.

The Sunlit Hill: a rare hill just outside the woods, always at dawn on top, with a pink and gold glow you can see from deep in the trees. A path winds up to Virgil's house.

Virgil lives on the hill and talks to you. His door only opens once you have faced the three beasts; until then he answers from behind it.

The Beasts' Shrine by his door gives you the Beast Compass, which leads to the nearest lair of the beast you choose and skips the ones you've already cleared. Each beast you defeat lights its gem on the shrine. Beat all three and the compass becomes the Memento of the Dark Wood.

Map to the Sunlit Hill: paper, golden grass and gloomwood planks or gloom moss. Unroll it and it turns into a treasure map with an X on the nearest hill.

Creatures: deer, boars, owls, crows, songbirds, butterflies, ducks, snails, shades, bramble spiders, will-o'-the-wisps, mist wolves and blight wolves.

Naturalist compatibility: its deer and boars live in the woods instead of Lostway's own.
